The right tree in the right place? A major economic tree species poses major ecological threats

P. J. Bellingham et al.

Summary: Tree species in the Pinaceae family, especially radiata pine, have been widely introduced as non-native species globally, particularly in the Southern Hemisphere. Despite the perception that radiata pine has not invaded extensively in New Zealand, our comprehensive review reveals that it has in fact invaded throughout the country. Our findings demonstrate that up to 76% of the land area in New Zealand is climatically suitable for supporting radiata pine populations, and it has invaded a variety of ecosystems. This highlights the need for stricter regulations and management measures to prevent and control the further invasion of radiata pine. Rating: 8/10.

Future climates are predicted to alter the potential distributions of non-native conifer species in New Zealand

Thomas R. Etherington et al.

Summary: Non-native conifers pose a significant threat to New Zealand's ecology and biodiversity. A study using ecological niche modelling found that the potential distribution of most non-native conifer species is predicted to decline in future climates. However, some species may experience an increase in suitable climate space. These findings can guide the management of non-native conifers in New Zealand and can also contribute to invasion risk modelling in other areas where these species are introduced in the Southern Hemisphere.

Quantifying the risk of non-native conifer establishment across heterogeneous landscapes

Sarah Wyse et al.

Summary: Pines (genus Pinus) are commonly cultivated for forestry purposes, but their rapid spread from plantations can cause substantial weed problems in many regions. Limited knowledge exists on the factors driving this spread, emphasizing the need for assessments across heterogeneous landscapes. Understanding the variables influencing pine establishment can inform management tools to protect vulnerable ecosystems from invasion.

Applying ecological research to improve long-term outcomes of wilding conifer management

Ian A. Dickie et al.

Summary: The removal of wilding conifers has become a major conservation focus in New Zealand. Short-term management activities may not achieve desired long-term outcomes, so greater integration of ecological research with management is needed. Understanding the impacts and legacies of wilding conifers over time is crucial for successful transition to different land uses.

Science, policy, and sustainable indigenous forestry in New Zealand

Matt S. McGlone et al.

Summary: Over 80% of New Zealand's indigenous forests are in public ownership with logging prohibited, and logging of private indigenous forests is restricted to sustainable harvesting only. The main drivers of change were economic, social, and cultural, rather than forestry research.

Integrating across knowledge systems to drive action on chronic biological invasions

Norman W. H. Mason et al.

Summary: The challenge of designing and implementing long-term management strategies for chronic biological invasions lies in integrating science-based and values-based knowledge sources, as well as developing durable knowledge generation and curation platforms. This paper proposes a transdisciplinary knowledge ecology framework to address this challenge.

Refining tree size and dose-response functions for control of invasive Pinus contorta

Carol A. Rolando et al.

Summary: Exotic conifers are rapidly spreading in many regions, leading to detrimental impacts on natural ecosystems and productive environments. Herbicides, especially triclopyr, are vital for managing these invasive species, but there is a lack of information on the amount needed to kill trees of different sizes. Field operations tend to use higher herbicide rates compared to experimental data, indicating potential for substantial reductions in herbicide use with more precise technologies.

Soil biotic and abiotic effects on seedling growth exhibit context-dependent interactions: evidence from a multi-country experiment on Pinus contorta invasion

Susan J. Nuske et al.

Summary: This study found that soil abiotic factors play a key role in the success of invasive plants. The origin of soil, both native and introduced, significantly influences the growth of invasive Pinus contorta, supporting the missed mutualism hypothesis.

Density dependence and spatial heterogeneity limit the population growth rate of invasive pines at the landscape scale

Rowan Sprague et al.

Summary: This study introduces a novel approach to estimate spatial processes affecting population growth, comparing estimates at plot scales and landscape scales, and finding significant differences between mean field estimates and landscape estimates.

Dispersal potential rather than risk assessment scores predict the spread rate of non-native pines across New Zealand

Sarah V. Wyse et al.

Summary: Common weed risk assessment tools and expert knowledge were unable to predict the spread rates of non-native naturalized pine species in New Zealand, and should not be used to provide an index of spread risk. Instead, we recommend a move towards the use of dispersal models when assessing the spread risk of these species, even at national scales. Current practices relying on expert assessment are likely to underestimate the spread rate of species currently considered 'low risk', suggesting that these tools may be inadequate for predicting spread of these species.
