Non-native species and invasion biology in a megadiverse country: scientometric analysis and ecological interactions in Brazil (2016, methodology): “We obtained information concerning the introduction causes from the I3N Brazil Invasive Alien Species Database (I3N 2016), or from the paper itself when provided, or from other references about the species.”
General hypotheses in invasion ecology (2014, methodology): “According to the enemy release hypothesis, the absence of enemies in the exotic range is a cause of invasion success (Maron & Vil a, 2001; Keane & Crawley, 2002; Jeschke et al., 2012a,b; Heger & Jeschke, 2014).”
Complex patterns of global spread in invasive insects: eco-evolutionary and management consequences (2016, background): “The Enemy Release Hypothesis is a central and wellsupported (if partial) explanation of the success of invasive species (Roy and Lawson Handley 2012; Heger and Jeschke 2014).”
Structuring evidence for invasional meltdown: broad support but with biases and gaps (2018, methodology): “We thus weighted studies according to these aspects, adapting the formula suggested by Heger and Jeschke (2014) for study weight w: w ¼ m ffiffiffi n p i j; where, m is a score for the research method (1 for observational enclosure studies, 2 for observational field studies or experimental…”
