Tree diversity regulates forest pest invasion [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2019
Nonnative pests often cause cascading ecological impacts, leading to detrimental socioeconomic consequences; however, how plant diversity may influence insect and disease invasions remains unclear. High species diversity in host communities may promote pest invasions by providing more niches (i.e., facilitation), but it can also diminish invasion ...
