The Potential Conservation Value of Non‐Native Species (2011, background): “By contrast, non-native plantation trees are able to survive and subsequently attract seed dispersers and establish microclimates in which native plants can reestablish (Lugo 1997; Rodriguez 2006).”
Ecological Impacts of Nonnative Freshwater Fishes (2011, background): “Our investigation focuses on the negative impacts of fish introductions, although we readily acknowledge that non-native fishes have also been associated with positive outcomes (see Rodriguez 2006 ; Gozlan 2008 ).”
Ecosystem engineering facilitates invasions by exotic plants in high‐Andean ecosystems (2007, background): “2000; Rodriguez 2006).”
Plantations of exotic tree species in Britain: irrelevant for biodiversity or novel habitat for native species? (2010, background): “The mechanism by which exotic conifers facilitate native species is likely to be through habitat provision rather than other potential mechanisms such as trophic subsidy, pollination, or release from competition or predation ( Rodriguez 2006 ).”

Global meta‐analysis of the impacts of terrestrial invertebrate invaders on species, communities and ecosystems (2016, background): “However, organisms at higher trophic levels may benefit from habitat formation or the provision of food by invaders (Rodriguez, 2006; Thomsen et al., 2014).”
What a difference a species makes: a meta–analysis of dreissenid mussel impacts on freshwater ecosystems (2010, background): “The facilitation of native species by invasives is not commonly addressed in the scientific literature (Rodriguez 2006).”
Impacts of Dreissena invasions on benthic macroinvertebrate communities: a meta‐analysis (2007, background): “Comparisons with other introduced mussel species Facilitation of benthic organisms may be a general effect of introduced habitat engineers that create physical structures or increase habitat complexity (Crooks & Khim, 1999; Crooks, 2002; Rodriguez, 2006).”

Positive versus negative effects of an invasive ecosystem engineer on different components of a marine ecosystem (2013, background): “However, the responses of native communities to habitat-forming invasive species can be varied, with both positive and negative effects reported (Crooks 2002, Rodriguez 2006).”
Destruction without extinction: long‐term impacts of an invasive tree species on Galápagos highland vegetation (2009, background): “In Hawaiian forests, structurally simplified by forest management, this process might have resulted in the functional replacement of parts of the previous natural vegetation structure that had been destroyed (substitutive facilitation sensu Rodriguez 2006).”
Effects of the invasive seagrass Halophila stipulacea on the native seagrass, Syringodium filiforme, and associated fish and epibiota communities in the Eastern Caribbean. (2012, background): “Invasive species have been reported to facilitate native species through mechanisms including pollination, habitat modification, and predatory release (see Rodriguez, 2006 for review).”
