Predators and parasitoids of the harlequin ladybird, Harmonia axyridis, in its native range and invaded areas
(Springer, 2018)
The harlequin ladybird Harmonia axyridis (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) has rapidly spread in several continents over the past 30 years and is considered an invasive alien species. The success of H. axyridis as an invader is ...
Determining the origin of invasions and demonstrating a lack of enemy release from microsporidian pathogens in common wasps (Vespula vulgaris)
(Wiley, 2014-06)
Aim: Understanding the role of enemy release in biological invasions requires an assessment of the invader's home range, the number of invasion events and enemy prevalence. The common wasp (Vespula vulgaris) is a widespread ...
Does Plant Origin Influence the Fitness Impact of Flower Damage? A Meta-Analysis
(Public Library Science, 2016)
Herbivory has been long considered an important component of plant-animal interactions that influences the success of invasive species in novel habitats. One of the most important hypotheses linking herbivory and invasion ...
No evidence of enemy release in pathogen and microbial communities of comnon wasps [Vespula vulgaris] in their native and introduced range
(2015-03-23)
When invasive species move to new environments they typically experience population bottlenecks that limit the probability that pathogens and parasites are also moved. The invasive species may thus be released from biotic ...
Entomopathogenic fungi and their potential for the management of Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) in the Americas
(Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2018)
The effect of herbivory on seedling survival of the invasive exotic species Pinus radiata and Eucalyptus globulus in a Mediterranean ecosystem of Central Chile
(ELSEVIER, 2008-10-15)
Herbivory may be an important factor affecting seedling survival of exotic species invading new habitats. We evaluated the effect of vertebrate herbivory on the seedling survival of two widely planted and invasive tree ...
