Tangled evolutionary history: genetically divergent taxa and hybrids characterise lantana invasions in Australia Open
Aim to investigate population genomics and phylogeography in invasive lantana, including its taxonomy, spatial distribution, and patterns of morphological and genetic variation across the Australian continent. Location the main area invade…

The benefits and potential of pre-emptive weed biological control: Three case studies in Queensland, Australia Open
Invasive weed species can have significant impacts on agriculture, biodiversity and livelihoods. The cost and feasibility of managing these species using conventional means can be prohibitive depending on the size of the infestations or th…

Proposed plant host test list for assessing the risk of biological control agents for Clidemia hirta (L.) D.Don. Open
Background
\nThe following proposed plant host list is for the testing of potential biological control agents of Clidemia hirta (L.) D. Don (Melastomataceae). Post-release evidence from other countries suggests a promising outlook for biol…

Gall Thrips<i>Acaciothrips ebneri</i>(Thysanoptera: Phlaeothripidae) from Ethiopia, a Promising Biological Control Agent for Prickly Acacia in Australia Open
Based on climatic and plant phenotype matching,
\nnative-range surveys were conducted in Ethiopia
\nto identify prospective biological control agents
\nfor prickly acacia, a serious weed of grazing areas
