Naturalised plants transform the composition and function of the New Zealand flora

AJ Brandt, PJ Bellingham, RP Duncan… - Biological …, 2021 - Springer
Abstract The New Zealand flora has a high proportion of endemic species but has been
invaded by almost the same number of non-native plant species. To support management of …

Different traits determine introduction, naturalization and invasion success in woody plants: Proteaceae as a test case

D Moodley, S Geerts, DM Richardson, JRU Wilson - Plos one, 2013 - journals.plos.org
