Curlyleaf pondweed (P. crispus L.), water stargrass (Heteranthera dubia (Jacq.) MacM.), and waterplantain (Alisma gramineum (Torr.) Sam. var. Geyeri) are problem weeds in canals in some areas. Most of these waterweeds are rooted in the soil at the bottom and sides of irrigation channels and grow almost entirely beneath the water surface (Fig.
