Genetic and phenotypic differentiation in functional traits of Iris pseudacorus L. in native and introduced Mediterranean climate ranges
Intraspecific variation in functional traits between native and introduced plant species may underlie resilience and invasiveness of introduced...

The seeds of invasion: a comparison of endophytic seed bacteria of Acacia longifolia between its native and invasive ranges
Acacia longifolia is an aggressive invader in Mediterranean-type ecosystems severely impacting biodiversity and ecosystem functions. The species’...

Habitat affiliation of non-native plant species across their introduced ranges on Caribbean islands
Investigating the ability of non-native species to establish and invade different habitats is one of the most important approaches in the analysis of...

Genetic diversity of Ponto-Caspian amphipods throughout the invaded Baltic and native NW Black Sea donor ranges: does introduction mode matter?
The SE Baltic region harbors a diverse assemblage of alien amphipods of Ponto-Caspian origin. The composition of this fauna was shaped by three...

The variability of iridomyrmecin, the venom of the Argentine ant, in its native and invasive ranges
The Argentine ant is one of the five worst invasive ants. Recently it has been shown that one of the main compounds of its pygidial gland,...

Global distribution of the invasive apple snail Pomacea canaliculata: analyzing possible shifts in climatic niche between native and invaded ranges and future spread
Biological invasions represent one of the major threats to biodiversity. The apple snail Pomacea canaliculata is a South American freshwater snail...

A review and meta-analysis of the environmental biology of bleak Alburnus alburnus in its native and introduced ranges, with reflections on its invasiveness
The bleak Alburnus alburnus is a medium body-size leuciscid fish that is naturally distributed across central European and western Asian fresh...

Plant functional, biogeographical and phylogenetic diversity are related to native and non-native plant abundance in invaded Hawaiian forests
Numerous introduced species from cosmopolitan biogeographic origins have naturalized in the Hawaiian Islands and are spreading while native plant...

Flammability features of native and non-native woody species from the southernmost ecosystems: a review
BackgroundVegetation plays a crucial role in the ignition, propagation, and severity of fire, and understanding the relationship between plants and...
-
Seasonal changes in biodiversity of native and non-native amphipod taxa under diverse environmental contexts
Anthropogenic disturbances are having strong, negative effects on aquatic systems globally, altering ecological communities and potentially creating...

Enriched root bacterial microbiome in invaded vs native ranges of the model grass allotetraploid Brachypodium hybridum
Invasive species can shift the composition of key soil microbial groups, thus creating novel soil microbial communities. To better understand the...

European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) as seed disperser in arid ecotones of Argentina: non-native herbivore facilitation of native and non-native plants
The European rabbit plays a major role in seed dispersal in its native environment. We evaluated its ecological interactions with plants through the...

Biotic resistance on muddy shores? Native epibiotic barnacles impose costs on non-native snails
Organisms that settle and grow on other organisms (i.e., epibionts) are often costly to their hosts in terms of locomotion, growth, and/or...

Does a shift in shade tolerance as suggested by seedling morphology explain differences in regeneration success of northern red oak in native and introduced ranges?
Across North America, forests dominated by Quercus rubra L. (northern red oak), a moderately shade-tolerant tree species, are undergoing successional...
-
Trait differences between and within ranges of an invasive legume species
Novel ecological interactions can drive natural selection in non-native species and trait evolution may increase the likelihood of invasion. We can...

Modeling the potential spread of the non-native regal demoiselle, Neopomacentrus cyanomos, in the western Atlantic
Predicting the potential distribution of a non-native species can assist management efforts to mitigate impacts on recipient ecosystems. However,...

Urban alien plants in temperate oceanic regions of Europe originate from warmer native ranges
When colonizing new areas, alien plant species success can depend strongly on local environmental conditions. Microclimatic barriers might be the...

Global assessment of three Rumex species reveals inconsistent climatic niche shifts across multiple introduced ranges
Climatic niche shifts occur when species occupy different climates in the introduced range than in their native range. Climatic niche shifts are...
