Computer simulations are excellent tools for understanding the evolutionary and genetic
consequences of complex processes whose interactions cannot be analytically predicted …

Biological invasions are a major threat to biodiversity, agriculture, and human health.
Invasive populations can be the source of additional new introductions, leading to a self …

The assessment of species distribution is a first critical phase of biodiversity studies and is
necessary to many disciplines such as biogeography, conservation biology and ecology …

The recognition that invasive alien species (IAS) are among the greatest threats to
biodiversity has stimulated a growing interest in their impacts on native amphibians. Here …

The study and management of emerging infectious diseases (EIDs) and of biological
invasions both address the ecology of human-associated biological phenomena in a rapidly …

Abstract The European green crab Carcinus maenas is one of the world's most successful
aquatic invaders, having established populations on every continent with temperate shores …

Soaring throughput, plummeting costs, and increased sensitivity for assaying degraded or
low-concentration DNA are driving a revolution in the way that we monitor biodiversity …

Biological invasions drive environmental change, potentially threatening native biodiversity,
human health, and global economies. Population genomics is an increasingly popular tool …

Environmental DNA (eDNA) comprises DNA fragments that have been shed into the
environment by organisms, and which can be extracted from environmental samples such …

Aim Understanding the factors determining the transition from introduction of aliens to the
establishment of invasive populations is a critical issue of the study of biological invasions …
