However, the taxonomic identity of British non-natives is uncertain, and they are either referred to as Spanish bluebells, H. hispanica, or as hybrids between H. non-scripta and H. hispanica. Aims To establish whether a detailed morphological analysis can shed light on the taxonomic identity of non-native British bluebells. Methods We measured 28 morphological characters and recorded the pollen fertility of native and non-native bluebells in Britain and compared these with H. hispanica populations from Portugal. Results British non-native bluebells appeared morphologically close to H. hispanica but occupied a separate phenotypic space. All three taxa showed high morphological variability with overlapping ranges, however, at least 92.8% of trait means were significantly different between any pair-wise taxon comparison. Sixty per cent of continuous traits were significantly larger in British non-native bluebells compared to H. non-scripta and H. hispanica. In contrast, pollen fertility was significantly lower in British non-natives (79%) compared to H. non-scripta (94%) and H. hispanica (84%).

Emergence of seedlings was similar between 1 and 3 cm (ca. 20–60 %) for both species. The highest seedling survival rates (ca. 100 %) were recorded for seeds sown at a depth of 2 cm for S. densiflora and between 1 and 3 cm for A. portulacoides.

Results Short-turf grassland had replaced much tall-tussock grassland as a result of grazing and burning. Intense trampling had resulted in dominance by an introduced annual grass. Disturbance of most tall-tussock grassland on lava flows had left gaps made by fire or rabbit-scratching; these were invaded by distinctive sets of species. Azonal communities, changed much less by humans, contained 63% of 155 native species of vascular plant encountered, and 68% of 65 mosses.

Results A total of 124 diatom species were identified in springs with water temperature between 18.5 and 42.4°C. Community diversity decreased with increasing temperature and the highest species richness was found at temperatures ≤ 25°C. Three diatom assemblages were defined, discriminated by temperature ranges (≤25°C, 25–35°C and ≥35°C).

Methods From 2011 to 2017 in a grassland in Sonoma County, California, USA, we treated 20 1-m2 plots in C. solstitialis-invaded patches with chemical and mechanical removal. We monitored cover of all plants in those plots, plus 20 invaded untreated and 20 uninvaded plots, for a total of 60 plots in two blocks. Results Native plant richness was lower in invaded than in non-invaded plots. More late spring rainfall resulted in greater C. solstitialis cover in the following year. Native species richness in the six years after initial removal was slightly higher in removal plots than in untreated control plots. Conclusions Centaurea solstitialis removal alone results in modest benefits for native plant species richness.

Aims: To determine whether establishing tree seedlings and an alpine herb are similarly sensitive to alpine plant neighbours under ambient and altered climate. Methods: We imposed active heating, watering, and removed all plants adjacent to emerging conifer seedlings and an alpine herb. Results: Picea engelmannii seedlings showed lower survival compared with Pinus flexilis 3 weeks following neighbour removal, and after 1 year only survived in watered plots. Pinus seedlings responded to neighbour removal by lowering the quantum yield of photosynthesis (ϕPSII). Contrary to expectations from the stress gradient hypothesis, survival was reduced without neighbours near the low-elevation range limit of Chionophila jamesii. Conclusions: Pinus flexilis has higher expansion potential into the alpine, while Picea engelmannii requires moist conditions that could be facilitated by neighbours to expand its range. This implies likely range expansion by P. flexilis with consequences for alpine plant diversity and ecosystem function.","PeriodicalId":49691,"journal":{"name":"Plant Ecology & Diversity","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2020-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/17550874.2020.1762134","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44107922","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two or more invasive plant species (invaders) may coexist in the same ecosystem. Thus, it is important to assess the effects of co-invasion on SNB communities to elucidate the ecological mechanisms of plant invasion. Aims: The effects of two co-occurring invaders (Erigeron annuus and Solidago canadensis) with different coverage classes on SNB communities were evaluated via a comparative study. Methods: SNB communities were assessed using a high-throughput sequencing approach. Results: The invasion of E. annuus and/or S. canadensis, regardless of coverage, did not pose pronounced effects on soil physicochemical properties and the diversity of SNB. Soil electrical conductivity was the most important environmental factors explaining the variation in SNB composition. This phenomenon may be chiefly attributed to the fact that the shifts in soil electrical conductivity can recruit obvious variations in the resource utilisation and acquisition patterns of carbon for the metabolism of soil microorganisms. Plant Shannon’s diversity was also one key factor influencing the community structure of SNB, but its direct effects are less powerful than soil electrical conductivity. However, the negatively indirect effects of plant Shannon’s diversity on the Shannon index, ACE index, and Chao1 index of SNB were noticeably greater than soil electrical conductivity. Therefore, the effects of plant Shannon’s diversity on the community structure of SNB may largely be attributed to the variation in soil electrical conductivity via the released root exudates and then modify the resource availability pattern of SNB. Conclusions: SNB diversity is more influenced by changes in soil variables like soil electrical conductivity than by the presence/coverage of invasive plant species.","PeriodicalId":49691,"journal":{"name":"Plant Ecology & Diversity","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/17550874.2020.1729887","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48324256","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods We assembled >13,000 geo-referenced occurrence records and eight environmental variables and conducted an ecological niche model analysis using maximum entropy, principal component and niche dynamics analysis. Results We found no evidence of niche shift in the hybrid, which may result in potential competition between parental and derived taxa in the introduced range. M. guttatus showed niche conservatism in introduced populations in Europe, but a niche shift in New Zealand, while M. luteus showed a niche shift in Europe.
