Plant invasion across space and time: factors affecting nonindigenous species success during four stages of invasion. (2007, background): “Landscape structure and connectivity also affect gene flow, influencing the ability of NIPS to adapt to novel conditions (With, 2004; Taylor & Hastings, 2005).”
Soil seed banks in plant invasions: promoting species invasiveness and long-term impact on plant community dynamics. (2012, background): “The formation of a seed bank may also allow an alien species to overcome densitydependent effects and/or Allee effects (Allee 1931, Taylor & Hastings 2005), which may play a central role in the establishment of a species, particularly during the introduction phase and for self-incompatible founder…”
The evidence for Allee effects (2009, background): “Fig. 1 Definition of the demographic Allee effect (as in Boukal and Berec 2002 or Taylor and Hastings 2005 ).”
Allee Effects in Ecology and Conservation (2008, background): “For passive dispersers, dispersal works to dilute the population at any given location, thereby requiring higher initial densities to overcome the Allee effect than in counterpart non-spatial models (Taylor and Hastings 2005).”
Short‐ and long‐range dispersal of medfly, Ceratitis capitata (Dipt., Tephritidae), and its invasive potential (2007, background): “However, the chances of an incipient propagule establishing itself can depend on most dispersal distances being short so that a sufficient density of individuals remains around the point of introduction (Bateman 1977; Hopper and Roush 1993; Kot et al. 1996; Veit and Lewis 1996; Meats 1998a; South an”
Predator-free space, functional responses and biological invasions (2015, background): “…mediates the establishment and persistence of invasive species are highly relevant to community ecology (e.g. Byers 2002), not least because low population Allee effects can interact with biotic resistance offered by resident predators to determine invasion success (Taylor & Hastings 2005).”
The role of species traits in the establishment success of exotic birds (2009, background): “Dichromatic and migratory species are less likely to establish than monochromatic and sedentary species (Table 1), consistent with predictions that susceptibility to Allee effects should vary with the degree of sexual selection and dispersal mode (Taylor & Hastings, 2005).”
Hybridization and the evolution of invasiveness in plants and other organisms (2009, background): “Recent theoretical (Taylor and Hastings 2005) and empirical studies (Taylor et al. 2004) have demonstrated the importance of Allee effects (mate shortage, selfincompatibility) in the dynamics of biological invasions.”
Mechanistic modelling of animal dispersal offers new insights into range expansion dynamics across fragmented landscapes (2014, background): “Most of the studies on mate-finding Allee effect have focussed on invasive species (Taylor and Hastings 2005), while there is still little theory on how mate limitation can affect species’ spread rate over fragmented landscapes and more applied models rarely incorporate this behaviour.”
Complex responses of global insect pests to climate warming (2020, background): “…associated with fragmented habitats (Bianchi et al. 2006) and may therefore have higher local extinction risks due to Allee effects (ie low population densities that make it difficult for individuals to find mates) or to localized high temperatures as the climate warms (Taylor and Hastings 2005).”
