The Impacts of Sprawl on Biodiversity: the Ant Fauna of the Lower Florida Keys
Ecology and Society, 2005 Sprawling development can affect species composition by increasing the rate of invasion by non-native species, and decreasing the persistence of native species.

Insects, 2022 Urban ecosystems can support diverse communities of wild native bees. Because bloom times are conserved by geographic origin, incorporating some non-invasive non-native plants in urban landscapes can extend the flowering season and help support bees and ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Long-term evaluation of the impact of urbanization on native and non-native fish assemblages [PDF]
Aquatic InvasionsUrbanization often leads to the homogenization of species composition in aquatic ecosystems, as it introduces disturbances that can destroy the habitats of unique endemic or native species while creating alternative habitats for species capable of ...

Predicting Forest Pest Threats in Australia: Are Risk Lists Worth the Paper they’re Written on?
Global Biosecurity, 2022 We reviewed exotic insect species that are considered threats to Australia’s plantation, amenity, native forests and timber-in-service (“risk species”), comparing them to already-established non-native species.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Non-native Species and the Aesthetics of Nature [PDF]
, 2017 How humans perceive and judge nature and relate it to their life is shaped by emotional, cognitive, cultural, and social factors. Whether a species is considered native, non-native, or invasive can affect such aesthetics of nature by interacting with our emotions, affronting or confirming our cognitive categories, or engaging in our social, economic ...
