Using herbarium collections to study genetic responses to global change
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Earth's c. 406 million herbarium specimens represent a largely untapped resource of genetic data that could transform our understanding of global plant populations. Advances in DNA sequencing have made the extraction of genetic data from these preserved specimens increasingly feasible, enabling new insights into plant biodiversity and ...

Invasive plants optimize leaf nitrogen allocation in photosynthesis
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Invasive plants often outcompete co‐occurring native species by expressing acquisitive functional traits that promote high photosynthetic capacity. However, it remains unclear whether these traits are newly evolved in the introduced (‘away’) range or if invaders arrived preadapted with superior traits from their native (‘home’) range.

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Removal of Common buckthorn (Rhanmus cathartica) can leave legacies that promote rapid reestablishment of managed populations. By sowing native plant seeds into management areas, managed communities can exert greater biotic resistance against reestablishing invasive plants.

Why is biocontrol of common ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia), the most allergenic weed in Eastern Europe, still only a hope? [PDF]
, 2007 This chapter presents the story of a long and as yet unsuccessful struggle to find suitable fungal and/or insect biocontrol agents for ragweed, a plant that became a widespread allergenic weed in Eastern Europe.
