Spatiotemporal distribution patterns of soil nematodes along an altitudinal gradient in the cold temperate zone of China

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2023
As important components of the cosmopolitan soil biota, soil nematodes are found at multiple trophic levels of the belowground food web and play an important role in soil function.

Native fruit traits may mediate dispersal competition between native and non-native plants [PDF]

, 2012
Seed disperser preferences may mediate the impact of invasive, non-native plant species on their new ecological communities. Significant seed disperser preference for invasives over native species could facilitate the spread of the invasives while ...

Native species as goods

Conservation Biology, 2015
We thank Tassin and Kull (2015) for their response to our article on human use of non-native species (Speziale et al. 2014), which we hoped would generate discussion. We are disappointed, however, that their comment does not contribute new ideas and focuses on the following topics already discussed in the literature: that non-native species may be more

Germination performance of native and non-native Ulmus pumila populations [PDF]

, 2012
Germination is a crucial step for invasive plants to extend their distribution under different environmental conditions in a new range. Therefore, information on germination characteristics of invasive plant species provides invaluable knowledge about ...

Native Joint Infections by Aspergillus Species [PDF]

Diagnostics, 2021
Background: Septic arthritis due to Aspergillus spp. represents a rare, but severe disease. Nevertheless, clear guidelines regarding most effective medical treatment have not yet been established. The present study is a literature review of all reported cases of fungal septic arthritis due to Aspergillus spp, in order to clarify epidemiology, as well ...

Understanding the threats posed by non-native species: public vs. conservation managers. [PDF]

, 2013
Public perception is a key factor influencing current conservation policy. Therefore, it is important to determine the influence of the public, end-users and scientists on the prioritisation of conservation issues and the direct implications for policy ...

Sources and modes of action of invasive knotweed allelopathy : the effects of leaf litter and trained soil on the germination and growth of native plants [PDF]

, 2012
Invasive knotweeds, native to Eastern Asia, are among the most dominant plant invaders of European and North American temperate ecosystems. Recent studies indicate that one cause of this dominance might be allelopathy, but the possible sources and modes ...

Imperfect Replacement of Native Species by Non‐Native Species as Pollinators of Endemic Hawaiian Plants [PDF]

Conservation Biology, 2013
Abstract Native plant species that have lost their mutualist partners may require non‐native pollinators or seed dispersers to maintain reproduction. When natives are highly specialized, however, it appears doubtful that introduced generalists will partner effectively with them.
