Invasive Australian Acacia seed banks: Size and relationship with stem diameter in the presence of gall-forming biological control agents.
Australian Acacia are invasive in many parts of the world. Despite significant mechanical and biological efforts to control their invasion and spread, soil-stored seed banks prevent their effective and sustained removal. In response South Africa has had a strong focus on employing seed reducing biol...
