Direct and indirect effects of native plants and herbivores on biotic resistance to alien aquatic plant invasions

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 108, Issue 4, Page 1487-1496, July 2020., 2020
We found evidence for biotic resistance through competition by native plant species. However, we show that herbivores can indirectly facilitate South American plant Egeria densa invasion promoting its growth through selective feeding on filamentous algae, but this effect depends on the native plant species involved.

The diverse nature of island isolation and its effect on land bridge insular faunas

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 29, Issue 2, Page 262-280, February 2020., 2020
Abstract Aim Isolation is a key factor in island biology. It is usually defined as the distance to the geographically nearest mainland, but many other definitions exist. We explored how testing different isolation indices affects the inference of impacts of isolation on faunal characteristics.

Allozyme diversity in slugs of the Carinarion complex (Mollusca, Pulmonata) [PDF]

open access: yesHeredity, 1997
Previous allozyme analyses of the hermaphroditic terrestrial slugs Arion fasciatus, A. circumscriptus and A. silvaticus (subgenus Carinarion) have suggested that in North America these species are each single monomorphic strains. However, new data on 18 putative enzyme loci show that in western Europe the three taxa, respectively, consist of at least ...
