Global Naturalized Alien Flora (GloNAF). Open access data to support research on understanding global plant invasions.
<p>This dataset is a snapshot of the Global Naturalized Alien Flora (GloNAF) database, version 2.02. GloNAF is a continuously updated, curated compilation of alien naturalized vascular plant inventories for geographic regions from around the world. The dataset has 16,429 unique taxa reported as naturalized or invasive and covers 1,343 regions (including 427 islands) from 336 data sources. For each region, the status (invasive, naturalized) is provided as listed in the original source. We provide the scientific names included with the original data source, and the matching accepted name or synonym of the taxon as given in the World Checklist of Vascular Plants (WCVP) Version 12. In addition, we provide an ESRI shapefile of polygons for each region. We also provide several variables that can be used to filter the data according to quality and completeness of alien taxon lists, which vary among the combinations of regions and data sources.</p> <p>The 'glonaf_flora2.csv' file lists the IDs ('taxon_wcvp_id') of all naturalized taxa contained in GloNAF and the regions they occur in. The 'glonaf_taxon_wcvp.csv' lists the original taxon names provided in the source data along with the corresponding accepted taxon name from the WCVP (version 12) for all alien taxa in GloNAF, regardless of their naturalization status. To link taxon names with naturalization records, join the 'id' column of the 'glonaf_taxon_wcvp.csv' file to the 'taxon_wcvp_id' column in 'glonaf_flora2.csv' . Additional information regarding the original source of the data ('glonaf_reference.csv'), specific attributes of the taxon lists ('glonaf_list.csv') and the region ('glonaf_region.csv') can also be joined similarly to 'glonaf_flora2.csv '. </p> <p> </p>
Contrasting plant adaptation strategies to latitude in the native and invasive range of Spartina alterniflora: geographic survey (2014) and Common garden (2015-2017)
We examined trait differences and evolution across geographic clines among continents of the intertidal grass Spartina alterniflora within its invasive and native ranges. Between September and November 2014, we sampled vegetative and reproductive traits in the field at 20 sites over 20° latitude in China (invasive range) and 28 sites over 17° latitude in the US (native range). We grew both Chinese and US plants in a greenhouse common garden for three years (2015 - 2017) to determine if differences in performance of S. alterniflora between the introduced and native ranges were due to genetic differences or differences in abiotic conditions.
Potential effects of invasive plants on mosquito life-history traits.

Projected distribution of invasive plant species in the tropical Andes under climate change
<p>Distribution maps of 11 invasive species now and in the future (2040-70). The projections were the result of the assembly of three algorithms: Adaptive Boosting (AdaBoost), Boosted Regression Trees (BRT), and Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost). Future projections were made for three global circulation models and three climate change scenarios, each with low (SSP126), medium (SSP370), and high (SSP585) levels of carbon emission.</p> <p>Habitat suitability and presence/absence maps are also included. The threshold for establishing a species as present was determined to be the value that maximized the TSS. </p> <p>For more information, see the article accompanying the dataset by González-Trujillo et al.

Emerging fungal pathogen of an invasive grass: Implications for competition with native plant species
This data package includes data and code from an experiment testing the effects of a leaf spot fungal infection and competition from the invasive (to the U.S.) grass Microstegium vimineum on the performance of three native grass species: Dichanthelium clandestinum, Elymus virginicus, and Eragrostis spectabilis. The experiment was performed between June and September of 2019 in a greenhouse on the University of Florida campus in Gainesville, FL, USA. The leaf spot infection is caused by the fungal pathogen Bipolaris gigantea, which has recently emerged on populations of M. vimineum in the U.S. We tested the hypothesis that infection of B. gigantea would both directly and indirectly affect the native grass species by measuring the change in biomass of each species with and without pathogen inoculation (direct effects) and by measuring the effect of pathogen inoculation on M. vimineum competition through changes in native grass biomass across a density gradient of M. vimneum (indirect effects). The code includes statistical analyses and figures. The code was run using R (version 4.0.1).

This dataset contains invasive plant and stand level data for study sites along the Dalton and Parks highways in interior Alaska in the summer of 2012. Study sites were situated in burned and mature black spruce forests to compare invasive plant colonization patterns. Invasive plant density estimates along the road adjacent to each site are included, as well as invasive plant density within study sites. Other data includes ground cover estimates for dominant ground cover types, estimates of seedling abundance for dominant tree species, soil paramters (mineral soil pH and mineral soil moisture, residual organic layer/ organic layer depths, and active layer depths).
The effects of agricultural land-use history on non-native plant invasion in Bent Creek Experimental Forest in 2006
The researchers considered the effects of agricultural land-use legacies on the distribution of non-native invasive plants a century after abandonment in a watershed in western North Carolina, USA. The study was conducted at the Bent Creek Experimental Forest (BCEF) 15 km southwest of Asheville, North Carolina, USA, in the Pisgah National Forest. Forest sites that were previously in cultivation and abandoned ca. 1905 were compared with nearby reference sites that were never cultivated. The most common invasive plants were Celastrus orbiculatus Thunb., Microstegium vimineum Trin., and Lonicera japonica Thunb. (Kuhman, Pearson, and Turner 2011). Disentangling the cause–effect relationships between land-use history, the biotic community, and the abiotic template presents a challenge, but understanding the role of land-use legacies may provide important insights regarding the mechanisms underlying the establishment and spread of invasive plants in forest ecosystems (Kuhman, Pearson, and Turner 2011). A total of 86 plots were established at Bent Creek Experimental Forest during the summer of 2006. Specifically, the study was conducted between June and August 2006. Half of these were established in historic agricultural plots and half in reference plots that were not formerly used for agriculture (pasture or rowcrops) based on the 1941 Forest Service Report by William Nesbitt and the appended land-use history map (History of early settlement and land use on the Bent Creek Experimental Forest Buncombe County, NC. 1941). Historic agriculture and reference plots were paired based on similarities in topography and bedrock geology (typically in relatively close proximity to one another). Within sites, two plots were established, one adjacent to the road and one 50 m away from the road (labeled as "A" and "B", respectively, in the "Plot #").
Does land-use history facilitate non-native plant invasion? A field experiment with Celastrus orbiculatus in the Bent Creek Experimental Forest in the southern Appalachians from 2008 to 2009
Although historic land use is often implicated in non-native plant invasion of forests, little is known about how land-use legacies might actually facilitate invasion. The researchers conducted a 2-year field seeding experiment in western North Carolina, USA, to compare germination and first-year seedling survival of Celastrus orbiculatus Thunb. in stands that had been cultivated and abandoned a century earlier and were dominated by tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera L.), and in paired stands that had never been cultivated and were dominated by oaks (Quercus spp.). Experiments were conducted at five sites with paired tulip poplar and oak stands by varying litter mass (none, low, or high) and litter type (tulip poplar or oak).
