Managing invasive species [PDF]
F1000Research, 2018 Invasive species pose considerable harm to native ecosystems and biodiversity and frustrate and at times fascinate the invasive species management and scientific communities. Of the numerous non-native species established around the world, only a minority of them are invasive and noxious, whereas the majority are either benign or in fact beneficial ...

A new national unit for invasive species detection, assessment and eradication planning
South African Journal of Science, 2013 Even with no new introductions, the number of biological invasions in South Africa will increase as introduced species naturalise and become invasive. As of 2010 South Africa had ~8750 introduced plant taxa, 660 recorded as naturalised, 198 included in ...

Functional eradication as a framework for invasive species control
Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, 2020 highlighted by the responses of 232 managers and specialists in the US and Invasive species continue to drive major losses in biodiversity and ecosystem function across the globe. Dealing with the effects of invasion is particularly problematic in marine

Species distribution models have limited spatial transferability for invasive species.
Ecology Letters, 2020 The reliability of transferring species distribution models (SDMs) to new ranges and future climates has been widely debated. Biological invasions offer the unique opportunity to evaluate model transferability, as distribution data between species ...

Genetic Biocontrol for Invasive Species
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020 Invasive species are increasingly affecting agriculture, food, fisheries, and forestry resources throughout the world. As a result of global trade, invasive species are often introduced into new environments where they become established and cause harm ...
