When a plant invader meets its old enemy abroad: what can be learnt from accidental introductions of biological control agents
Accidental introductions of biological weed control (BWC) agents (i) offer opportunities to
assess host use of agents with a potentially broader fundamental host‐range than those …

Climate warming can reduce biocontrol efficacy and promote plant invasion due to both genetic and transient metabolomic changes
Climate change may affect plant–herbivore interactions and their associated ecosystem
functions. In an experimental evolution approach, we subjected replicated populations of the …

Rapid genomic and phenotypic change in response to climate warming in a widespread plant invader
Predicting plant distributions under climate change is constrained by our limited
understanding of potential rapid adaptive evolution. In an experimental evolution study with …

Rapid evolution of invasive traits facilitates the invasion of common ragweed, Ambrosia artemisiifolia
Invasive alien plants, together with organisms introduced for biological control, are ideal
study systems with which to address questions of whether, and how fast, organisms adapt to …

The climate niche is stable and the distribution area of Ageratina adenophora is predicted to expand in China
Aim: Understanding the spatiotemporal climate niche dynamics of invasive species not only
helps us recognize the trend of change in their niche, but also enables a more accurate …

Predicting impact of a biocontrol agent: integrating distribution modeling with climate‐dependent vital rates
Species distribution models can predict the suitable climatic range of a potential biological
control agent (BCA), but they provide little information on the BCA's potential impact. To …

Cross-fertilizing weed science and plant invasion science to improve efficient management: a European challenge
Both weed science and plant invasion science deal with noxious plants. Yet, they have
historically developed as two distinct research areas in Europe, with different target species …
