    Is spinelessness a stable character in cactus pear cultivars? Implications for invasiveness 

    Novoa, A.; Flepu, V.; Boatwright, J.S. (Elsevier Ltd, 2019)
    Selection against invasiveness allows breeders to continue trading with plant cultivars when the wild species is otherwise invasive. However, to ensure the benefits of a species over the medium-to longer-term, it is necessary ...

    The role of invasive alien species in shaping local livelihoods and human well-being: A review 

    Shackleton, R.T.; Shackleton, C.M.; Kull, C.A. (Elsevier Ltd, 2019)
    Invasive alien species are a well-recognised driver of social-ecological change globally. Much research has focused on ecological impacts, but the role of invasive species for livelihoods and human well-being is less well ...

    Climate change vulnerability assessment of species 

    Foden, W.B.; Young, B.E.; Akcakaya, H.R.; Garcia, R.A.; Hoffmann, A.A.; Stein, B.A.; Thomas, C.D.; Wheatley, C.J.; Bickford, D.; Carr, J.A.; Hole, D.G.; Martin, T.G.; Pacifici, M.; Pearce-Higgins, J.W.; Platts, P.J.; Visconti, P.; Watson, J.E.M.; Huntley, B. (Wiley Periodicals Inc., 2019)
    Assessing species' vulnerability to climate change is a prerequisite for developing effective strategies to conserve them. The last three decades have seen exponential growth in the number of studies evaluating how, how ...

    Tall-statured grasses: a useful functional group for invasion science 

    Canavan, S.; Meyerson, L.A.; Packer, J.G.; Pysek, P.; Maurel, N.; Lozano, V.; Richardson, D.M.; Brundu, G.; Canavan, K.; Cicatelli, A.; Cuda, J.; Dawson, W.; Essl, F.; Guarino, F.; Guo, W.-Y.; van Kleunen, M.; Kreft, H.; Lambertini, C.; Pergl, J.; Skalova, H.; Soreng, R.J.; Visser, V.; Vorontsova, M.S.; Weigelt, P.; Winter, M.; Wilson, J.R.U. (Springer, 2019)
    Species in the grass family (Poaceae) have caused some of the most damaging invasions in natural ecosystems, but plants in this family are also among the most widely used by humans. Therefore, it is important to be able ...

    Standards for distribution models in biodiversity assessments 

    Araujo, M.B.; Anderson, R.P.; Barbosa, A.M.; Beale, C.M.; Dormann, C.F.; Early, R.; Garcia, R.A.; Guisan, A.; Maiorano, L.; Naimi, B.; O'Hara, R.B.; Zimmermann, N.E.; Rahbek, C. (Creative Commons Attribution NonCommercial License 4.0, 2019)
    Demand for models in biodiversity assessments is rising, but which models are adequate for the task? We propose a set of best-practice standards and detailed guidelines enabling scoring of studies based on species distribution ...

    Ghosts from the past: even comprehensive sampling of the native range may not be enough to unravel the introduction history of invasive species – the case of Acacia dealbata invasions in South Africa 

    Hirsch, H.; Castillo, M.L.; Impson, F.A.C.; Kleinjan, C.; Richardson, D.M.; Le Roux, J.J. (Botanical Society of America, 2019)
    PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Knowledge about the introduction history (source(s), number and size of introduction events) of an invasive species is a crucial prerequisite to understand invasion success and to facilitate effective ...

    Phenotypic plasticity in locomotor performance of a monophyletic group of weevils accords with the ‘warmer is better’ hypothesis 

    Treasure, A.M.; Chown, S.L. (The Company of Biologists Ltd, 2019)
    Ectotherms may respond to variable environmental conditions by altering their phenotypes. Phenotypic plasticity was initially thought to be beneficial to an organism’s physiological fitness but several alternative hypotheses ...

    No survival of native larval frogs in the presence of invasive Indian bullfrog Hoplobatrachus tigerinus tadpoles 

    Mohanty, N.P.; Measey, J. (Springer, 2019)
    Invasive amphibians have considerable negative impacts on recipient ecosystems, however, impact has been assessed for only a few species, limiting risk assessments. In particular, the impact of invasive anurans with ...

    Secondary invasion after clearing invasive Acacia saligna in the South African fynbos 

    Nsikani, M.M.; Gaertner, M.; Kritzinger-Klopper, S.; Ngubane, N.P.; Esler, K.J. (Eslervier, 2019)
    It is often assumed that clearing invasive alien species will lead to the dissipation of their negative impacts and recovery of native plant diversity. However, this is often not the case because clearing of primary invasive ...

    Using network theory to understand and predict biological invasions 

    Frost, C.M.; Allen, W.J.; Courchamp, F.; Jeschke, J.M.; Saul, W.C.; Wardle, D.A. (2019)
    Understanding and predicting biological invasions is challenging because of the complexity of many interacting players. A holistic approach is needed with the potential to simultaneously consider all relevant effects and ...
