Possible Impacts of the Invasive Plant Rubus niveus on the Native Vegetation of the Scalesia Forest in the Galapagos Islands [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Originally from Asia, Rubus niveus has become one of the most widespread invasive plant species in the Galapagos Islands. It has invaded open vegetation, shrubland and forest alike.

Globally Distributed Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi Associated With Invasive Cinchona pubescens on Santa Cruz Island, Galápagos. [PDF]
Ecol EvolArbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are crucial for plant survival and may influence the success of invasive species. This study investigated the AMF communities associated with the invasive Cinchona pubescens on Santa Cruz Island, Galápagos, and in its endangered native range in Ecuador.
