Counter-bioinvasion: Conceptual and governance challenges [PDF]
Abstract This article begins by defining the problem of invasive alien species, then moves to a discussion of some of the conceptual implications of treating bioinvasion as a serious topic in both environmental and global ecopolitics, such as the encouragement of parochial thinking and the reliance on an outdated ecological paradigm that assumes the ...

Accumulating time lags across biodiversity levels following land‐use change
Species identity seems central in governing the observed delays at each level of biodiversity, from genetic to functional diversity. In particular, species identity controls the slowest responses at the genetic level, potentially leading to accumulating underestimations of the size and duration of time lags at species, community and functional ...

This study provides global‐scale evidence that the naturalization of European herbaceous species is related to specific germination traits acquired in the native range. The findings indicate that traits such as high germinability, low stratification requirements and responsiveness to scarification act as preadaptations that facilitate naturalization by
