Jack‐of‐all‐trades and master of many? How does associated rhizobial diversity influence the colonization success of Australian Acacia species? (2011, background): “Improved insights in this regard will complement advances in the understanding of how other factors mediate invasibility (e.g. Castro-Dı́ez et al., 2011; Gibson et al., 2011; Hui et al., 2011), facilitating more effective management of existing invasions and assisting in the prevention of new…”
Risk assessment, eradication, and biological control: global efforts to limit Australian acacia invasions (2011, background): “The limitations of existing risk assessments have stimulated research on predictive correlates of invasiveness (Castro-Dı́ez et al., 2011; Hui et al., 2011).”
Ecophysiological traits associated with the competitive ability of invasive Australian acacias (2011, unknown): “…introduced species play an important role in the subsequent scale of invasion (Lockwood et al., 2005; Wilson et al., 2007; Carruthers et al., 2011; Castro-Dı́ez et al., 2011; Griffin et al., 2011; 1Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, Campus Box 334, University of Colorado, Boulder, CO…”
Global uses of Australian acacias – recent trends and future prospects (2011, background): “Invasive success of Australian acacias is closely tied with propagule pressure and the extent of use and dissemination (Castro-Dı́ez et al., 2011).”
The more the better? The role of polyploidy in facilitating plant invasions. (2012, background): “The latest observations even found all three floral morphs in both tetra- and pentaploid plants to occur in a single locality in southwestern Portugal (Castro et al., 2009).”
MAcroecological Framework for Invasive Aliens (MAFIA): disentangling large-scale context dependence in biological invasions (2020, background): “2020) and statistical models of macroecological patterns (e.g. Rouget and Richardson 2003; Thuiller et al. 2006; Wilson et al. 2007; Küster et al. 2008, 2010; Pyšek et al. 2009a, b, 2015; Castro-Díez et al. 2011; Schmidt and Drake 2011; Dawson et al. 2017; Essl et al. 2019).”
Reproductive biology of Australian acacias: important mediator of invasiveness? (2011, background): “Previous studies comparing life-history traits of invasive species have found several reproductive traits including seed mass, fecundity (number of seeds produced), dispersal mode and dispersal ability to be important for overcoming barriers to invasion in a new environment (Hamilton et al., 2005; P”
Support for major hypotheses in invasion biology is uneven and declining (2012, background): “…et al. 2000) is very complex and it is governed by an interaction of habitat conditions (e.g., climate), species functional traits (e.g., tolerance to environmental factors) and human factors (e.g., uses of the species) (Kolar and Lodge 2001, Gherardi 2007, Nentwing 2007, Castro-Díez et al. 2011).”
Current mismatch between research and conservation efforts: The need to study co-occurring invasive plant species (2013, background): “We now have better trait-based models to predict which exotic plant species might become invasive (Rejmánek and Richardson, 1996; Ordonez et al., 2010; Castro-Díez et al., 2011), an improved sense of potential factors that may influence community susceptibility to invasion (Levine and D’Antonio, 199”
Impacts of invasive Australian acacias: implications for management and restoration (2011, background): “, 2011 for taxonomic details) are major or emerging invaders in many parts of the world (Castro-Dı́ez et al., 2011; Richardson & Rejmánek, 2011; Richardson et al., 2011).”
