Plant invasions, a byproduct of globalization, are increasing worldwide. Because of their
ecological and economic impacts, considerable efforts have been made to understand and …

Although there is abundant evidence that plant phenology is shifting with climatic warming,
the magnitude and direction of these shifts can depend on the environmental context, plant …

With the advent of the Anthropocene, biological invasions have reached an unprecedented
level, and the number of species introductions is still increasing in an ever‐changing world …

Phenology is a harbinger of climate change, with many species advancing flowering in
response to rising temperatures. However, there is tremendous variation among species in …

The number of times an organism reproduces (ie, its mode of parity) is a fundamental life‐
history character, and evolutionary and ecological models that compare the relative …

Clarifying the effects of invasive plant species (IPS) on the taxonomic and functional diversity
of native communities provides insight into the mechanisms underlying successful plant …

Invasive pant species (invaders hereafter) have notable effects on the structure and
functions of native ecosystems. Plant functional diversity plays a more important role than …

Phenotypic plasticity is thought to be beneficial for species when introduced to a new range,
increasing their proficiency in colonising and expanding into new environments. It has been …

Evolutionary processes greatly impact the outcomes of biological invasions. An extensive
body of research suggests that invasive populations often undergo phenotypic and …

Aims The study of the adaptive potential of the germination patterns of invading species
enables us to identify some traits linked with their capacity to colonize new sites, and to gain …
