Invasive species are predicted to suffer from reductions in genetic diversity during founding
events, reducing adaptive potential. Integrating evidence from two literature reviews and two …

Invasive freshwater fish represent a major threat to biodiversity. Here, we first demonstrate
the dramatic, human-mediated range expansion of the Trinidadian guppy (Poecilia …

Abstract In South America, there is a lack of data concerning the occurrence and levels of
pharmaceuticals in main rivers as well as their negative effects on the biota. Here we report …

The pace-of-life syndrome (POLS) hypothesis predicts variation in behaviour and physiology
among individuals to be associated with variation in life history. Thus, individuals on the …

Abstract The Eurasian round goby Neogobius melanostomus (Apollonia melanostoma)
invaded the North American Great Lakes in 1990 through ballast water, spread rapidly, and …

We provide mitochondrial sequence variation of the invasive fish Gambusia holbrooki from
24 European populations, from Portugal to Greece. Phylogeographic structure in Europe …

The oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis, expanded throughout mainland China in the last
century to become one of the most serious pests in the area, yet information on this process …

During the last 10 years, an increasing number of studies have explored evolutionary
aspects of biological invasions. It is becoming increasingly clear that evolutionary processes …

Ecosystems are currently changing at unprecedented rates due to anthropogenic influences.
Application of appropriate management regimes and mitigation measures requires …

The introduction and spread of alien (ie, non-native) species is regarded by many as a major
threat to global biodiversity and hence ecological sustainability (Vitousek et al. 1997; Kolar …
