• Utilization and transfer of forest genetic resources: A global review (2014, background): “Exploration by Europeans in Australia and North America in the 19th century also resulted in international transfers of tree germplasm (i.e., seed, cuttings or other propagating parts of a tree) for forestry purposes, and such exchange continues to this day (Griffin et al., 2011).”
• Ecophysiological traits associated with the competitive ability of invasive Australian acacias (2011, unknown): “…an important role in the subsequent scale of invasion (Lockwood et al., 2005; Wilson et al., 2007; Carruthers et al., 2011; Castro-Dı́ez et al., 2011; Griffin et al., 2011; 1Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, Campus Box 334, University of Colorado, Boulder, CO 80309, USA, 2Department…”
• A native at home and abroad: the history, politics, ethics and aesthetics of acacias (2011, background): “The more recent surges in plantations of tropical wattles (e.g. A. mangium) in Southeast Asia are direct responses to national government incentives to supply raw materials for both domestic and export demand for wood pulp (Griffin et al., 2011).”
• Human‐mediated introductions of Australian acacias – a global experiment in biogeography (2011, background): “A few species have been very widely planted in massive numbers in commercial plantations (Griffin et al., 2011).”
• Impacts of invasive Australian acacias: implications for management and restoration (2011, background): “For example, the benefits from the commercial use of A. mearnsii in South Africa for wood chips and tanbark (Griffin et al., 2011) accrue to a relatively small group, while the costs of invasions are borne by a much wider group (De Wit et al., 2001; Van Wilgen et al., 2011).”
• The evolution and phylogenetic placement of invasive Australian Acacia species (2011, background): “The widespread use of Mimosoid legumes as forage species and in various types of forestry and agroforestry programmes worldwide has radically enhanced their invasiveness potential (Griffin et al., 2011; Richardson et al., 2011).”
• Risk assessment, eradication, and biological control: global efforts to limit Australian acacia invasions (2011, background): “1a, Griffin et al., 2011).”
