Abstract Expansion of global trade and acceleration climate change dramatically promote plant invasions. As a result, large number habitats harbor multiple invasive species. However, patterns interactions the drivers mediating their remain unclear. In this greenhouse, potted study, we tested impacts 18 species on growth target invader Erigeron canadensis which is dominant in central China. Neighboring belong to three functional groups (grass, forb legume) have different levels relatedness E. canadensis. Growth canadensis’ strongly depended identity neighboring invaders. Some suppressed canadensis, others had no effect, while some promoted Through analyses phylogenetic similarities between invaders, showed that two factors probably play roles determining relative responses Generally, responded negatively grasses forbs, it positively legumes. Furthermore, negative forbs increased with increasing distance neighbors contrast, positive legumes did not depend from Our results suggest successful invasion depends co-occurring Interactions other should help managers select management priorities.

Alien species form one of the main threats to global biodiversity. Although Life Cycle Assessment attempts holistically assess environmental impacts products and services across value chains, ecological introduction alien are so far not assessed in Impact Assessment. Here, we developed country-to-country-specific characterization factors, expressed as time-integrated potentially disappeared fraction (PDF; regional global) native terrestrial due introductions per unit goods transported [kg] between two countries. The factors were generated by analyzing data on first records species, distributions, their threat status, well bilateral trade partnerships from 1870–2019. resulting vary over several orders magnitude, indicating that impact greatly varies transportation route trading partner. We showcase applicability relevance for transporting 1 metric ton freight France China, South Africa, Madagascar. results suggest can be more damaging biodiversity climate change during international transport commodities.

Biological approaches via biomolecular extracts of bacteria, fungi, or plants have recently been introduced as an alternative approach to synthesizing less nontoxic nanomaterials, compared conventional physical and chemical approaches. Among these biological methods, plant-mediated (phytosynthesis) are reported be highly beneficial for large-scale, nanomaterial synthesis. However, synthesis nanomaterials using native plant extract can lead bioprospecting issues deforestation challenges. On the other hand, non-native invasive non-indigenous a particular geographic location that grow spread rapidly, ultimately disrupting local endogenous communities ecosystems. Thus, controlling eradicating before they damage ecosystem is necessary. Even though mechanical, chemical, available control plants, all methods possess certain limitations, such environmental toxicity, disturbance in nutrient cycle, loss genetic integrity. Therefore, were proposed novel sustainable source phytochemicals preparing green chemistry, mainly metallic nanoparticles, native, agriculture-based, medicinal plants. This work aims cover literature gap on bionanomaterial with overview bibliography analysis data mining advanced visualization tools. In addition, potential sustainable, chemistry-based preparation maintaining ecological balance, mechanism formation phytochemicals, their possible applications promote also discussed. The revealed only average 4 articles published last 10 years (2013-2023) non-native/invasive synthesis, which shows significance this article.

Altogether, 151 species registered in the country, nearly 40% became naturalised. total number plant proportion aliens are relatively low due to harsh climatic conditions (high aridity continentality) predominantly high elevations. highest originated from Mediterranean, can be explained by some common features between this area Central Asia, but half ten most harmful Americas. intensity invasions was greatest during period Russian Empire USSR, rapid accumulation continues independent Kyrgyzstan. uneven distribution different elevations across its regions, as well concentration agricultural activities human population along warm lowland depressions.

Abstract Aim Biodiversity hotspots are widely used as conservation priorities to preserve the tree of life. However, many practices identify biodiversity without considering phylogenetic diversity (PD), which reflects total evolutionary history and feature a region. Moreover, planning rarely distinguishes between neo‐ palaeo‐biodiversity despite their differences. Here, we (a) estimated large‐scale patterns in PD woody plants, (b) identified (c) demonstrated implication planning, with special focus on Hengduan Mountains southern China. Location Methods Distributions 11,405 species from Atlas Woody Plants China were updated transformed into grid 50 × km 2 . By integrating distribution maps genus‐level phylogeny angiosperms, Faith's each cell evaluated contribution relatedness at given levels (i.e. standardized PD, sPD) using regressions three null models. Then, areas significantly lower or higher sPD than expected palaeo‐hotspots coverage protected these regions. Results Species decreased towards north. Southern had high diversity, sPD, while but low sPD. The was less half that entire Main conclusions Our results neo‐hotspot palaeo‐hotspot, highlighting importance for conservation.

Current control methods for invasive alien plants (IAPs) have acceptable short-term outcomes but proven to be unfeasible or unaffordable in the long-term large invaded areas. For these reasons, there is an urgent need develop sustainable approaches restrict spread of aggressive IAPs. The use waste derived from IAP actions could contribute motivating management and preservation local biodiversity while promoting some economic returns stakeholders. However, this strategy may raise concerns that should carefully addressed before its implementation. In article, we summarize most common IAPs, explaining their viability limitations. We also compile potential applications residues discuss risks opportunities associated with strategy.
