A Mathematical Model for Biocontrol of the Invasive Weed Fallopia japonica. [PDF]
Bull Math Biol, 2016 We propose a mathematical model for biocontrol of the invasive weed Fallopia japonica using one of its co-evolved natural enemies, the Japanese sap-sucking psyllid Aphalara itadori. This insect sucks the sap from the stems of the plant thereby weakening it. Its diet is highly specific to F. japonica.

Fallopia japonica, a Natural Modulator, Can Overcome Multidrug Resistance in Cancer Cells. [PDF]
Evid Based Complement Alternat Med, 2015 Resistance of cancer cells to chemotherapy is controlled by the decrease of intracellular drug accumulation, increase of detoxification, and diminished propensity of cancer cells to undergo apoptosis. ATP-binding cassette (ABC) membrane transporters with intracellular metabolic enzymes contribute to the complex and unresolved phenomenon of multidrug ...

New insights into the phylogenetic relationships of Japanese knotweed (Reynoutria japonica) and allied taxa in subtribe Reynoutriinae (Polygonaceae) [PDF]
PhytoKeys, 2023 Japanese knotweed (Reynoutria japonica) is native to East Asia, but has been introduced to the West where it is a noxious invasive weed. Taxonomically, Japanese knotweed is placed within subtribe Reynoutriinae (Polygonaceae), which also contains the ...

Occurrence cubes : a new paradigm for aggregating species occurrence data [PDF]
, 2020 In this paper we describe a method of aggregating species occurrence data into what we coined “occurrence cubes”. The aggregated data can be perceived as a cube with three dimensions - taxonomic, temporal and geographic - and takes into account the ...
