• Assessing the benefits and risks of translocations in changing environments: a genetic perspective (2011, background): “…that are prone to genetic drift and therefore maladaptation; Lopez et al. 2009) that ‘genetic pollution’ by alien genotypes with a strong competitive ability (Saltonstall 2002) is limited (sensu Potts et al. 2003) and that outbreeding depression is avoided (see Box 1; Hufford and Mazer 2003).”
• Genetic effects of forest management practices: Global synthesis and perspectives (2014, background): “…remnants during harvesting (do Nascimento et al., 2010); changing the biotic environment, such as increasing the pest (mammal, invertebrate, fungal, bacterial) load (Jairus et al., 2011); and changing native gene pools through the invasion of native forest by introduced seed (Potts et al., 2003).”
• Biological invasions at the gene level (2004, background): “…or competitive ability at high density), and simultaneous transfer of locally adapted alleles from the pre-existing species into the invading one (for instance, alleles involved in latitudinal adaptation) could have accelerated the process of postglacial recolonization (Petit et al ., 2004b).”
• Hybridization as a mechanism of invasion in oaks (2003, background): “, 2001) or other tree species, both wind- and insect-pollinated (Potts et al., 2003), indicate that pollen-mediated invasion could be a widespread phenomenon in species where pollen flow predominates over seed dispersal (i.”
• Maintenance of high pollen dispersal in Eucalyptus wandoo, a dominant tree of the fragmented agricultural region in Western Australia (2008, methodology): “Population differentiation was calculated using the RST estimate of Rousset (1996) implemented in FSTAT (Goudet 2001).”
• Seed supply for broadscale restoration: maximizing evolutionary potential (2008, background): “…(Mortlock 2000a), reduced risk of restoration failure due to maladaptation to local conditions (McKay et al. 2005), limiting ‘pollution’ of local gene pools and outbreeding depression (Templeton 1986; Potts et al. 2003), and avoiding resource provisioning at inappropriate times (Jones et al. 2001).”
