Lessons learned from a widespread invader | Research summary
This paper summarizes current research and knowledge about one of the top invasive species in Europe to help inform management of other invasive species that cover broad ranges and span diverse habitat types.
Hydrilla Hazard | Research Summary
After eluding scientists for decades, the causative agent of a deadly wildlife disease (vacuolar myelinopathy) is uncovered in a recent study, and has been linked to the colonization of invasive Hydrilla.
Eradicating Eradication | Research Summary
Functional eradication, a new framework for invasive species control, focuses on suppressing invasive species below levels that have significant negative impacts on conservation targets.
