Canscora agni (Gentianaceae), a new species from the fire‐prone Indian savannas

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
We describe Canscora agni from the Indian savannas as a distinct species which differs from its allied species Canscora alata in having fewer and shorter leaves, pedicel‐wings unequal across the length, bracts with glandular hair on the margins, calyx‐wings being four, wider, up to 2.3 mm, with distinct reticulate venation and having ovary length up to

The dominance of non‐native plants over native plants increases with the number of global change factors

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Global environmental change and plant invasion are both recognized as key indicators of the Anthropocene. Still, how the number of co‐acting global change factors (GCFs) influence invaded plant communities remains unclear, even though in nature GCFs usually act together rather than alone.

Novel chemistry of invasive plants: exotic species have more unique metabolomic profiles than native congeners

open access: yes, 2014
It is often assumed that exotic plants can become invasive when they possess novel secondary chemistry compared with native plants in the introduced range.

Interplanetary frontiers: terraforming from an invasion science perspective

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
The pursuit of a multi‐planetary existence represents one of humanity's greatest frontiers. If applied justly, it offers an opportunity to extend its civilization's lifespan amid escalating sustainability crises on Earth. One approach increasingly gaining traction is terraforming, a hitherto theoretical ecological and evolutionary experiment revolving ...

Fact sheet: Exotic species management at landscape scales [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Invasions by exotic plant species can threaten forest ecosystems in numerous ways. Identifying relationships be-tween exotic species invasions and native vegetation, soil properties, and disturbance could be helpful for managing exotic plants by ...

Age ratio in groups of a social ungulate affects epizoochorous dispersal and diaspore exchanges

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Animal‐mediated seed dispersal is a key process in plant population dynamics, species distribution and ecosystem functioning. As long‐distance dispersal agents, ungulates help to maintain native plant populations facing abiotic changes in their habitat and habitat fragmentation or habitat loss.

Edge effects on species composition and exotic species abundance in the North Carolina Piedmont

open access: yes, 2006
Edges between forest and non-forest habitats often have significant effects on forest microclimate and resource availability, with corresponding effects on species composition and abundance.
