Short‐ and long‐term effects of disturbance and propagule pressure on a biological invasion (2007, background): “In our system, native benthic grazers do not eat S. muticum adults (Britton-Simmons 2004; personal observation), but it is unknown whether they will consume new S. muticum recruits when they are very small (e.g. Sjøtun et al. 2007) and hence difficult to avoid ingesting incidentally.”
A Global Review of the Distribution, Taxonomy, and Impacts of Introduced Seaweeds (2007, background): “Despite eating introduced seaweeds, native herbivores have not been documented to control invader spread (Britton-Simmons 2004, Chavanich & Harris 2004, Conklin & Smith 2005, Davis et al. 2005, Gollan & Wright 2006a, Levin et al. 2002, Sumi & Scheibling 2005, Trowbridge 1995).”
Impacts of introduced seaweeds (2007, background): “Underwater light measurements support the notion that shading by S. muticum is the most likely factor preventing re-growth of native species (Britton-Simmons 2004).”
Impacts of marine invaders on biodiversity depend on trophic position and functional similarity (2014, background): “M 40.00 17.0 Britton-Simmons (2004) MP9–Sargassum muticum–Site 1 –0.555 NA t2 Richness P–”
How an introduced seaweed can affect epibiota diversity in different coastal systems (2006, background): “…areas, however, S. muticum has been shown to displace indigenous macroalgal species by competition for hard substratum and light (Stæhr et al. 2000; Britton-Simmons 2004), and observations by Bartsch and Tittley (2004) suggest that competition for space between S. muticum and H. siliquosa is…”
Invasion of alien macroalgae in different Mediterranean habitats (2009, background): “In fact, the spread of introduced benthic algae can lead to a complete cover of substrata, strongly affecting native assemblages and eroding biodiversity (Viejo 1997; Casas et al. 2004; Britton-Simmons 2004; Buschbaum et al. 2006).”
The genus Laminaria sensu lato : recent insights and developments (2008, unknown): “…parameters in Laminaria stands (e.g. Breuer & Schramm, 1988; Givernaud et al., 1991; Lambert et al., 1992; Schaffelke et al., 1996; Sivertsen, 1997; Cosson, 1999; Klotchkova & Berezovskaya, 2000; Morizur, 2001; Moy et al., 2003; Britton-Simmons, 2004; Gehling & Bartsch, unpublished data).”
Effects of native and invasive macroalgal canopies on composition and abundance of mobile benthic macrofauna and turf-forming algae (2007, background): “, 2000) and Washington State, USA (Britton-Simmons, 2004); and the kelp Undaria pinnatifida in Tasmania (Valentine and Johnson, 2005) and Patagonia (Casas et al.”
Competitive interactions between the invasive green alga Codium fragile ssp. tomentosoides and native canopy-forming seaweeds in Nova Scotia (Canada) (2006, background): “The invasion success of Codium in the northwest Atlantic, like that of the kelp Undaria pinnatifida in Tasmania (Valentine & Johnson 2003) and Sargassum muticum in the northeast Pacific (Britton-Simmons 2004, 2006), is contingent on disturbance to native canopy species that otherwise preempt space.”
Functional group diversity, resource preemption and the genesis of invasion resistance in a community of marine algae (2006, background): “Because it grows several meters taller than most native algae, S. muticum reduces light availability and decreases the abundance of native algae (Britton-Simmons 2004).”
Ecological impacts of invading seaweeds: a meta‐analysis of their effects at different trophic levels (2015, background): “…ecological, social and economic consequences have resulted in a plethora of studies aiming to estimate the direction and magnitude of the effects of non-native plants on resident species and communities (e.g. Britton-Simmons, 2004; Vil a et al., 2006; Liao et al., 2007; Bulleri et al., 2010).”
