Periphyton density is similar on native and non‐native plant species [PDF]

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, 2017
Abstract Non‐native plants increasingly dominate the vegetation in aquatic ecosystems and thrive in eutrophic conditions. In eutrophic conditions, submerged plants risk being overgrown by epiphytic algae; however, if non‐native plants are less susceptible to periphyton than natives, this would contribute to their dominance.

Insight into the Phylogenetic Relationships and Evolutionary History of Indocalamus (Bambusoideae) Through Comparative Analyses of Plastomes

open access: yesHorticulturae
Indocalamus Nakai, a genus within the tribe Arundinarieae, has significant horticultural and economic value. However, its classification has long been challenging, and due to limited sampling, both intra- and intergeneric phylogenetic relationships, as ...

Understanding Water Utilization Mechanisms in Degrading Bamboo Shoots: A Cytological and Physiological Study

open access: yesPlants
Degradation of shoots, characterized by stunted growth and signs of water deficit, is common in bamboo stands. However, the specific mechanisms underlying water utilization in degrading shoots remain unclear.

The spread of non‐native species

open access: yesBiological Reviews
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

Invasion success of a global avian invader is explained by within-taxon niche structure and association with humans in the native range [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Aim To mitigate the threat invasive species pose to ecosystem functioning, reli- able risk assessment is paramount. Spatially explicit predictions of invasion risk obtained through bioclimatic envelope models calibrated with native species distribution ...
