Management of invasive alien plants in forests: A global perspective

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.
This review exposes urgent and critical knowledge gaps in forest IAP management, which need addressing to meet global targets for biodiversity and forest health. These gaps include highly uneven global research effort, narrow species focus, limited method replication, overlooked seasonal effects, and inconsistent cost reporting.

ED007. Siguiendo los pasos de las mariquitas introducidas en el Ecuador

Siembra, 2023
Las especies no nativas pueden causar impactos negativos importantes en las comunidades biológicas en las que se han introducido. Estos impactos pueden ser ecológicos, al impactar a las especies nativas, y también socioeconómicos, al afectar a las ...

When invasions go unnoticed: Public perception of the freshwater jellyfish Craspedacusta sowerbii in Europe

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1957-1973, June 2026.
Abstract Biological invasions are a major driver of biodiversity loss, yet inconspicuous or “cryptic” species often escape detection and public awareness, limiting management responses. We investigated the freshwater jellyfish Craspedacusta sowerbii, likely native to China and now present on six continents, through a 22‐month multilingual online survey

Ecological Niche Divergence in an Invasive Non‐Native Shrub: Implications for Risk Assessments

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 6, June 2026.
The worldwide spread invasive shrub Nicotiana glauca (tree tobacco) underwent divergent niche shifts across two of its invaded regions. In the mediterranean region it presents high thermal seasonality and low thermal seasonality in the Caatinga (Brazil).

Plantas nativas e a prática da contextualização: uma investigação etnobotânica no ensino de ciências

Revista Insignare Scientia, 2021
O presente trabalho tem como objetivo realizar um estudo etnobotânico sobre plantas nativas, com foco em três espécies vegetais, e fazer um paralelo entre o que a ciência diz sobre tais espécies com o conhecimento que uma comunidade escolar detém sobre ...

Differences in characteristics between naturalized threatened plants and other threatened plants

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Many non‐native plant species introduced by humans have become naturalized. At the same time many species are threatened in their native range. However, the number of plant species threatened in their native range that are naturalized elsewhere remains unknown.

An integrated approach to balance freshwater connectivity restoration and invasion risk

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Habitat fragmentation negatively affects many native migratory fish populations. However, this fragmentation can also prevent the spread and establishment of invasive species. We modified the dendritic connectivity index (DCI), a commonly used freshwater connectivity metric, to account for multiple invasive dispersal pathways in estimates of ...

Tree‐ring structure determines the temporal coordination between xylem growth and the gain in hydraulic conductivity in the outermost ring

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 6, Page 3732-3746, June 2026.
Summary The study of seasonal xylem hydraulics has predominantly focused on embolism‐induced losses, whereas growth‐driven increases in hydraulic capacity have received little attention. We assessed the intra‐annual dynamics of xylem formation and gain of conductivity in the current‐year ring of three species with contrasting tree‐ring structure ...

Temporal dynamics in functional fruit traits of native and invasive fleshy fruited plants in subtropical Andean forests

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1221-1232, May 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Fruits encompass the energetic and material flow between both interacting parties in frugivore‐mediated seed dispersal. Since fruit traits matter in frugivores' foraging decisions, the temporal dynamics of fruit traits might influence interaction outcomes.
