Anti-epiphyte defenses in the red seaweed Gracilaria vermiculophylla : non-native algae are better defended than their native conspecifics [PDF]
, 2016 Epibiosis in the marine environment is a stressor that may determine invasion success in introduced species. Previous comparisons showed resistance to epibionts can be higher in non-native than in resident seaweed species, but we do not know whether it ...

Phylogeny-Based Comparative Methods Question the Adaptive Nature of Sporophytic Specializations in Mosses [PDF]
, 2012 Adaptive evolution has often been proposed to explain correlations between habitats and certain phenotypes. In mosses, a high frequency of species with specialized sporophytic traits in exposed or epiphytic habitats was, already 100 years ago, suggested ...
