• Chromolaena odorata (L.) King and Robinson (Asteraceae) (2009, background): “Flowering is often prolific, and in both the native and invasive ranges, fertile seed is produced without pollination, as the species is apomictic (Coleman, 1989; Rambuda and Johnson, 2004).”
• Direct interactions between invasive plants and native pollinators: evidence, impacts and approaches (2017, background): “Some species have been reported to be self-incompatible (SI) in their native range, but SC in the invasive range (Rambuda & Johnson 2004; Ward, Johnson & Zalucki 2012), suggesting that post-introduction selection has driven the evolution of SC, which could be due to inadequate pollinator attention.”
• Reproductive biology of Australian acacias: important mediator of invasiveness? (2011, methodology): “We used the classification scheme of Richardson & Rejmánek (2011) to define which species are considered invasive (n = 23).”
• A test of baker’s law: breeding systems of invasive species of Asteraceae in China (2011, background): “…seed set among our 12 species of Asteraceae that are invasive in China is larger than expected, we compared it to the frequency of species with potential for autonomous seed set in a data set of 139 species of Asteraceae from around the world (Fryxell 1957; also see Rambuda and Johnson 2004).”
• The more the better? The role of polyploidy in facilitating plant invasions. (2012, background): “However, the inability to overcome major genomic constraints on reproduction often leads to rapid development of asexual reproduction in polyploids, a life history trait that has been linked to invasiveness (Rambuda and Johnson, 2004).”
• Trait interactions help explain plant invasion success in the German flora (2008, background): “The relevance of the potential for independent reproduction with seeds suggests that Baker’s law applies to invasion success as well (see also Rambuda & Johnson 2004; van Kleunen & Johnson 2007).”
• Why Reproductive Systems Matter for the Invasion Biology of Plants (2010, background): “Efforts to investigate the importance of uniparental reproduction for colonization have largely come from surveys of introduced species (Brown & Marshall 1981 ; Price & Jain 1981 ; Williamson & Fitter 1996 ; Rambuda & Johnson 2004 ).”
