The distribution of range sizes of native and alien plants in four European countries and the effects of residence time [PDF]

, 2008
Aim Do the statistical distributions of range sizes of native and alien species differ? If so, is this because of residence time effects? And can such effects indicate an average time to a maximum?

Time since introduction, seed mass, and genome size predict successful invaders among the cultivated vascular plants of Hawaii. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Extensive economic and environmental damage has been caused by invasive exotic plant species in many ecosystems worldwide. Many comparative studies have therefore attempted to predict, from biological traits, which species among the pool of naturalized ...

New records, validated name and redefinition in Azolla (Salviniaceae, Pteridophyta) from Costa Rica

Actualidades Biológicas, 2023
In studies of herbarium specimens and living material, we observed that several species in the genus Azolla Lam. are present in different wetlands of Costa Rica, which instigated the search for applicable names of each taxon. According to a morphological

The global loss of floristic uniqueness

Nature Communications, 2021
Humans have altered plant biogeography by introducing species from one region to another, but an analysis of how naturalized plant species affect the uniqueness of regional floras around the world was missing.

Updating the checklist of the alien flora in Egypt [PDF]

Taeckholmia, 2020
The present study aims to update the list of the alien species in the Egyptian flora, which prepared from literature reviewing, field trips and herbaria consultation. The recent list includes 250 taxa (11.7% of the Egyptian flora); including 5 subspecies

Patterns of phylogenetic relatedness of non-native plants across the introduction–naturalization–invasion continuum in China

Plant Diversity, 2023
Human activities have caused the exchange of species among different parts of the world. When introduced species become naturalized and invasive, they may cause great negative impacts on the environment and human societies, and pose significant threats ...

Facultative mycorrhizal associations promote plant naturalization worldwide

Ecosphere, 2019
Mycorrhizal symbiosis has received relatively little attention as a mechanism explaining plant naturalizations at a global scale. Here, we combined data on vascular plant species occurrences in over 840 mainland and island regions from the Global ...

Biotic constraints on the establishment and performance of native, naturalized, and invasive plants in Pacific Northwest (USA) steppe and forest

NeoBiota, 2017
Factors that cause differential establishment among naturalized, invasive, and native species are inadequately documented, much less often quantified among different communities. We evaluated the effects of seed addition and disturbance (i.e., understory

Naturalized Alien Plant as Traditional Medicine Resources: A Study from Cibodas Biosphere Reserve, West Java

Jurnal Sylva Lestari, 2023
Cibodas Biosphere Reserve, with Gunung Gede Pangrango National Park as the core zone area, has an enormous number of naturalized alien species spread within it. There are 88 alien plant species, and more than 50% are utilized for many purposes.
