The tolerance of island plant–pollinator networks to alien plants (2011, background): “Pollination interactions play a vital role in the reproduction of most plant species, and empirical studies have shown that alien plant species alter pollination of neighbouring, mostly native, plants through shared pollinators (reviewed in Traveset & Richardson 2006; Bjerknes et al. 2007).”
Combined effects of Impatiens glandulifera invasion and landscape structure on native plant pollination (2010, background): “In this sense, an alien plant species could alter community plant–pollinator interactions (Traveset & Richardson 2006; Bjerknes et al. 2007), but there are too few empirical studies to enable us to draw general patterns.”
Impact of landscape alteration and invasions on pollinators: a meta‐analysis (2012, background): “2009) through repeated visits by native pollinators and large effects are expected to occur on native plants rather than on native pollinators (Bjerknes et al. 2007).”
Conservation of species interaction networks (2010, background): “Super-generalist invaders become central nodes (most connected species) in the core of the nested matrix and may increase the overall value of nestedness of the network (Aizen et al., 2008; Bartomeus et al., 2008; Bjerknes et al., 2007).”
Alien dandelion reduces the seed-set of a native congener through frequency-dependent and one-sided effects (2009, background): “Recent empirical studies examined interactions during pollination as the source of adverse effects imposed by alien on native plant species (reviewed in Bjerknes et al. 2007 ); some studies have found a significantly negative effect of aliens (Grabas and Laverty 1999; Brown et al. 2002; Chittka and”
Interspecific Pollen Transfer: Magnitude, Prevalence and Consequences for Plant Fitness (2008, background): “Alien flowering plants might disrupt the pollination of natives (reviewed in Traveset and Richardson, 2006, and Bjerknes et al., 2007), and transgenes might be transferred from genetically modified crops to wild relatives (reviewed in Snow et al., 2005).”
The presence of a showy invasive plant disrupts pollinator service and reproductive output in native alpine species only at high densities (2008, unknown): “Nonetheless, the dependency of these alien impacts on both temporal and spatial observation scales is another issue that must be addressed in future studies (Bjerknes et al. 2007).”
Alien pollen grains interfere with the reproductive success of native congener (2010, background): “For most flowering plants, sufficient pollen availability through animal pollinators is an essential process in their reproductive success (Stanton et al. 1986; Burd 1994; Corbet 1998; Ashman et al. 2004; Bell et al. 2005 ).”
Home site advantage in two long‐lived arctic plant species: results from two 30‐year reciprocal transplant studies (2012, background): “2009) through repeated visits by native pollinators and large effects are expected to occur on native plants rather than on native pollinators (Bjerknes et al. 2007).”
Impact threshold for an alien plant invader, Lantana camara L., on native plant communities (2009, background): “, 2000), have been shown to inhibit the recruitment of resident native species by preventing seedling establishment and growth, and modifying plant-pollinator interactions (Vranjic et al., 2000; Gorchov and Trisel, 2003; Yurkonis et al., 2005; Bjerknes et al., 2007); displace resident species throug”
Wild pollinator communities are negatively affected by invasion of alien goldenrods in grassland landscapes (2009, background): “Although most invader plants are not successful in colonising new areas, some are very competitive and able to spread rapidly, affecting interactions between wild pollinators (hereafter pollinators) and native plants (Bjerknes et al., 2007).”
Diversity declines in Microstegium vimineum (Japanese stiltgrass) patches (2009, background): “Accordingly, it is possible that the impact of invasion varies not just spatially, but also temporally (Clarke et al., 2005; Bjerknes et al., 2007).”
Shading by invasive shrub reduces seed production and pollinator services in a native herb (2010, background): “Overall, empirical support for competition and neutral effects of invasive plants on pollination services to natives outweighs support for facilitative effects (Bjerknes et al. 2007; Goodell 2008; Morales and Traveset 2009).”
The outcome of shared pollination services is affected by the density and spatial pattern of an attractive neighbour (2014, background): “Journal of Ecology © 2014 British Ecological Society, Journal of Ecology, 102, 953–962 visitation rate to patches in which they are present (e.g. Bjerknes et al. 2007).”
Solidago canadensis impacts on native plant and pollinator communities in different-aged old fields (2015, background): “However, in some cases, both at local and landscape scales, these often mass-flowering invasives may facilitate native plant pollination by increasing pollinator densities (Bjerknes et al. 2007).”
