From biological control to invasion: the ladybird Harmonia axyridis as a model species (2008, background): “The rapid increase in introduced exotic species worldwide and the potential of these species to become invasive have now been widely recognised to have ecological and evolutionary consequences ( Olden and Poff 2004; Olden et al. 2006).”
Do non‐native species invasions lead to biotic homogenization at small scales? The similarity and functional diversity of habitats compared for alien and native components of Mediterranean floras (2008, background): “Within species, genetic diversity is now widely considered to be important (Myers & Knoll, 2001; Olden & Poff, 2004), whereas across species, there is increasing recognition that the number and diversity of ecological interactions may be critical to the productivity and adaptability of ecosystems…”
On defining and quantifying biotic homogenization (2006, background): “In fact, homogenization (or even differentiation) can arise when species invasions occur without commensurate loss of species, or conversely where only species extinctions occur (Rahel, 2000; Olden & Poff, 2004b).”
Long-term trends of native and non-native fish faunas in the American Southwest (2005, background): “Distributions of native and non–native fishes have changed dramatically over the past century (Courtenay et al., 1984; Moyle, 1986; Gido & Brown, 1999), resulting in the biotic homogenization of fish faunas throughout North America (Rahel, 2000; Olden & Poff, 2004; Taylor, 2004).”
Island biogeography for an urbanizing world: how extinction and colonization may determine biological diversity in human-dominated landscapes (2005, background): “In a human-dominated world, diversity still emerges as the balance between extinction and colonization, but the amount, identity, and actions of invading species take on greater prominence (Olden and Poff, 2003, 2004).”
Impact of fish introduction on planktonic food webs in lakes of the Patagonian Plateau (2006, background): “Biotic exchange with the introduction of non-indigenous species has been dramatically accelerated by humans in historical times being an important mechanism of biotic homogenization (Olden and Poff, 2004).”
Functional homogenization exceeds taxonomic homogenization among European fish assemblages (2014, background): “…10.1111/geb.12226 1450 © 2014 John Wiley & Sons Ltd http://wileyonlinelibrary.com/journal/geb and introduction processes have acted together to modify the composition and richness of local assemblages, as well as the dissimilarity between them (Olden & Poff, 2004; Villéger & Brosse, 2012).”
Forecasting faunal and floral homogenization associated with human population geography in North America (2006, methodology): “For fishes we selected scenario IE3 (see Olden and Poff, 2004), for birds and reptiles/amphibians we selected IE4 (see Blair, 2004 for birds) and for plants and mammals we averaged the predictions from scenarios IE3 and IE4 given our uncertainty in the relative roles of these two mechanisms for…”
Fifty years of change in northern upland forest understories: Identity and traits of “winner” and “loser” plant species (2006, background): “Homogenization can arise from species invasion, species extinction, or both and can either increase or decrease species richness (Rahel, 2000; Olden and Poff, 2004).”
Species invasions and the changing biogeography of Australian freshwater fishes (2007, background): “…have demonstrated the remarkable complexity of the biotic homogenization process, and the absolute importance of the consideration of scale, in interpreting the mechanisms and drivers of changes in betadiversity with time (Olden & Poff, 2003, 2004; Cassey et al., 2006; Marchetti et al., 2006).”
Null model of biotic homogenization: a test with the European freshwater fish fauna (2007, methodology): “Among them, taxonomic homogenization (TH) has been empirically studied for various taxonomic groups (reviewed by Olden, 2006), and has been explicitly formalized by Olden & Poff (2003, 2004) into a mechanistic model incorporating scenarios of invasion and extinction.”
Worldwide freshwater fish homogenization is driven by a few widespread non-native species (2016, background): “Such a situation is one of the major drivers of homogenization worldwide (Olden and Poff 2004; Toussaint et al. 2014).”
Urbanization and homogenization – Comparing the floras of urban and rural areas in Germany (2006, background): “The differentiation of post-1500 alien assemblages could be explained by invasion of different alien species within different urban regions ( Olden and Poff, 2004a ).”
