Concepts for biocontrol in marine environments: is there a way forward? (2015, unknown): “Terrestrial biocontrol programmes generally aim to suppress populations to low levels, thereby reducing density-dependent adverse effects (i.e. effects whose intensity increases with increasing pest density, Hoddle 2004).”
Benefits of Classical Biological Control for Managing Invasive Plants (2005, background): “…herbivores and other natural enemies that regulate their abundance and distribution in their native regions (Keane and Crawley, 2002; McEvoy, 2002; Hoddle, 2004), although other factors as well are likely to contribute to the tendency for particular plant species to become invasive (McEvoy and…”
Lag times and exotic species: The ecology and management of biological invasions in slow-motion (2005, background): “There has been some controversy surrounding this topic, particularly as related to biocontrol species with high degrees of host specificity (Secord & Karieva, 1996; Hoddle, 2004; Louda & Stiling, 2004).”
Impacts of Invasive Species on Food Webs: A Review of Empirical Data (2017, background): “First, a specialist able to eliminate the invasive species will, by definition, not exist in the native community, so that such species often have to be taken from the invasive range, technically opening the door for a new invasion (Hoddle, 2004).”
Biological control of invasive species: solution or pollution? (2006, unknown): “Hoddle MS. 2002.”
Worldwide decline of the entomofauna: A review of its drivers (2019, background): “Insect biological control has helped mitigate hundreds of harmful invasive pests worldwide, though unintended ecological impacts have been recorded for at least 10 ill-fated historical efforts (Heimpel and Cock, 2018; Hajek et al., 2016; Hoddle, 2004).”
A review of introductions of pathogens and nematodes for classical biological control of insects and mites (2007, background): “Critics state that predicting the outcomes of such introductions is infinitely more complex than simply stating that introductions of exotic biological control agents are needed to impart balance to populations of established invasive non-native species (Hoddle, 2004).”
The Double‐Edged Sword of Biological Control in Conservation and Restoration (2004, background): “In sum, these data augment the cases listed by Hoddle (2004) and document both unexpected interactions and unpredicted intensities of interaction with native species by insects used as biological control agents.”
Modern approaches for the biological control of vertebrate pests: An Australian perspective (2010, background): “volved the deployment of vertebrate predators for the control of other pests (Hoddle, 2002).”
Larvicidal Efficiency of Aquatic Predators: A Perspective for Mosquito Biocontrol (2006, background): “Comparative research on introduced and indigenous larvivorous fish feeding is particularly scarce, although it is crucial to determine the impacts of their introduction to ecosystems (Hoddle 2004).”
Benefits and risks of exotic biological control agents (2011, unknown): “…biological control has led to the protection of biodiversity and/or the protection of products harvested from natural systems and has aided in restoring natural systems affected by adventive species or even preserved ecosystem services (van Driesche 1994; Hoddle 2004; van Driesche et al. 2010).”
A place for alien species in ecosystem restoration (2004, background): “Other plants are similarly adept at accumulating nickel, zinc, selenium, and other metals, while the alien plants that blanket eutrophic lakes and marshes consume large quantities of phosphorus.”
Animal Translocations: What are they and why do we do them? (2012, unknown): “…worldwide, cane toads (Bufo marinus) to target various invertebrate crops pests in Australia, and red foxes and mustelids to control rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) in Australia and New Zealand, and that since then increased regulation has reduced risks (Thomas & Willis, 1998; Hoddle, 2004).”
Biological invasions and biocultural diversity: linking ecological and cultural systems (2008, background): “…Opuntia spp. Scientists fear its spread to Mexico, where it would threaten > 50 endangered native Opuntia spp., significant cultural resources for Mexicans used in food, fodder, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, and the host plant for the cochineal dye industry (Zimmermann et al. 2000; Hoddle 2004).”
