Exotic species and the structure of a plant-galling network [PDF]

, 2017
Gall-inducing insects are highly specialized herbivores and is expected that networks composed by gall-inducing insects and their host plants are also very specialized.

Exotic aquatic species in the Patos Lagoon estuary and adjacent areas in Southern Brazil

Ocean and Coastal Research
Exotic and invasive species are considered the second major cause of biodiversity loss in the world. In addition to damage to native biodiversity, impacts caused by exotic species can affect ecosystem services and socioeconomic activities.

Why do people use exotic plants in their local medical systems? A systematic review based on Brazilian local communities.

PLoS ONE, 2017
Efforts have been made to understand the processes that lead to the introduction of exotic species into local pharmacopoeias. Among those efforts, the diversification hypothesis predicts that exotic plants are introduced in local medical systems to ...

Herbicide impacts on exotic grasses and a population of the critically endangered herb "Calystegia affinis" (Convolvulaceae) on Lord Howe Island [PDF]

, 2013
Introduced perennial grasses are capable of altering the habitat of native species, causing reductions in population size and vigour, and potentially affecting life-history processes such as survival, pollination and seedling recruitment. We examined the

Regional Differences in U.S. Consumer Preferences for Native Woody Shrubs With Varying Aesthetic Characteristics

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Native plants offer a variety of aesthetic (e.g., fall colour, fruit, flowers) and functional benefits (e.g., pollinator friendly, wildlife friendly, water management). How these benefits influence consumer choice and perceived value of native versus introduced plants is not well understood.

Establishment from seed is more important for exotic than for native plant species

Plant-Environment Interactions
Climate change has initiated movement of both native and non‐native (exotic) species across the landscape. Exotic species are hypothesized to establish from seed more readily than comparable native species.
