The genus Acacia as invader: the characteristic case of Acacia dealbata Link in Europe [PDF]
Annals of Forest Science, 2010 We review current knowledge about the biology of the genus Acacia, and Acacia dealbata Link (silver wattle) in particular, as an invader in Europe, focusing on (i) the biology of the genus Acacia; (ii) biological attributes that are important for the invasiveness of the genus and A. dealbata; (iii) possible hypotheses for the invasion success; and (iv)

Bacterial Succession during Vermicomposting of Silver Wattle (Acacia dealbata Link) [PDF]
Microorganisms, 2021 Vermicomposting is the process of organic waste degradation through interactions between earthworms and microbes. A variety of organic wastes can be vermicomposted, producing a nutrient-rich final product that can be used as a soil biofertilizer.

Soil nutritional status and biogeography influence rhizosphere microbial communities associated with the invasive tree Acacia dealbata [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 Invasiveness and the impacts of introduced plants are known to be mediated by plant-microbe interactions. Yet, the microbial communities associated with invasive plants are generally poorly understood.

Natural and Induced Polyploidy in Acacia dealbata Link. and Acacia mangium Willd. [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2002 Seeds were obtained from seven natural populations of Acacia dealbata, three natural populations of A. mangium and a seed orchard of A. mangium, representing the natural range of the two species. Polyploids were discovered in two of the seven populations of A. dealbata. The 2C DNA amount for diploid A.

Acacia dealbata invasion in Chile: Surprises from climatic niche and species distribution models [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2019 Aim Tree invasions are a threat to biodiversity conservation, and although it is hard to predict the future spread of invasive tree species, there are tools available which could allow some estimations.

Valorisation Potential of Invasive Acacia dealbata, A. longifolia and A. melanoxylon from Land Clearings [PDF]
Molecules, 2022 Acacia spp. are invasive in Southern Europe, and their high propagation rates produce excessive biomass, exacerbating wildfire risk. However, lignocellulosic biomass from Acacia spp. may be utilised for diverse biorefinery applications.

Can suitability indices predict plant growth in the invaded range? The case of Acacias species [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 IntroductionForestry in many parts of the world depends on exotic species, making this industry a source of invasions in some countries. Among others, plantations of the genus Pinus, Eucalyptus, Acacia, Populus, and Pseudotsuga underpin the forestry ...

Allelopathic Effect of the Invasive Species Acacia dealbata Link and Hakea decurrens R.Br., subsp. physocarpa on Native Mediterranean Scrub Species [PDF]
PlantsInvasive species can profoundly alter ecosystems through mechanisms such as allelopathy. This study evaluates the allelopathic effects of Acacia dealbata and Hakea decurrens subsp. physocarpa on two dominant Mediterranean native species, Cistus ladanifer
