Big data analysis for evaluating bioinvasion risk [PDF]
BMC Bioinformatics, 2018 Background Global maritime trade plays an important role in the modern transportation industry. It brings significant economic profit along with bioinvasion risk. Species translocate and establish in a non-native area through ballast water and biofouling.

Migration Thresholds Govern Allele Collapse Under Repeated Gene Flooding [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionA recent study proposed “gene flooding” as a strategy for controlling invasive populations through repeated introduction of inbred individuals. Their simulations demonstrate that sustained demographic influx can drive collapse of resident alleles under ...

Histopathology and Phylogeny of the Dinoflagellate Hematodinium perezi and the Epibiotic Peritrich Ciliate Epistylis sp. Infecting the Blue Crab Callinectes sapidus in the Eastern Mediterranean [PDF]
MicroorganismsBioinvasions constitute both a direct and an indirect threat to ecosystems. Direct threats include pressures on local trophic chains, while indirect threats might take the form of an invasion of a microorganism alongside its host.

Habitat Preferences at the Leading Edge of a Marine Bioinvasion [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionTo enable the early detection and eradication of invasive species, it is crucial to predict habitats with an elevated risk of invasion. Despite the fact that invaders may display initial habitat preferences and niche shifts during range expansion ...

Invasion genomics of lionfish in the Mediterranean Sea [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionThe rate of biological invasions is steadily increasing, with major ecological and economic impacts accounting for billions of dollars in damage as a result. One spectacular example is the western Atlantic invasion by lionfishes. In the Mediterranean Sea,

Stationary substrates facilitate bioinvasion in Paranaguá Bay in southern Brazil
Brazilian Journal of Oceanography, 2010 Artificial substrates in and near ports and marinas commonly have many non-indigenous species and are the first stepping stone for the establishment of bioinvasors.
