The results demonstrate that the introduction of the Australian bud-galling wasp effectively suppresses the reproductive potential of A. longifolia and slows the accumulation of its persistent seed bank, and highlight the importance of adopting an integrated management strategy – combining biocontrol with conventional...

Acacia
species are widespread invasive plants in Mediterranean ecosystems, including central Portugal, where they promote significant negative impacts across inland areas such as mountain regions, watercourses, and roadsides, incurring substantial management costs. These species exhibit strong regeneration strategie...

Rapid adaptive evolution can increase the competitive ability of invasive species in their non-native ranges. However, whether this increase is a general response and what drives it remain uncertain because the evidence is largely based on studies with limited sampling, inadequate consideration of population co-ancestr...

In Mediterranean ecosystems, invasive woody species plants, such as
Acacia
and
Hakea,
threaten biodiversity, increase fire risk and raise forest management costs. Their fire-adapted traits and persistent seed banks make them difficult to control using conventional methods alone. Targeted goat browsing is a potent...
