Aim It has been proposed that co‐invasion with ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungi is a common
mechanism by which non‐indigenous trees overcome symbiont limitation, yet virtually all …

Biological invasions are a rapidly increasing driver of global change, yet fundamental gaps
remain in our understanding of the factors determining the success or extent of invasions …

The occurrence and host plant associations of ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi in New Zealand
are reviewed. Seventy‐six genera of fungi thought to be ECM are recorded as associated …

Transportation of forestry materials results in unintended co‐introduction of nonnative
species that may cause enormous ecological or economic damage. While the invasion …

The identity and relevance of the ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal partners of Eucalyptus
globulus was investigated in NW Spain, to detect which symbionts mainly support its …

In the last two centuries, several species of Australian eucalypts (eg Eucalyptus
camaldulensis and E.␣ globulus) were introduced into the Iberian Peninsula for the …

The absence of co‐evolved mutualists of plants invading a novel habitat is the logical
corollary of the more widely recognized 'enemy escape'. To avoid or overcome the loss of …

The ectomycorrhizal Amanita muscaria and the wood-rotting Favolaschia calocera are both
known to have been introduced to New Zealand in historically recent times. Both species are …

Invasive plants often pose serious threats to the natural biodiversity of invaded ecosystems
and in this way are likely to alter ecosystem services. This applies to arbuscular mycorrhizal …

Positive interactions between non-native species can accelerate their invasion rate and
exacerbate their impacts. This has been shown for non-native mammals that disperse …
