A classification system for predicting invasiveness using climatic niche traits and global distribution models: application to alien plant species in Chile
(Pensoft, 2020)
Functional traits that predict plant invasiveness are a central issue in invasion ecology. However, in many cases they are difficult to determine, especially for a large set of species. Climatic niche traits can overcome ...
Niche conservatism in a plant with long invasion history: the case of the Peruvian peppertree (Schinus molle, Anacardiaceae) in Mexico
(Royal Botanical Society of Belgium, 2020)
Background and aim - Invasive plants should only colonize habitats meeting the environmental conditions included in their native niches. However, if they invade habitats with novel environmental conditions, this can induce ...
Comments about some species abundance patterns: classic, neutral, and niche partitioning models
(Int Inst Ecology, 2008-11-01)
The literature on species abundance models is extensive and a great deal of new and important contributions have been published in the last three decades. Broadly speaking, one can recognize five families of species abundance ...

The dimensionality of individual niche variation
(2018-03-01)
The inherently multidimensional nature of the niche has not yet been integrated into the investigation of individual niche specialization within populations. We propose a framework for modeling the between- and within-individual ...
Staying ahead of invaders: using species distribution modeling to predict alien species’ potential niche shifts
(Inter-Research, 2019-03)
Early detection and rapid response are essential to prevent invasive species from thriving in marine environments following their introduction. Species distribution models (SDMs) are widely used to predict the potential ...

Distribution of the invasive plant Taraxacum officinale at mediterranean altitudinal gradients: using niche models to infer whether cushion plants expand altitudinal range of this species
(2014)
Climatic conditions at higher altitudes pose a barrier to exotic species establishment due to an
increase of the severity of climatic conditions, reducing plant survival and/or reproduction.
However, processes that occur ...
Changing Only Slowly: The Role of Phylogenetic Niche Conservatism in Caviidae (Rodentia) Speciation
(Springer, 2020-04)
The dynamics of species diversification have attracted significant scientific attention in recent decades. Many lineages tend tomaintain their niche characteristics over evolutionary time, a phenomenon known as phylogenetic ...
Improved Predictions of the Geographic Distribution of Invasive Plants Using Climatic Niche Models
(Public Library Science, 2016)
Climatic niche models for invasive plants are usually constructed with occurrence records taken from literature and collections. Because these data neither discriminate among life-cycle stages of plants (adult or juvenile) ...
