Human-mediated introductions of Australian acacias – a global experiment in biogeography
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2011)Aim Australian acacias (1012 recognized species native to Australia, which were previously grouped in Acacia subgenus Phyllodineae) have been moved extensively around the world by humans over the past 250 years. This has ... -
Invasion debt – quantifying future biological invasions
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2016)Aim We develop a framework for quantifying invasions based on lagged trends in invasions (‘invasion debt’) with the aim of identifying appropriate metrics to quantify delayed responses at different invasion stages – from ... -
Invasion trajectory of alien trees: the role of introduction pathway and planting history
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2014)Global change is driving a massive rearrangement of the world’s biota. Trajectories of distributional shifts are shaped by species traits, the recipient environment and driving forces with many of the driving forces directly ... -
Macroecology meets invasion ecology: performance of Australian acacias and eucalypts around the world revealed by features of their native ranges
(Springer, 2014)Native geographical range extent has frequently emerged as a correlate of invasiveness, especially for plant species. We tested whether dimensions of the native range (measured by the area-of-occupancy and its scaling ... -
Phylogeographic consequences of different introduction histories of invasive Australian Acacia species and Paraserianthes lophantha (Fabaceae) in South Africa
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2011)Aim The genetic makeup and evolutionary potential of alien species can be profoundly influenced by their introduction history, but without detailed historical records, it can be difficult to ascertain the strength of ...
