Abstract: The paper aims to summarize the research status of the genus Vallisneria, which has high value in water ecological restoration. By means of reviewing nearly 30 years relevant researches on Vallisneria biological characteristics, the interaction with environmental factors and the application situation in engineering etc., it was considered that cultivating the species of Vallisneria methodically with other aquatic plants could benefit the landscape construction, and could also be useful for water ecological restoration. Meanwhile, existing problems in researches on this genus were pointed out in this paper. To achieving ecological restoration benefits, three issues were proposed for further study: (1) strengthening publicity and enlarging application; (2) standardizing plant maintenance and developing practical tools; (3) utilizing resources rationally and attaining sustainable development.
