Classical biological control: exploiting enemy escape to manage plant invasions (2008, background): “…in the new range might influence the evolution of plant tolerance during the ht tp :// do c. re ro .c h invasion process (van Kleunen and Schmid 2003; Bossdorf et al. 2004), as this is expected to influence the outcome of biological control interventions (Müller-Schärer et al. 2004, Table 2c).”
Novel Weapons: Invasive Success and the Evolution of Increased Competitive Ability (2004, background): “The evolution of exotics can be rapid (Müller-Schärer et al. 2004); perhaps natives can evolve tolerance to the competitive traits of invaders and ultimately coexist more evenly.”
Can the enemy release hypothesis explain the success of invasive alien predators and parasitoids? (2011, background): “It is however becoming increasingly recognised that incorporating the fundamental difference between these functional groups is essential for testing the ERH or EICA hypotheses (Müller-Schärer et al. 2004).”
Scientific advances in the analysis of direct risks of weed biological control agents to nontarget plants (2005, background): “…release (Weld host speciWcity) will vary with environment (availability of hosts in time and space), genetic variation in host susceptibility (Müller-Schärer et al., 2004), and the interaction between these and agent behavior and physiological condition (motivation, age, experience, and…”
The advantages and disadvantages of being introduced (2006, background): “Second, based on the assumption that ‘‘qualitative defenses’’ such as alkaloids and glucosinolates are especially useful against generalists, whereas ‘‘quantitative defenses’’ such as lignins and tannins are more useful against specialists, introduced species should evolve low amounts only of quanti”
Comparing Invasive Plants from Their Native and Exotic Range: What Can We Learn for Biological Control?1 (2004, background): “The overall outcome of studies testing the EICA hypothesis probably depends on the defense system of the plant investigated, whether a trade-off between growth and defense actually exists, and on the type and intensity of herbivory in the exotic range (Müller-Schärer et al. 2004).”
Founding events in species invasions: genetic variation, adaptive evolution, and the role of multiple introductions (2008, background): “Nei et al. (1975) showed that the loss of genetic diversity is governed by the effective minimum (or founder) population size (Ne) and the growth rate of the population.”
Microevolution in biological control: Mechanisms, patterns, and processes (2005, background): “, 1993; Lucas, 1969; Remington, 1968; Roderick, 1992; Roush, 1990), development of hypotheses (Blossey and Nötzold, 1995; Müller-Schärer et al., 2004), and models (Holt and Hochberg, 1997), genetic surveys of biological control”
Dispersal and demography contributions to population spread of Carduus nutans in its native and invaded ranges (2008, background): “There are many possible reasons why a species may become invasive after arrival in a new area outside its native range (Keane & Crawley 2002; Lee 2002; Shea & Chesson 2002; M?ller-Sch?rer et al. 2004; Hierro et al. 2005).”
Ecological metabolomics: overview of current developments and future challenges (2011, background): “EICA proposes that invasive plants may still experience attack by local generalist herbivores (Müller-Schärer et al. 2004), but not by specialist herbivores.”
NO EVIDENCE FOR TRADE‐OFFS: CENTAUREA PLANTS FROM AMERICA ARE BETTER COMPETITORS AND DEFENDERS (2008, methodology): “We incorporated generalists into our experiments to test hypotheses suggested by Müller-Schärer et al. (2004).”
