Phylogenetic structure of alien and native species in regional plant assemblages across China: Testing niche conservatism hypothesis versus niche convergence …
Aim The introduction of alien species may be influenced by the phylogenetic structure of the
native assemblage, while at the same time altering that structure. Understanding these …
