DOI: 10.1002/ece3.2655
Abstract: Abstract Variation in density of early stages, that is, larvae and juveniles, is a major determinant of the distribution and abundance of the adult population of most marine invertebrates. These early stages thus play a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/15226514.2021.2025205
Abstract: Abstract Exotic plants could play an essential role in the restoration of heavy metal-contaminated soil. This study evaluated the tolerance of and extraction of cadmium (Cd) by ZCR (CR♀ × LT♂), hybrids of Xanthium strumarium… read more here.

Combined plasticity within and between generations increases drought resistance more in a clonal, introduced, invasive plant than its native congener

DOI: 10.1093/jpe/rtaf203
Abstract: Alien plant invasions threaten native biodiversity, disrupt ecosystem functions, and can cause large economic damage. Phenotypic plasticity is considered a key mechanism facilitating plant invasions. Plastic responses can occur not only within a generation but… read more here.

Soil microbes from herbivory-damaged native congener impair invasive plant tolerance to biocontrol

DOI: 10.1093/jpe/rtaf209
Abstract: Classical biocontrol of invasive plants often fails due to their high tolerance to herbivore damage. While directly affects plants, herbivory can also indirectly influence soil microbes. However, whether herbivory induced shifts in the soil microbiome… read more here.

Invasive Prosopis juliflora harbours arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal communities distinct from its native congener P. cineraria

DOI: 10.1139/cjb-2025-0088
Abstract: Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) promote plant invasions through enhanced colonization of invasive species in introduced ranges compared to their native ranges or native species or congeners in the introduced range. Quantitative differences in AMF communities… read more here.
