Uncovering the genomic basis of repeated adaption can provide important insights into the
constraints and biases that limit the diversity of genetic responses. Demographic processes …

Invasive plants are highly successful because they can quickly adapt to selection pressures
imposed by both biotic and abiotic stressors. Since selection pressures may vary across …

Invasive species are common around the world, but we still do not know which traits are
most important for successfully establishing in new environments. Different stages of the …

Following the introduction of the 'Boolarra'strain to Australia in the mid 1960's, Common carp
(Cyprinus carpio) rapidly spread in waterways across the Murray–Darling Basin (MDB) in …

Unravelling the history of range shifts is key for understanding past, current and future
species distributions. Anthropogenic transport of species alters natural dispersal patterns …

Biological invasions in remote areas that experience low human activity provide unique
opportunities to elucidate processes responsible for invasion success. Here we study the …

Genetic diversity and competitive ability, though extensively studied in the context of
biological invasions, are still poorly understood in their relative importance, especially when …

Abstract Background The genus Opuntia contains a handful of widespread invasive species,
posing significant ecological threats worldwide. In China, the first records of two populations …

Historical herbarium collections and genetic analyses indicate that slender false brome
(Brachypodium sylvaticum) was first introduced in test gardens in Oregon in the early 1900 s …

The taxonomy and systematics of species in the genus Prosopis are notoriously problematic.
Uncertain biogeography of some species in the genus, coupled with high intraspecific …
