Sources and modes of action of invasive knotweed allelopathy : the effects of leaf litter and trained soil on the germination and growth of native plants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Invasive knotweeds, native to Eastern Asia, are among the most dominant plant invaders of European and North American temperate ecosystems. Recent studies indicate that one cause of this dominance might be allelopathy, but the possible sources and modes ...

Ant species accumulation on Lord Howe Island highlights the increasing need for effective biosecurity on islands

open access: yesNeoBiota, 2017
Two species of the genus Fallopia (F. sachalinensis, F. japonica, Polygonaceae) native to Asia, and their hybrid (F. × bohemica), belong to the most noxious plant invaders in Europe. They impact highly on invaded plant communities, resulting in extremely

Invasiveness does not predict impact: response of native land snail communities to plant invasions in riparian habitats. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Studies of plant invasions rarely address impacts on molluscs. By comparing pairs of invaded and corresponding uninvaded plots in 96 sites in floodplain forests, we examined effects of four invasive alien plants (Impatiens glandulifera, Fallopia japonica,

Role of fallopia plant extraction in induced hepatocellular carcinoma

open access: yesActa Chimica Slovenica, 2023
In 2020, around 19.3 million new cancer cases resulted in 3.5 million deaths. It is estimated that there will be 28.4 million cases by 2040. Plant-derived natural products, such as alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, and phenolic compounds, offer a wide ...
