Human‐mediated introductions of Australian acacias – a global experiment in biogeography (2011, background): “…events (Le Roux et al., 2011), the role of different ecophysiological and life-history traits (Castro-Dı́ez et al., 2011; Gallagher et al., 2011; Gibson et al., 2011; Morris et al., 2011) and features of natural ranges (Hui et al., 2011) in determining invasiveness, and how metrics of human…”
Trees and shrubs as invasive alien species – a global review (2011, background): “Gibson et al. (2011) examined reproductive syndromes in invasive and non-invasive taxa and found no obvious differences, suggesting that most taxa are well equipped to become invasive.”
Predicting invasiveness of Australian acacias on the basis of their native climatic affinities, life history traits and human use (2011, background): “Dispersal by wind is not an important mode of expansion in acacias, and the role of seed size in mediating invasiveness is very different (Richardson & Kluge, 2008; Gibson et al., 2011).”
Species‐based risk assessments for biological invasions: advances and challenges (2013, background): “…above, current evidence suggests 1100 Diversity and Distributions, 19, 1095–1105, ª 2013 John Wiley & Sons Ltd that all taxa are potentially invasive (Gibson et al., 2011) and that historical outcomes of introduction (and therefore the notions of invasive versus non-invasive) are determined by…”
The evolution and phylogenetic placement of invasive Australian Acacia species (2011, background): “The level of invasiveness of different Australian acacias seems to have more to do with human-mediated events than with biological features of the species (Carruthers et al., 2011; Gibson et al., 2011; Griffin et al., 2011).”
Jack‐of‐all‐trades and master of many? How does associated rhizobial diversity influence the colonization success of Australian Acacia species? (2011, background): “…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…”
Global uses of Australian acacias – recent trends and future prospects (2011, background): “These biological attributes favour use as crop plants but also contribute to invasiveness (Gibson et al., 2011; Richardson & Rejmánek, 2011; Wilson et al., 2011), and this has created some conflict between production and invasions, especially in South Africa (van Wilgen et al., 2011).”
Ecophysiological traits associated with the competitive ability of invasive Australian acacias (2011, unknown): “Reproductive and dispersal strategies can also influence the likelihood of invasion success (Gibson et al., 2011).”
