How strong is enemy release? A systematic compilation across taxa and approaches
The enemy release hypothesis posits that introduced species escape some of their predators, pathogens, and parasites when they move to a new range. We used a systematic review to compile data from 69...
New year new paper!
How strong is enemy release? A systematic compilation across taxa and approaches
doi.org/10.1002/ecy....
We found that introduced plants and animals experience less enemy diversity and damage than native counterparts, but do not gain fitness benefits as a result.

Short-day plants and day-neutral plants are advancing their flowering times with climate change, while long-day plants are lagging behind. This delay could put long-day species at a competitive disadvantage as their flowering times fail to keep up with changes in the environment, potentially impacting their interactions with pollinators and competitors.

Great seeing two major ecology conferences on the hashtags right now #BES2024 #ESAus2024.
Reminder that many people can't be present at their relevant professional conferences for lots of reasons (pandemic, climate, family, chronic illness, finances etc). Grateful for social media! #AcademicSky

Scientific presentation showing differences between populations of capeweed.
Is introduced capeweed evolving drought tolerance? Exciting insights from Romane Normand at the 'trends in invasion ecology and biosecurity measures' symposium at #ESAus2024

Amazing work by @elliotgould.bsky.social at #ESAus2024 on their truly massive many-analyst study in ecology! 176 analyst teams studied 2 datasets and got different answers - interestingly, variation not explained by the quality of analysis.
