The biogeography of naturalization in alien plants (2006, background): “Most introduced species fail to establish away from sites where they are nurtured by humans (Williamson & Fitter, 1996; Williamson, 1996; Mack, 2000; Richardson et al., 2000), so the number of casual, naturalized and invasive species in a region is determined by the number of alien species…”
Correlates of naturalization and occupancy of introduced ornamentals in Germany. (2008, background): “Secondly, it was demonstrated that repeated introductions and secondary releases through cultivation encourage plant naturalization and invasion (Mack, 2000; Kowarik, 2003; Richardson, 2006).”
Nonnative Species and Bioenergy: Are We Cultivating the Next Invader? (2008, background): “Many invasive species have horticultural or agronomic origins with long periods of cultivation that precede their escape, naturalization, spread, and subsequent environmental impacts (Mack 2000).”
Defining Conservation Strategies with Historical Perspectives: a Case Study from a Degraded Oak Grassland Ecosystem (2004, background): “This implies that invasion by some exotic flora was facilitated by the destabilization of the native plant communities rather than being determined by outright competitive superiority (Elton 1958; Mack 2000).”
From the backyard to the backcountry: how ecological and biological traits explain the escape of garden plants into Mediterranean old fields (2010, background): “Species introduced for horticultural purposes may have an advantage over accidentally introduced species because they may suffer less from demographic stochasticity due to small founding populations (Mack 1995, 2000).”
Five Potential Consequences of Climate Change for Invasive Species (2008, background): “Some of these species inevitably escape (Mack 2000) but do not establish because of an unsuitable climate.”
Plant invasion across space and time: factors affecting nonindigenous species success during four stages of invasion. (2007, background): “Because species introduced for human use are intentionally cultivated, they may suffer less as a result of environmental stochasticity and low population size (Mack, 1995, 2000).”
Novel urban ecosystems, biodiversity, and conservation. (2011, background): “opportunities to escape from cultivation (Mack, 2000; Kowarik, 2005b).”
ARE INVASIVE SPECIES THE DRIVERS OR PASSENGERS OF CHANGE IN DEGRADED ECOSYSTEMS (2005, background): “These species can be aggressive exploitation competitors (Grace et al. 2001, MacDougall and Turkington 2004), but they are also widely planted, leading to uncertainty whether dominance is caused by competition or by site history (e.g., Mack 2000).”
Plant Invasions in Protected Areas (2013, background): “Ornamental plantings represent a major source of alien species in many landscapes and the continued maintenance of these plants may be strongly linked with their ultimate invasion success (Mack 2000; Pyšek et al. 2009).”
On the Numerous Concepts in Invasion Biology (2006, background): “…and Hyatt 1999 Plant invasion Establishment, massive proliferation and spread of species in a new range, often far removed from their native range Mack 2000 Invader Biotic invaders are species that establish a new range in which they proliferate, spread and persist to the detriment of the…”
Biological invasions: recommendations for U.S. policy and management. (2006, background): “For S. Williams, this is contribution number 2351 from the Bodega Marine Laboratory, University of California–Davis.”
Alien flora of Europe: species diversity, temporal trends, geographical patterns and research needs. (2008, background): “It should be noted that the number of stowaways might be underestimated, because systematic recording is technically more difficult than inspecting commodities, such as seed admixtures (Mack 2000).”
Invasive Exotic Plants in the Tropical Pacific Islands: Patterns of Diversity (2009, background): “Large, habitat-diverse islands may support not only more species of habitat specialists, but also more habitat generalists whose persistence is enhanced by the availability of multiple suitable habitats on large heterogeneous islands (Ricklefs & Lovette 1999, Mack 2000).”
Predicting the Identity of Plant Invaders: Future Contributions from Horticulture (2005, background): “As benefi ciaries of cultivation, the founder populations of these species have subsequently given rise to many naturalizations (Mack, 1999, 2000).”
The role of botanic gardens as resource and introduction centres in the face of global change (2011, background): “…of traits that would increase the likelihood of escaped plants establishing themselves are considered equally important in the invasion process (Mack 2000; Kowarik 2003) and in an analysis of the British domestic market from 1885 to 1985, Dehnen-Schmutz et al. (2007a, b) showed that invading…”
Human Agency in Biological Invasions: Secondary Releases Foster Naturalisation and Population Expansion of Alien Plant Species (2003, background): “This enhances quantitatively the number of newly founded populations and may serve, as stressed by Mack (2000) for cultivation, as demographic buffers that foster naturalisation by damping environmental hazards.”
Changes in the plant community of a Brazilian grassland savannah after 22 years of invasion by Pinus elliottii Engelm (2011, background): “Preventing or controlling the entry of this species at an early stage of invasion would cost significantly less (Mack 2000 ).”
