There is growing realisation that integrating genetics and ecology is critical in the context of
biological invasions, since the two are explicitly linked. So far, the focus of ecological …

Biological invasions, the establishment and spread of non‐native species in new regions,
can have extensive economic and environmental consequences. Increased global …

The recent discovery of fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda, JE Smith) in Africa presents a
significant threat to that continent's food security. The species exhibits several traits in the …

Understanding the evolutionary histories of invasive species is critical to adopt appropriate
management strategies, but this process can be exceedingly complex to unravel. As …

While ecological interactions have been identified as determinant for biological control
efficiency, the role of evolution remains largely underestimated in biological control …

Understanding the mechanisms underlying biological invasions and rapid adaptation to
global change remains a fundamental challenge, particularly in small populations lacking in …

Human activities are accelerating rates of biological invasions and climate-driven range
expansions globally, yet we understand little of how genomic processes facilitate the …

Over the past 30 yr, multiple species of predatory Coccinellidae, prominently Coccinella
septempunctata L. and Harmonia axyridis (Pallas)(Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) have spread …

International trade of species facilitates the establishment of nonnative organisms.
Highlighting areas potentially suitable for invasive species (risk areas) allows for effective …

The introduction of biological control agents (BCAs) creates the potential for adaptive
evolution in translocated organisms. BCAs are confronted with new environments that can …
