Fighting for resources – a native forb competitively excludes a closely related introduced species
Do niche or fitness differences prevent local-scale long-term coexistence between two closely related annual plant species?

Resprouting potential of rhizome fragments in an invasive aquatic plant
Non-native aquatic Ludwigia species from a polyploid complex are among the world’s most problematic invasive plants. A new paper in AoBP finds out why.
Loss of functional diversity and network modularity in introduced plant–fungal symbioses
From South America to Shenzhen, China; road trip of an invasive weed
Trait responses of invasive aquatic macrophyte congeners: colonizing diploid outperforms polyploidy
Demographic consequences of genetic variation for a plant invasion
Genetic analysis of spatial overlap by invasive vines
Kartzinel et al. use genetic markers to determine the extent and overlap of genetically unique kudzu vines (Pueraria montana var. lobata) in multiple patches over 2 years, and find that, contrary to expectations, patches are not dominated by one or a few genets.
