Does biotic resistance govern forest invasions by bark and ambrosia beetles?
Ecography, EarlyView.The theory of biotic resistance states that community diversity promotes resistance to biological invasions. This theory has been widely explored for its ability to explain variation in habitat invasibility to non‐native plant species and while the theory holds in some systems, it does not in others.
