Global description
Ludwigia adscendens is a creeping or floating aquatic herbaceous plant. The creeping stems can reach up to 6 m long. Floating stems bear beams of roots converted into white spindle-shaped floats, emitted at the nodes. The leaves are simple and alternate, located on the emerged stems. They are elliptic oblong to linear lanceolate. The solitary flowers ranging in color from yellow to white, are located on the upper leaf axils. The calyx is in the form of a long tube containing the ovary and surmounted by five sepals. The fruit is a woody capsule more or less cylindrical equipped with 10 ribs. It is reddish brown in color. It contains many small light brown prismatic seeds, included in a corky endocarp.
Cotyledons
The cotyledons are stalked and glabrous. The petiole is 1.5 to 2 mm long. The elliptical blade is 4.5 mm long and 2.5 to 3 mm wide. It is characterized by the presence of a marked midrib of an entire margin, an attenuated base and an apex rounded to slightly notched.
First leaves
The petiole measure 0.5 mm long. It is glabrous or weakly pubescent, with 2 tiny stipules at the base. The lamina is glabrous to pubescent, elliptical, margin entire, obtuse to attenuated base, apex rounded to slightly emarginate. It is 3.5 mm long and 2.8 mm wide. It has a pinnate venation.
General habit
Amphibious perennial herbaceous plant, aquatic or sub-aquatic, creeping on wet soil or floating on the surface of the water with the end of the stems erect.
Underground system
Floating stems bear three kinds of roots: fines long axillary roots that enter the mud, red or black dangling aquatic roots that bear numerous short spread out rootlets , floating fusiform roots (pneumatophores) spread, 1-6 cm long, white or pink, spongy and airing grouped in whorls on floating rods at the nodes.
Stem
The cylindrical stems, hollow, erect, fleshy often red. They measure up to 1 m high, horizontal stems up to 6 m long. They are usually glabrous except for the end of the erect portion which can be strongly pubescent, but in case of drying of the region, the plants can survive on dry soil and thus in this case they are densely pubescent and the flowers are rare.
Leaf
The leaves are simple, alternate, are helically arranged around the stem above the water. Tiny stipules are present, located at different heights. The lamina is oblong, narrow elliptic to obovate, margin entire, acute, obtuse or rounded or even notched apex, base attenuate into a distinct petiole of variable length (1-18 mm). They measure 0.4 to 10 cm long and 0.7 to 4 cm wide. They are glabrous to slightly pubescent on both sides, satin green when they are glabrous, with arched lateral veins paler. Leaves, shorter and wider with rounded top.
Flower
The solitary flowers are arranged on the axils of upper leaves. They are bisexual, long stalked and open only during one day. The tubular calyx pubescent, sometimes glabrous, 10-13 mm long has 5 oblong-lanceolate sub-persistent lobes, 7-9 mm long. The 5 obovate, rounded and emarginate petals are 8 to 20 mm long and 8 to 12 mm wide. They are deciduous. Their color varies from creamy white or very pale yellow with dark yellow to bright yellow base. The stamens are 10 in number. The inferior ovary consists of 4 to 5 cells with many eggs arranged in single rows. The white style measures 6 to 8 mm, densely villous in its lower half. It is topped with a globular green stigma.
Fruit
The fruit is a capsule with 5 loculus, elongated, more or less cylindrical, 1.2 to 3.5 cm long and 3 to 4 mm in diameter, often slightly curved. It is surmounted at the apex by the calyx. It is woody, glabrous or has long soft bristles. Reddish brown in colour, it is marked by 5 darker ribs and 5 rows of bumps. It hangs towards the water at maturity. The numerous seeds are arranged in a row in each loculus. The endocarp splits in corky disks that surround each seed.
Seed
The prismatic seed with 4 corners, measuring 1.3 to 1 mm long. It is pale brown in colour.

Seychelles: Absent.
Comoros: Absent.

Global harmfulness
Ludwigia adscendens is a weed of minor importance in rice ields but can completely invade the surface of waters.
Local harmfulness
Benin: Ludwigia adscendens is a frequent and scarce weed in paddy fieds.
Burkina Faso: Frequent and scarce.
Comoros: Absent.
Ivory Coast: Frequent and scarce.
Ghana: Frequent and usually abundant.
Madagascar: Ludwigia adscendens is a common weed in all rice growing areas of Madagascar. It is locally abundant in lowland rice fields that remain humid or flooded for much of the year. It also infests irrigation and drainage canals often forming a thick dense stand.
Mauritius: It does not represent a problem for crops.
Mali: Rare but abundant when present.
Nigeria: Frequent and scarce.
Reunion: Absent.
Senegal: Frequent and scarce.
Seychelles: Absent.
Chad: Rare and scarce.

📚 Uses and Management
Management
Global management
Ludwigia adscendens is often attacked by leaf-eating insects that destroys it. Tilapia, a fish, feeds on its roots and stems.
The plantlets were easily destroyed by 2,4-D or MCPA.
For weed control tips aquatic weeds of irrigated rice and lowland in Africa, visit: http://portal.wiktrop.org/document/show/21
For weeding Advice broadleaf perennial weeds of irrigated rice and lowland in Africa, visit: http://portal.wiktrop.org/document/show/25
Local management
Madagascar: The manual control Ludwigia adscendens is time consuming, which makes frequent weeds. Pre-emergence, atrazine or diuron give good results. 2,4-D is only effective on young plants. Pyrazosulfuron-ethyl is effective post-emergence, but not available in Madagascar. Glyphosate is effective at any stage (with a larger dose for older plants). They are fairly well mastered by thick vegetation.
