• The role of intraspecific hybridization in the evolution of invasiveness: a case study of the ornamental pear tree Pyrus calleryana (2009, background): “We are still at an early stage in understanding how frequently intraspecific hybridization leads to invasiveness but the cases identified so far (Lavergne and Molofsky 2004, 2007; Williams et al. 2005, 2007; Culley and Hardiman 2007) indicate that it can occur in several unrelated species.”
• Negative per capita effects of purple loosestrife and reed canary grass on plant diversity of wetland communities (2006, background): “Its origin is currently in dispute, and some believe it has mixed origins stemming from hybridization of North American and European populations (Galatowitsch et al ., 1999; Lavergne & Molofsky, 2004).”
• Increasing the Effectiveness of Reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea L.) Control in Wet Meadow Restorations (2006, background): “In addition to SEPTEMBER 2006 Restoration Ecology 449 site-specific control measures, our results support restricting use of P. arundinacea (Lavergne & Molofsky 2004) to limit spread of this species in North America and increase the success of attempts to restore native species in P.…”
• Biological consequences of invasion by reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea) (2009, background): “RCG has poor palatability due to high concentrations and diversity of alkaloids (Brodersen et al. 2008; Bush et al. 2007; Gauthier and Bedard 1991; Lavergne and Molofsky 2004; Marten et al. 1976).”
• How tussocks structure sedge meadow vegetation (2006, result): “…richness, as found in many other studies (Wetzel and van der Valk 1998, Budelsky and Galatowitsch 2000, Green and Galatowitsch 2001, 2002, Maurer and Zedler 2002, Miller and Zedler 2003, Houlahan and Findlay 2004, Kercher and Zedler 2004, Lavergne and Molofsky 2004, Zedler and Kercher 2004).”
