Invasive Africanized honeybees change the structure of native pollination networks in BrazilBiological Invasions - Tập 14 - Trang 2369-2378 - 2012

The Africanized honeybee Apis mellifera (AHB) is an invasive species spread over all Brazilian biomes, which has negative impacts on native bee populations, but whose impacts on native plants are still controversial. In order to understand how its impacts extend to the pollination service at the community level, we studied the AHB and its interactions in a multi-species context using network theor...... hiện toàn bộ
Invasions on Large and Small Scales: Management of a Well-established Crop Pest, the Colorado Potato BeetleBiological Invasions - Tập 3 - Trang 295-306 - 2001
Mitchell B. Baker, David N. Ferro, Adam H. Porter
Understanding the movement of invading organisms is critical to predicting invasion dynamics. The Colorado potato beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say), is an invasive species on multiple spatial and temporal scales, and can serve as a model for studies of invasion dynamics. It is the major insect defoliator of potato in North America, and successful management requires an understanding of CPB i...... hiện toàn bộ
Differential effects of reproductive interference by an alien congener on native Taraxacum speciesBiological Invasions - Tập 14 - Trang 439-447 - 2011

Reproductive interference (RI) has been suggested to play a critical role in native plant displacement by alien congeners. However, although co-existence of native and alien congeners may provide an opportunity to refute the RI hypothesis, few studies have examined such a case. Using a native Japanese dandelion, Taraxacum longeappendiculatum, and a co-existing alien congener, Taraxacum officinale,...... hiện toàn bộ
Classical biological control of insect pests of trees: facts and figuresBiological Invasions - Tập 19 Số 11 - Trang 3401-3417 - 2017
Kenis, Marc, Hurley, Brett P., Hajek, Ann E., Cock, Matthew J. W.
Classical biological control (CBC) is the introduction of a natural enemy of exotic origin to control a pest, usually also exotic, aiming at permanent control of the pest. CBC has been carried out widely over a variety of target organisms, but most commonly against insects, using parasitoids and predators and, occasionally, pathogens. Until 2010, 6158 introductions of parasitoids and predators wer...... hiện toàn bộ
Avoid, tolerate, or escape? Native vegetation responses to invasion vary between functional groupsBiological Invasions - Tập 25 - Trang 1387-1401 - 2022

Biological invasions are one of the greatest threats to biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. However, the constraints imposed by the invaders on native organisms and their associated response, remain poorly understood. Native species can survive invasion through multiple resistance strategies (avoidance, tolerance, or escape), but the relative importance of each strategy and how they vary among...... hiện toàn bộ
Overestimation of establishment success of non-native birds in Hawaii and BritainBiological Invasions - Tập 15 - Trang 249-252 - 2012
Mariano A. Rodriguez-Cabal, Mark Williamson, Daniel Simberloff
The tens rules states that 10 % of all introduced species establish and about 10 % of those species become invasive. Several studies have failed to support the tens rule. However, these studies are beset by a general weakness: many unsuccessful invasions are never reported, and without these data tests of the tens rules are inadequate. Here, using data on the establishment success of non-native bi...... hiện toàn bộ
