  • Invasive species differ in key functional traits from native and non‐invasive alien plant species 
    Mathakutha, Rabia; Steyn, Christien; Le Roux, Peter Christiaan; Blom, I.J. (Izak); Chown, Steven L.; Daru, Barnabas H.; Ripley, Brad S.; Louw, Anche; Greve, Michelle (Wiley, 2019-09)
    QUESTIONS : Invasive species establish either by possessing traits, or trait trade‐offs similar to native species, suggesting pre‐adaptation to local conditions; or by having a different suite of traits and trait trade‐offs, ...
  • Marine protected areas are insufficient to conserve global marine plant diversity 
    Daru, Barnabas H.; Le Roux, Peter Christiaan (Wiley, 2016-03)
    AIM : Marine plants are only incidentally included in conservation efforts for marine biodiversity. Here, for the first time, we apply phylogenetic methods to marine macrophytes (mangroves and seagrass species) to test for ...
  • Unravelling the evolutionary origins of biogeographic assemblages 
    Daru, Barnabas H.; Van der Bank, Michelle; Davies, T. Jonathan (Wiley, 2018-03)
    AIM : Floristic and faunal diversity fall within species assemblages that can be grouped into distinct biomes or ecoregions. Understanding the origins of such biogeographic assemblages helps illuminate the processes shaping ...
