Impact of invasive alien plants on the resident floral diversity in Koshi Tappu Wildlife Reserve, Nepal. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Abstract Invasive alien plant species (IAPS) pose a serious threat to overall plant biodiversity across the globe. Nepal's national parks and protected areas are not devoid of the impact of IAPS. Unfortunately, there is a substantial gap in knowledge regarding the extent and impact of invasion in protected areas of Nepal. This study assessed the impact
