DOI: 10.1002/ecy.3610
Abstract: Current theory (e.g., consumer-controlled theory) predicts that nutrient enrichment typically amplifies herbivory and thereby suppresses the growth and expansion of invasive plants. Herbivores can facilitate plant regrowth in the native community by stimulating complementary growth… read more here.

Differential stoichiometric homeostasis and growth in two native and two invasive C3 grasses
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Oecologia"
DOI: 10.1007/s00442-020-04734-5
Abstract: Global changes interact with plant invasions by differentially impacting native and invasive species. For example, invasive plants often benefit from eutrophication to a greater degree than native plants. While this is well-documented, a broad, trait-based… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10530-018-1664-9
Abstract: The competitive superiority of invasive plants plays a key role in the process of plant invasions, enabling invasive plants to overcome the resistance of local plant communities. Fast aboveground growth and high densities lead to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10530-021-02494-8
Abstract: Watershed degradation due to invasion threatens downstream water flows and associated ecosystem services. While this topic has been studied across landscapes that have undergone invasive-driven state changes (e.g., native forest to invaded grassland), it is… read more here.

Germination, survival, and early growth of three invasive plants in response to five forest management regimes common to US northeastern deciduous forests

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2018.05.037
Abstract: Abstract The association between invasive plants and disturbance is well-documented. Most forest management regimes include disturbance (i.e., harvesting and fire) to improve regeneration of native plants, such as oaks. There is a need for land… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jpe/rtaa075
Abstract: Soil biota can affect plant–plant interactions and non-native plant invasions via plant–soil feedback (PSF). Understanding the drivers underlying interspecific variations in PSF is important for predicting the role of soil biota in non-native plant invasions.… read more here.
