Impacts of marine invaders on biodiversity depend on trophic position and functional similarity (2014, methodology): “…sizes from the same invasive species tested in multiple studies (e.g. Hawkes & Sullivan 2001, Parker et al. 2006, Morales & Traveset 2009) and from orthogonal and nested experiments (e.g. Gurevitch et al. 2000, Parker et al. 2006) as ‘independent subgroups within a study’ (Borenstein et al. 2009).”
Competitive interactions between the invasive green alga Codium fragile ssp. tomentosoides and native canopy-forming seaweeds in Nova Scotia (Canada) (2006, background): “Numerous published accounts support both the invasional meltdown (e.g. Ricciardi 2001, Wonham et al. 2005, Parker et al. 2006) and biotic resistance paradigms (e.g. Stachowicz et al. 1999, Ruiz et al. 2000, Britton-Simmons 2006).”
Ecological and evolutionary insights from species invasions. (2007, result): “Some support for this latter hypothesis comes from Parker et al. [ 61 ], who showed that invasion by exotic plants is more likely when native herbivores that fill generalist roles are absent.”
Precision and accuracy in quantifying herbivory (2016, background): “…to explain the spread of exotic plants when introduced plants lose their herbivores in their new environment (Keane & Crawley, 2002; Agrawal & Kotanen, 2003; Colautti et al., 2004), or when native or exotic herbivores selectively feed on native plants (Parker et al., 2006; Kalisz et al., 2014).”
An evolutionary ecology perspective to address forest pathology challenges of today and tomorrow (2016, unknown): “emies, since there will have been no selective pressure on resident plants to develop or maintain resistance to the new antagonist (Parker et al. 2006).”
Tolerance to herbivory, and not resistance, may explain differential success of invasive, naturalized, and native North American temperate vines (2007, background): “These different outcomes may depend on whether the invasive is phylogenetically similar to native plants, causing it to be palatable to native herbivores, or phylogenetically distant, thus attracting fewer herbivores in its new range (Mitchell et al ., 2006; Parker et al ., 2006).”
Bamboo overabundance alters forest structure and dynamics in the Atlantic Forest hotspot (2012, background): “Therefore, besides massive seed production and rapid growth, we hypothesize that the absence of large, generalist herbivores may be favoring Guadua expansion (sensu Parker et al., 2006).”
Impacts of Dreissena invasions on benthic macroinvertebrate communities: a meta‐analysis (2007, methodology): “By integrating results from multiple studies, synthetic statistical approaches such as meta-analysis offer powerful tools for detecting predictable patterns; indeed, recent syntheses have discovered new patterns explaining variation in invasion success and impact (e.g. Levine et al., 2004; Ricciardi”
Feeding and growth of native, invasive and non-invasive alien apple snails (Ampullariidae) in the United States: Invasives eat more and grow more (2011, background): “Introducing invasive apple snails into areas without native apple snails may lead to a larger impact as plant species in this area may not be able to resist or tolerate the voracious appetite of non-native apple snails with which they have not evolved (Parker et al. 2006).”
Introduced deer reduce native plant cover and facilitate invasion of non-native tree species: evidence for invasional meltdown (2010, background): “Owing to the differences in habit and habitat between exotic and native deer, it is likely that exotics can affect the forest in different ways than native deer (Parker et al. 2006).”
Can alien plants support generalist insect herbivores? (2010, background): “Recent meta-analyses and re-analysis of data from past studies suggest that some vertebrate and invertebrate herbivores may prefer alien foliage over native foliage (Parker and Hay 2005; Parker et al. 2006).”
Assessing the relative importance of disturbance, herbivory, diversity, and propagule pressure in exotic plant invasion (2009, background): “Although the increased abundance of exotic plants due to a reduction in generalist enemy regulation is not well documented in forest systems, introduced generalist grazers have been shown to facilitate the invasion of some exotic grasses (Mack 1981, O’Connor 1991, Hobbs 2001, Parker et al. 2006).”
