Local and regional assessments of the impacts of plant invaders on vegetation structure and soil properties of Mediterranean islands (2006, background): “For example, observational studies across many sites and vegetation types have found that the relationship between native and alien species richness is generally positive (Stohlgren et al., 1999; Stohlgren & Chong, 2002; Gilbert & Lechowicz, 2005 ), contradicting early theories that communities wit”
The invasion paradox: reconciling pattern and process in species invasions. (2007, background): “The reporting of native–exotic richness patterns from a variety of ecosystems is growing (e.g., Stohlgren et al. 1999, 2003, 2006a, Brown and Peet 2003, Cleland et al. 2004, Gilbert and Lechowicz 2005), but is also controversial (Rejmanek 2003, Taylor and Irwin 2004).”
Effects of small-scale disturbance on invasion success in marine communities (2007, background): “…that increased disturbance should lead to increased invader success, results from empirical studies do not always support this theory (Hobbs, 1989; DeFerrari and Naiman, 1994; Stachowicz et al., 1999; Seabloom et al., 2003; Gilbert and Lechowicz, 2005; Klein et al., 2005; Gross et al., 2005).”
Disentangling relationships between habitat conditions, disturbance history, plant diversity, and American black cherry (Prunus serotina Ehrh.) invasion in a European temperate forest (2007, background): “Hence, the degree to which a native community is unsaturated, or lacks diversity due to a limited regional pool of species, highly accounts for its invasibility (Tilman, 1997; Gilbert & Lechowicz, 2005).”
Distribution of alien vs. native plant species in roadside communities along an altitudinal gradient in Tenerife and Gran Canaria (Canary Islands) (2005, background): “The importance of the biogeographical approach and the species pool hypothesis to plant invasions has been stressed only recently (Gilbert and Lechowicz, 2005; Hierro et al., 2005).”
Overstorey tree species regulate colonization by native and exotic plants: a source of positive relationships between understorey diversity and invasibility (2008, background): “…1999; Levine, 2000; McKinney, 2002; Sax, 2002; Brown & Peet, 2003; Cleland et al ., 2004; Espinosa-García et al ., 2004; Davies et al ., 2005; Gilbert & Lechowicz, 2005; Richardson et al ., 2005; but see Stachowicz et al ., 2002) have shown positive relationships between diversity and…”
Intact forests provide only weak resistance to a shade‐tolerant invasive Norway maple (Acer platanoides L.) (2006, background): “Other factors may be important as well; recent research has indicated that resistance to invasion is significantly lower in ecosystems with higher soil fertility (Stohlgren et al. 1998; Kalkhan & Stohlgren 2000; Williamson & Harrison 2002; Howard et al. 2004; Gilbert & Lechowicz 2005 ), particularl”
