Dynamics of biotic resistance to plant invasions
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Biotic resistance, the reduction in invasion success caused by native communities, plays an important role in the long‐term dynamics of biological invasions. A large body of empirical research on biotic resistance has accumulated since the last comprehensive review on the subject 20 years ago, enabling us to achieve a refined understanding of ...

Kin discrimination in plants: overview and implications for population and community ecology
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Following the discovery of identity discrimination, particularly self and kin discrimination amongst plant competitors, research on interplant interactions has advanced significantly within plant physiology and evolutionary ecology. This review synthesizes current knowledge on how both self and kin discrimination influence plant growth ...

A global meta‐analysis of non‐lethal mammal browsing control in forests
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Increasing resource demand, desire to sequester atmospheric carbon, and conservation goals are driving a need for forests to be managed more effectively in the face of numerous challenges. One such challenge is damage perpetrated by browsing mammals, which can cause substantial financial and ecological impacts.

Land birds on atolls: diversity, origin, and function
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Oceanic islands are global hotspots of avian biodiversity and endemism. Their isolation and distinct environmental conditions have uniquely shaped the evolutionary trajectories of island birds, while, in turn, land bird communities have become critical providers of ecological functions to island ecosystems.

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT During their long evolutionary history, land plants have evolved a range of adaptations to different abiotic stressors. These help explain present‐day diversity and distribution patterns, as well as the potential resilience of natural and agricultural systems to a changing climate. Most previous research has focused on adaptation to individual

Biotic modulators of global change effects on plant communities
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Understanding and predicting future plant biodiversity and productivity is critical for prioritizing global change mitigation, conservation, and restoration efforts. One major challenge is that we know remarkably little about how interspecific interactions may modulate the effects of global change factors on diversity and productivity.
