Biological Invasions, 2022 High community diversity may either prevent or promote the establishment of exotic species. The biotic resistance hypothesis holds that species-rich communities are more resistant to invasion than species-poor communities due to mechanisms including ...

Medical Mycology, 2000 Acute invasive aspergillosis (IA) is a devastating disease. Early diagnosis allowing an early treatment may improve the prognosis. However, this goal remains difficult to achieve. When diagnosis is confirmed it is often already too late. Galactomannan antigen detection and DNA detection are under clinical evaluation to improve early diagnosis and ...

Frontiers in Physiology, 2023 When an organism makes a long-distance transition to a new habitat, the associated environmental change is often marked and requires physiological plasticity of larvae, juveniles, or other migrant stages.

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Nitrogen deposition and biological invasion are two major components of global environmental change. Nitrogen deposition has been considered to enhance the resource availability of recipient habitats, which influences the invasiveness of plant invader ...

Environmental Humanities, 2017 My garden is being invaded by Japanese knotweed, as are those of my neighbors and those of many people who live in other places far from its native East Asia. I keep it more or less under control by eliminating individual extrusions, but I know that I am engaged in an open-ended struggle rather than a campaign leading to possible victory.

Adaptive delayed reproduction in a 2-dimensional discrete-time competition model
Journal of Biological Dynamics, 2023 This paper studies a 2-dimensional discrete-time competition model of Ricker type with reproductive delay. The model is examined under the assumption that species 1 and 2 have the same properties except that a fraction η of species 1 individuals delays ...

Geometric-Mean Fitness Does Not Correspond to Long-Term Survival Probability. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis study investigates the relationship between geometric mean fitness and survival probability in variable environments, using simulations to explore bet‐hedging strategies. Results reveal no direct correlation between these measures, challenging the assumption of a universal fitness metric and highlighting the importance of timescale in determining ...

Rethinking Biological Invasions as a Metacommunity Problem
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Perhaps more than any other ecological discipline, invasion biology has married the practices of basic science and the application of that science. The conceptual frameworks of population regulation, metapopulations, supply-side ecology, and community ...

bioRxiv, 2022 While biological invasions are recognized as a major threat to global biodiversity, determining species’ abilities to invade new areas (species invasiveness) and the vulnerability of those areas to invasions (community invasibility) are still poorly ...

Transactions of the Karelian Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2020 Information on the occurrence of invasive species in towns of the Republic of Karelia is provided. In total, 47 invasive species have been recorded. The number of neophytes varies widely among towns – from 14 species in the youngest Town of Kostomuksha ...
