Figs show that nonnative species can invade ecosystems by forming unexpected partnerships | News, Sports, Jobs


University of Hawaii, via AP
THE CONVERSATION While surveying the Hawaiian island of Kauai in search of invasive plants in 2017, botanist Kelsey Brock spotted something unusal: a few nonnative species of figs seemed to be settling in.
As people traverse the planet for trade or travel, they bring a slew of species with them, many of which establish a foothold in a new place and may eventually replace the local native species. But because of a quirk of fig biology, my colleagues and I wondered how these figs could be reproducing to form new populations on Kauai.
Fig pollinators have long been famous for being limited to single fig species. Yet our investigation into Kauai’s establishing fig species upends a long-held belief about figs, because we found that one fig pollinator is pairing with multiple fig species that it never pollinated before. ....

In island ecosystems, geographical features such as inter-island distances or differences in altitude may influence how rapidly species split into two lineages, go extinct or disperse. Here is an aerial view of the Nāpali Coast State Wilderness Park, Kauai, Hawaii. (Image: Shutterstock)

Landis
Michael Landis, assistant professor of biology in Arts & Sciences at Washington University in St. Louis – along with Felipe Zapata from the University of California, Los Angeles, Nina Rønsted from the National Tropical Botanical Garden and Warren Wagner from the Smithsonian Natural History Museum – received a total of $1.12 million from the National Science Foundation for a project titled “Modeling the Origin and Evolution of Hawaiian Plants.”
The research team will focus on 12 understudied plant groups – including Kadua, Wikstroemia and Psychotria – using new sequencing and modeling techniques to gain a broader idea of how Hawaiian plant diversity originated. The project includes conservation and educational components as well, including collecting new wild specimens for the National Tropical Botanical Garden herbarium. ....
