Resource diversity and provenance underpin spatial patterns in functional diversity across native and exotic species
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Ecology and Evolution"
DOI: 10.1002/ece3.3998
Abstract: Abstract Functional diversity metrics are increasingly used to augment or replace taxonomic diversity metrics to deliver more mechanistic insights into community structure and function. Metrics used to describe landscape structure and characteristics share many of… read more here.

Correlation of native and exotic species richness: a global meta‐analysis finds no invasion paradox across scales
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Ecology"
DOI: 10.1002/ecy.2552
Abstract: Abstract Support for the “biotic resistance hypothesis,” that species‐rich communities are more successful at resisting invasion by exotic species than are species‐poor communities, has long been debated. It has been argued that native–exotic richness relationships… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00442-019-04521-x
Abstract: The exotic South African ragwort (Senecio inaequidens DC.) rapidly spread across Central Europe after its introduction, but we still do not know to what extent its timing of arrival in a plant community (i.e. before… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10530-019-02062-1
Abstract: Historical gaps and biases in the literature may have influenced the current knowledge of the impacts of invaders on global biodiversity. We performed a systematic review and compiled the main gaps and biases in the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.pecon.2018.10.001
Abstract: Abstract Aquarium market is one of the main causes of exotic species dispersion, as it promotes the introduction of potential invaders on natural environments. In this scenario, e-commerce provides easy access of invasive plants from… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s003060531800100x
Abstract: Abstract Anthropogenic habitat alteration and invasive species are threatening carnivores globally. Understanding the impact of these factors is critical for creating localized, effective conservation programmes. Madagascar's Eupleridae have been described as the least studied and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-64576-2
Abstract: Exotic plants can potentially modify ecosystem functions like cycling of nutrients by adjusting their decomposition rates. However, these effects are largely unknown for urban ecosystems, though they act as reservoirs of exotic plants. The present… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/1365-2664.13020
Abstract: Understanding the mechanisms that allow exotic species to have rapid population growth is an important step in the process of controlling existing invasions and preventing future invasions. Several hypotheses have been proposed to explain why… read more here.
