Plant community associations of two invasive thistles [PDF]
AoB Plants, 2015 In order to combat the growing problems associated with biological invasions, many researchers have focused on identifying which communities are most vulnerable to invasion by exotic species. However, once established, invasive species can significantly change the composition of the communities that they invade.

Bacterial invasion potential in water is determined by nutrient availability and the indigenous community [PDF]
, 2013 In drinking water (DW) and the distribution systems, bacterial growth and biofilm formation have to be controlled both for limiting taste or odour development and preventing clogging or biocorrosion problems. After a contamination with undesired bacteria,

“Invasive” and “Non-invasive” Technologies in Neuroscience Communication [PDF]
BioéthiqueOnline, 2018 This paper analyzes a common distinction in neuroscience communication: the labels “invasive” and “non-invasive” attributed to brain-observation technologies. Because an implicit or explicit value judgment accompanies the term “non-invasive,” it has been used to promote technological progress, especially new brain-imaging techniques that have appeared ...

Origin matters: diversity affects the performance of alien invasive species but not of native species [PDF]
, 2015 At local scales, it has often been found that invasibility decreases with increasing resident plant diversity. However, whether resident community diversity similarly resists invasion by alien versus native species is seldom studied.

Weed Control as a Rationale for Restoration: The Example of Tallgrass Prairie
Ecology and Society, 2003 The potential weed control benefits of ecological restoration are rarely cited and largely unstudied. Nevertheless, the nature of many restoration target communities, i.e., diverse, late-successional communities, suggests that restoration may control ...
