The juxtaposition of plant‐species invasions with latitudinal gradients in herbivore pressure
is an important yet mostly unexplored issue in invasion biology. Latitudinal clines in defense …

On the North shore of Lake Erie, Long Point provides habitat to many thousands of breeding
and migrating birds, including marsh-nesting species that are in decline across the Great …

Aim Recent research has highlighted that the relationship between species interactions and
latitude can differ between native and invasive plant taxa, generating biogeographical …

Herbivores play a critical role in plant invasions either by facilitating or inhibiting species
establishment and spread. However, relatively few studies with invasive plant species have …

Abstract Development of a biological control program for invasive Phagmites australis
australis in North America required 20 years of careful research, and consideration of …

The common reed, genus Phragmites (Poaceae), is possibly the most widely distributed and
well-studied plant in the world. It is found throughout temperate parts of the world and, while …

Classical biocontrol constitutes the importation of natural enemies from a native range to
control a non-native pest. This is challenging when the target organism is phylogenetically …

Cryptic invasions can be defined as 'the occurrence of an invasive species or genotype that
was not previously recognised as alien in origin or not distinguished from other aliens'. Such …

The invasion of European Phragmites australis in North America has altered resident
species plant assemblages in wetlands and created large monotypic patches. As a …

European common reed, Phragmites australis subsp. australis, is a highly invasive plant in
Canada that outcompetes native plant species, reduces overall biodiversity, and alters …
