Biological invasions: recommendations for U.S. policy and management. (2006, background): “…long-term changes in ecosystems and the goods and services that they provide to humans are driven by nonindigenous species, including, for example, degradation of U.S. western rangeland and increased fire damage caused by the widespread invasion by Bromus tectorum (cheatgrass; Grace et al. 2001).”
Selective and Non‐Selective Control of Invasive Plants: The Short‐Term Effects of Growing‐Season Prescribed Fire, Herbicide, and Mowing in Two Texas Prairies (2007, background): “…on these shrinking ecosystems, exacerbated by changing disturbance regimens, such as altered wildfire frequency or increased grazing intensity, either of which could shift the balance of plant community dominance in favor of the invader (Collins et al. 1995; Grace et al. 2001; Daehler 2003).”
Biodiversity, phenology and temporal niche differences between native- and novel exotic-dominated grasslands (2011, background): “Most exotic plant species were intentionally introduced as ornamentals, for forage and erosion control, or as food plants (Mack and Lonsdale, 2001; Grace et al., 2001; Weber, 2003; Knapp et al., 2010).”
Alien plant invasions in tropical and sub-tropical savannas: patterns, processes and prospects (2010, background): “Alternatively, fires may promote invasions by disadvantaging native grasses (Grace et al. 2001).”
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).”
