Integrating invasive species policies across ornamental horticulture supply-chains to prevent plant invasions (2018, unknown): “The global trade in ornamental nursery stock is the dominant pathway by which invasive alien plants have been introduced worldwide (Lambdon et al. 2008; Jiang et al. 2011; Lehan et al. 2013; Dodd et al. 2015; Rojas-Sandoval & Acevedo-Rodriguez 2015; Faulkner et al. 2016).”
Small urban centres as launching sites for plant invasions in natural areas: insights from South Africa (2017, background): “Horticulture is an important pathway for the introduction and dissemination of alien plants around the world (Hodkinson and Thompson 1997; Reichard and White 2001; Richardson et al. 2003; DehnenSchmutz et al. 2007a, b; Foxcroft et al. 2008; Lambdon et al. 2008).”
Alien Vascular Plants of Europe (2009, methodology): “The spectrum of pathways is very similar for the complete European alien flora, as both groups of aliens, in Europe and to Europe, do not substantially differ in the proportional contribution of individual pathways (Lambdon et al. 2008).”
Biological Flora of the British Isles: Robinia pseudoacacia (2013, background): “pseudoacacia has been widely planted and is now well-established in the southern parts of the British Isles and continental Europe (Clement & Foster 1994; Kowarik 2010), being one of the three most widely distributed non-native plant species in Europe (Lambdon et al. 2008).”
An inventory of invasive alien species in China (2012, background): “As in other regions (Lambdon et al. 2008), two categories of non-native species can then be differentiated: species non-native to China and species native to one part of China but non-native to others.”
An updated checklist of the vascular flora alien to Italy (2018, background): “…activities, introduction pathways, taxonomic diversity, geographic origin, and temporal trends, traditionally examined in the context of alien plant invasion in Europe (Verloove 2006; Lambdon et al. 2008; Pyšek et al. 2009), need to be explored within a more specific research framework for Italy.”
The more the better? The role of polyploidy in facilitating plant invasions. (2012, background): “They became widely naturalized and now represent some of the worst weeds in these areas, invading mostly ruderal habitats and semi-natural vegetation along rivers (Lambdon et al., 2008; Pyšek, 2009).”
