Abstract Biotic resistance may influence invasion success; however, the relative roles of species richness, functional or phylogenetic distance in predicting success are not fully understood. We used biomass fraction Chromolaena odorata , an invasive tropical and subtropical areas, as a measure ‘invasion success’ series artificial communities varying richness. Communities were constructed using from Mexico (native range) China (non‐native range). found strong evidence biotic resistance:...
Summary Soil microbes are important in mediating allelopathic interactions between invasive and native plants the field. However, it was not known how these vary process of biological invasions effects soil microbes; this knowledge may facilitate understanding dynamics mechanisms managing invaded ecosystems. We conducted competition seed germination experiments to determine A geratina adenophora soils from 42 sites with varying abundances plant. Then we isolated that could degrade...
Understanding intraspecific trait variations, particularly for invasive species that occupy large geographic areas with different resource conditions, can enhance our understanding of plant responses to changes in environmental resources. However, most related studies have focused on aboveground traits, while variations root traits and resources during biological invasion not been clarified. To fill this knowledge gap, we compared the Chromolaena odorata from 10 introduced populations...
The increasing threat of biological invasion poses significant challenges to global ecosystems, necessitating urgent management measures. This study investigated the potential biochar derived from invasive plant Chromolaena odorata, produced through anaerobic digestion, as a tool for mitigating soil legacy effects this species and restoring community. Soil samples were collected artificially constructed plots communities subjected treatments with different levels fungicide addition. Potted...
Abstract Premise Exploring how functional traits vary and covary is important to understand plant responses environmental change. However, we have limited understanding of the ways multiple within invasive species. Methods We measured 12 leaf an Chromolaena odorata , associated with or economics, herbivore defense, drought resistance on 10 introduced populations from Asia native South Central America, selected across a broad range climatic conditions, grown in common garden. Results Species'...
To determine the invasiveness of invasive plants, many studies have compared photosynthetic traits or strategies between and native species. However, few dynamics species during light fluctuations. We induction, relaxation leaf species,
Abstract Aims Plant-soil feedback (PSF), which may vary across space and time, is considered an important mechanism in biological invasion. However, it still unclear how PSF change during invasion heterogeneous environmental background. Methods Here, we measured the effects of soil microbial communities on invasive species Ageratina adenophora fungal at 24 sites with different periods two forest gaps contrasting backgrounds. The dominance A. (cover aboveground biomass) diversity native these...
Abstract Aims Plant-soil feedback (PSF), which may vary across spaces and time, is considered as an important mechanism in biological invasions. However, it still unclear how PSF changes during invasions different environments. Methods To address this problems, we measured aboveground biomass cover of the invasive plant Ageratina adenophora , richness diversity its co-occurring natives, PSFs for invader, soil nutrients fungal communities at uninvaded, recently long invaded sites lightly...
