The changing role of ornamental horticulture in alien plant invasions
The number of alien plants escaping from cultivation into native ecosystems is increasing
steadily. We provide an overview of the historical, contemporary and potential future roles of …

Projecting the continental accumulation of alien species through to 2050
Biological invasions have steadily increased over recent centuries. However, we still lack a
clear expectation about future trends in alien species numbers. In particular, we do not know …

Evolutionary imbalance, climate and human history jointly shape the global biogeography of alien plants
Human activities are causing global biotic redistribution, translocating species and providing
them with opportunities to establish populations beyond their native ranges. Species …

Adjusting the lens of invasion biology to focus on the impacts of climate-driven range shifts
As Earth's climate rapidly changes, species range shifts are considered key to species
persistence. However, some range-shifting species will alter community structure and …

A synthesis of biological invasion hypotheses associated with the introduction–naturalisation–invasion continuum
With the advent of the Anthropocene, biological invasions have reached an unprecedented
level, and the number of species introductions is still increasing in an ever‐changing world …

The community ecology of invasive species: where are we and what's next?
Alien species are continually introduced in most regions of the world, but not all survive and
coexist with the resident native species. Approaches analyzing the functional (or …

Economic use of plants is key to their naturalization success
Humans cultivate thousands of economic plants (ie plants with economic value) outside their
native ranges. To analyze how this contributes to naturalization success, we combine global …

The global distribution of bamboos: assessing correlates of introduction and invasion
There is a long history of species being moved around the world by humans. These
introduced species can provide substantial benefits, but they can also have undesirable …
