Germination patterns and seedling growth of congeneric native and invasive Mimosa species: Implications for risk assessment
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "Ecology and Evolution"
DOI: 10.1002/ece3.11312
Abstract: Abstract Comparisons of plant traits between native and invasive congeners are useful approaches for identifying characteristics that promote invasiveness. We compared germination patterns and seedling growth of locally sympatric populations of native Mimosa himalayana and… read more here.

Native and invasive zooplankton show differing responses to decadal‐scale increases in maximum temperatures in a large temperate river

DOI: 10.1002/lol2.10162
Abstract: It has been widely proposed that increasing global temperatures will promote the geographic spread of invasive species, yet few studies have examined the effects of increasing temperatures on existing populations of invaders. Here, we examine… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00436-018-6174-2
Abstract: Parasite-mediated competition has been reported to be one of the most harmful, although overlooked, impacts that alien species have on native ecosystems. Monk parakeets Myiopsitta monachus are successful invaders in Europe, where they have been… read more here.

Differential stoichiometric homeostasis and growth in two native and two invasive C3 grasses

DOI: 10.1007/s00442-020-04734-5
Abstract: Global changes interact with plant invasions by differentially impacting native and invasive species. For example, invasive plants often benefit from eutrophication to a greater degree than native plants. While this is well-documented, a broad, trait-based… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10144-017-0578-1
Abstract: North America is home to both native and invasive earthworms acting as ecosystem engineers as they build burrows that can serve as habitat for other species or otherwise alter soil structure, affecting nutrient cycling and… read more here.

Woody invaders do not alter rhizosphere microbial activity in a temperate deciduous forest

DOI: 10.1007/s10530-020-02273-x
Abstract: Non-native, invasive plants are often strong competitors that have large effects on ecosystem functioning. While limited experimental evidence suggests invasive species can change soil carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) processes, little is known about how… read more here.

Functional segregation of resource-use strategies of native and invasive plants across Mediterranean biome communities

DOI: 10.1007/s10530-020-02368-5
Abstract: Functional segregation among species in a community depends on their mean trait values (i.e. functional distinctiveness), and the range of trait attributes exhibited by each species (i.e. functional diversity). Previous evidence suggests that invasive plants… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11258-020-01097-y
Abstract: Infestations of invasive plants can hinder forest regeneration in biodiversity hotspots in tropical Asia. Microstegium ciliatum is a native grass in parts of tropical and subtropical Asia. To assess impacts of Microstegium on secondary forest… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.apsoil.2019.103370
Abstract: Abstract Feedbacks between plants and surrounding soil microbes can contribute to the establishment and persistence of invasive annual grasses as well as limit the success of restoration efforts. In this study, we aim to understand… read more here.
