The mathematical modeling and analysis of nonlocal ecological invasions and savanna population dynamics
… solutions which can be easily adapted and inform ecological work done in the field. Savanna is defined by the coexistence of trees and grass in seasonally dry areas of the tropics and sub-tropics, but there is no consensus as to why savanna occurs as a stable state between tropical grassland and …

Ecology and niche characterization of the invasive ornamental grass Miscanthus sinensis
… it would be prudent to evaluate the potential ecological benefits and consequences of widespread cultivation of potentially invasive species. Miscanthus sinensis and its sterile daughter species, Miscanthus × giganteus, are two prominent bioenergy feedstock candidates due to their low input …

THE ROLE OF MICROBIAL ENDOSYMBIONTS IN SORGHUM HALEPENSE INVASIONS: EVIDENCE OF A NEW INVASION STRATEGY, MICROBIALLY ENHANCED COMPETITIVE ABILITY (MECA)
… significantly contribute to <i>S. halepense</i> invasions by enhancing the plant traits of biomass, growth rate, competitive effects, and herbivore-defense. This works shows that these invasive plant traits are microbially-mediated. This novel invasion strategy is referred to as Microbially …
