Invasive plants have a multitude of impacts on plant communities through their direct and
indirect effects on soil chemistry and ecosystem function. For example, plants modify the soil …

Estuaries are among the most invaded ecosystems on the planet. Such invasions have led
in part, to the formation of a massive $1 billion restoration effort in California's Sacramento …

Invasive plants are capable of modifying attributes of soil to facilitate further invasion by
conspecifics and other invasive species. We assessed this capability in three important plant …

Plant communities in abiotically stressful, or 'harsh', habitats have been reported to be less
invaded by non-native species than those in more moderate habitats. Here, we synthesize …

Salt tolerance mechanisms were studied in three Irano-Turanian halophytic species from the
Brassicaceae‎‎(Lepidium latifolium, L. perfoliatum and Schrenkiella parvula) and compared …

Invasive species exert disproportionate impacts in wetlands and pose particular challenges
for rare species persisting at small spatial scales. In the urbanized San Francisco Estuary …

Invasive plants can increase soil nitrogen (N) pools and accelerate soil N cycling rates, but
their effect on gross N cycling and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions has rarely been studied …

CURRENT CELLULOSIC BIOENERGY SOURCES In the United States, bioenergy sources
are being investigated in an effort to reduce dependence on foreign oil and the associated …

Lepidium latifolium is an aggressive plant species that is invading both wetlands and
uplands across a wide range of salinities. This study examined how salinity and moisture …

Introduction Alliaria petiolata (garlic mustard), an invasive forest herb in North America, often
alters nutrient availability in its non-native ecosystems, but the mechanisms driving these …
