Dear all,
"Invasive plants can affect community structure and ecosystem processes in various ways. One of the ways in which an invasive plant can impact ecosystem functioning is by disrupting native plant-pollinator interactions,." says a researcher from Bangalore. Recently I have seen a massive growth of an invasive plant Lantana camara in Hoskote on the outskirts of Bangalore. Does any one in the group have any research findings that can bind this explosion of the Lantana to Climate Change. I am interested in working a story on this but I do not have scientific proof to support this phenomenon. regds, Marianne -- Fellow with UNFCCC, UNEP & Robert Bosch Stiftung Former Asst Editor- The Deccan Herald Freelance Journalist Adjunct faculty St. Joseph's College & COMMITS http://mariannedenazareth.blogspot.com/
