Non‐Native Plants Attain Native Levels of Microherbivory Richness With Time and Range Expansion
Drawing on a continental database of over 120,000 plant–microherbivore interactions, we demonstrate that non-native plants in Europe are not excluded from food webs indefinitely. With increasing resi...

Congratulations! We have observed rapid evolution of clonality in restored populations in response to mowing for hay. It was over 20 years in a perennial, so possibly even fewer generations than 4. Cool to see similar results from an experiment!

Rapid evolution of flower phenology and clonality in restored populations of multiple grassland species
Grassland plants introduced into degraded habitats within the framework of ecological restoration may quite commonly evolve in response to novel selection pressures at restored sites. This rapid evol....
