Prunus serotina unleashed: invader dominance after 70 years of forest development [PDF]
Propagule pressure and disturbance have both been found to facilitate invasion. Therefore, knowledge on the history of introduction and disturbance is vital for understanding an invasion process, and research should focus on areas in which the invasive ...

NATIVE SPECIES FOR DEGRADED PEAT SWAMP FOREST REHABILITATION
It is known that over exploitation and repeated fire caused peat swamp forest degradation. Great effort on degraded peat forest rehabilitation has been taken to minimize forest degradation. The study aimed to understand the best tree species for degraded peat swamp forest rehabilitation.

Selectivity of herbicides in native forest species of cerrado
A aggravating problems in forest management is weed interference, which is a factor that modifies adaptation and reduces plant growth. The use of herbicides is an indispensable practice to mitigate these effects in reforestation areas. This study aimed to evaluate the selectivity of glyphosate and imazapyr in native plants of the Brazilian Cerrado ...

Non-native Forest Insects and Pathogens in Australia: Establishment, Spread, and Impact
Geographic isolation, unique native flora, and a robust biosecurity system have resulted in Australia remaining free from many of the devastating exotic pests found in other countries.

Land use, associated eel production, and abundance of fish and crayfish in streams in Waikato, New Zealand [PDF]
The density and biomass of fish and crayfish, and the production of eels, was compared among streams in native forest, exotic forest, and pasture. Populations were estimated by multiple-pass electroshocking at 11 sites in hill-country streams in the ...
