Human Agency in Biological Invasions: Secondary Releases Foster Naturalisation and Population Expansion of Alien Plant Species (2003, background): “Prunus serotina, planted for multiple silvicultural purposes, exhibits a high generative reproduction at the sites of cultivation and may also invade non-forest habitats (Starfinger et al. 2003, see also Table 5).”
The EPPO prioritization process for invasive alien plants (2010, background): “Prunus serotina causes yield reduction and increases control costs in forestry and impedes the natural rejuvenation of forest trees (Starfinger et al., 2003; Decocq, 2007).”
On the Numerous Concepts in Invasion Biology (2006, background): “Furthermore, the perception of the non-native organism may change over time (Starfinger et al. 2003).”
Lag times and exotic species: The ecology and management of biological invasions in slow-motion (2005, background): “For example, the black cherry tree in Europe has over time been considered a valuable timber tree, a useful non-timber resource, a pest, a controllable weed, and finally a tolerated component of a now-changed ecosystem (Starfinger et al., 2003).”
Invasive host for invasive pest: when the Asiatic cherry fly (Drosophila suzukii) meets the American black cherry (Prunus serotina) in Europe (2014, background): “It was planted throughout Western Europe during the first half of the 20th Century, mainly in pine plantations and on drained substrates for soil improvement and timber production (Starfinger, 1997; Starfinger et al., 2003).”
Eucalyptus invasions in riparian forests: Effects on native vegetation community diversity, stand structure and composition (2013, background): “The lack of detailed assessments of impacts has in many cases thwarted the implementation of effective management strategies for invasive alien plants (Starfinger et al., 2003).”
A shade tolerance index for common understory species of northeastern North America (2007, background): “Surprisingly, Landolt (1977) gives a light level value of three in a nine level scale for P. serotina, that can be substantial since this species invades forest understories and supresses regeneration of other species (Starfinger, 1991, 1997; Starfinger et al., 2003).”
