Weed abundance is positively correlated with native plant diversity in grasslands of southern Australia.
Weeds are commonly considered a threat to biodiversity, yet interactions between native and exotic species in grasslands are poorly understood and reported results vary depending on the spatial scale of study, the factors controlled for and the response variables analysed. We tested whether weed pre...
