Exotic biological control agents: A solution or contribution to arthropod invasions? (2016, background): “This is a situation that requires attention and supports a call for global rather than national strategies to promote opportunities in biological control (Garnas et al. 2012).”
Increasing numbers and intercontinental spread of invasive insects on eucalypts (2016, unknown): “These challenges have led to increased and more formalized global collaboration between eucalypt growers to share knowledge and biological control agents (Garnas et al. 2012).”
Complex patterns of global spread in invasive insects: eco-evolutionary and management consequences (2016, background): “…the growing volumes and rates of movement of goods and people, is the most important factor influencing the increase in the number of invasive insects and micro-organisms (Fisher et al. 2012; Garnas et al. 2012; Liebhold et al. 2012; Boyd et al. 2013; Santini et al. 2013; Roy et al. 2014).”
Pathogens on the Move: A 100-Year Global Experiment with Planted Eucalypts (2017, unknown): “The movement globally of a single dominant genotype is likely due to the so-called bridgehead effect (Garnas et al. 2012, Wingfield et al. 2015), in which successive introductions of a pathogen lead to inoculum build-up and an increased likelihood of subsequent introducitons.”
