• An inventory of invasive alien species in China (2012, background): “Yet as most plants are dispersal-limited even after an initial introduction to a country, subsequent secondary releases within a region often function as an important driver of plant invasions for a long period of time after the initial introduction to a country (Kowarik 2003).”
• Ecology in an anthropogenic biosphere (2015, background): “…(telecoupling; Helmus et al. 2014), albeit in novel assemblages, habitats, and ecosystems that may have little resemblance to prior native forms (Smith and Wishnie 2000, Kowarik 2003, 2011, Stork 2010, Ellis et al. 2012, Dornelas et al. 2013, Ellis 2013, Thomas 2013, Mendenhall et al. 2014).”
• Changes in the spatio-temporal patterns and habitat preferences of Ambrosia artemisiifolia during its invasion of Austria. (2009, background): “Such analyses are also crucial for developing strategies for successful management of invasive alien species (Williamson 1996, Kowarik 2003a).”
• Water dispersal as an additional pathway to invasions by the primarily wind-dispersed tree Ailanthus altissima (2008, background): “As plantations often foster the colonization of otherwise inaccessible habitats (Kowarik 2003), riparian populations of A.”
• The alien flora of Kashmir Himalaya (2007, background): “because of which the number of plant and animal species translocated by humans, either deliberately or by accident, has drastically increased (Drake et al. 1989; Williamson 1996; Mack et al. 2000; Kowarik 2003; Perrings et al. 2005) and”
• Correlates of naturalization and occupancy of introduced ornamentals in Germany. (2008, background): “The influence of the planting frequency in gardens on occupancy was only revealed in the single variable models, indicating that increased propagule pressure through frequent planting and human-mediated dispersal has some influence on species’ invasion (e.g. Kowarik, 2003; Kr̆ivánek et al., 2006).”
• A century of the ornamental plant trade and its impact on invasion success (2007, background): “, 2005), equally important factors in the plant invasion process are (1) the repeated local introduction of plants through local market outlets, and (2) the development through plant breeding of traits that increase the likelihood that escaped plants will establish (Mack, 2000; Kowarik, 2003).”
• The role of botanic gardens as resource and introduction centres in the face of global change (2011, background): “Repeated local introductions through market outlets and development of traits that would increase the likelihood of escaped plants establishing themselves are considered equally important in the invasion process (Mack 2000; Kowarik 2003) and in an analysis of the British domestic market from 1885”
• On the Numerous Concepts in Invasion Biology (2006, background): “A number of authors have pointed out that the terminology related to non-native species has often been applied inconsistently (Pyšek 1995; Mack 1996; Schwartz 1996; Bullock 1997, Richardson et al. 2000; CBD 2001; Marco et al. 2002; Kowarik 2003).”
• Inventory of the non‐native flora of Italy (2009, background): “We considered hybrids between native and nonnative taxa as aliens, and thus included them in the catalogue if they have at least one non-native parental taxon, even if hybridization occurred in Italy (see, e.g. Py [scaron] ek et al. 2002b; Kowarik 2003b).”
• Prevalence of alien versus native species of woody plants in Berlin differs between habitats and at different scales. (2013, background): “Maintenance activities such as irrigation can help protect juvenile plants from detrimental environmental effects (Mack 2000), and tree plantings can facilitate population establishment by overcoming spatial separation from adequate but otherwise inaccessible sites (Kowarik 2003).”
• Japanese Honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica) as an Invasive Species; History, Ecology, and Context (2004, background): “Occurrences of Japanese honeysuckle often begin with humans through its use as roadside stabilizer or ornamental and are consistent with the hypothesis that human dispersal is important not only as a primary but also a secondary mechanism in the naturalization process ( Kowarik, 2003 ).”
• Invasive alien plant species in China: regional distribution patterns (2005, background): “The paramount importance of deliberate and accidental introductions as a prerequisite for subsequent invasions has been stressed repeatedly (Reichard & White, 2001; Kowarik, 2003).”
