Biodiversity and beating invasives

In this issue we dig deep into our work on weed control, outline our recent progress in eradicating the wiliest of pests, and reveal the power of graphic illustrations for communicating our science. Among other stories we’ve discovered how to boost kiwi chick survival against harmful bacteria, chased possums over bridges – and used genomics – to trace how they move across landscapes, and developed new guidelines for ecosourcing tree seeds in Aotearoa New Zealand. We hope you enjoy the issue.
