Fecundity as a basis for risk assessment of nonindigenous freshwater molluscsReuben P Keller
Department of Biological Sciences, University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, IN 46556, USA
Conserv Biol 21:191-200. 2007..quot; Our quantitative analyses could be extended to other taxa and ecosystems and offer a number of improvements over the qualitative risk assessments currently used by U.S. (and other) government agencies...
Molecular detection of invasive species in heterogeneous mixtures using a microfluidic carbon nanotube platformAndrew R Mahon
Department of Biological Sciences, Center for Aquatic Conservation, The University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, Indiana, United States of America

An ounce of prevention or a pound of cure: bioeconomic risk analysis of invasive speciesBrian Leung
Department of Biological Sciences, University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, IN 46556, USA
Proc Biol Sci 269:2407-13. 2002..By contrast, the US Fish and Wildlife Service spent US$825 000 in 2001 to manage all aquatic invaders in all US lakes. Thus, greater investment in prevention is warranted...
Risk assessment for invasive species produces net bioeconomic benefitsReuben P Keller
Department of Biological Sciences, University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, IN 46556, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 104:203-7. 2007..In addition, because plants have relatively low rates of invasion, applying screening protocols to animals would likely demonstrate even greater benefits...
Ecological predictions and risk assessment for alien fishes in North AmericaCynthia S Kolar
Department of Biological Sciences, University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, IN 46556, USA
Science 298:1233-6. 2002..We then identified fishes that pose a high risk to the Great Lakes if introduced from unintentional (ballast water) or intentional pathways (sport, pet, bait, and aquaculture industries)...
Propagule pressure and persistence in experimental populationsJohn M Drake
Department of Biological Sciences, University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, IN 46556, USA
Biol Lett 1:480-3. 2005..We conclude that for this system the most important aspect of propagule pressure is immigration rate, with relatively minor additional effects of introduction frequency and negligible effects of inoculum size...

Environmental Change Initiative, University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, IN 46556, USA
Mol Ecol 21:2555-8. 2012..Overall, Thomsen et al. (2012) provide a revolutionary roadmap for using eDNA for detection of species, estimates of relative abundance and quantification of biodiversity...
