Soil-microorganism-mediated invasional meltdown in plants
While most alien species fail to establish, some invade native communities and become
widespread. Our understanding of invasion success is derived mainly from pairwise …

Genotype diversity enhances invasion resistance of native plants via soil biotic feedbacks
Although native species diversity is frequently reported to enhance invasion resistance,
within‐species diversity of native plants can also moderate invasions. While the positive …

Invasional meltdown mediated by plant–soil feedbacks may depend on community diversity
D Chen, M van Kleunen - New Phytologist, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
It has been suggested that establishment of one alien invader might promote further
invasions. Such a so‐called invasional meltdown could be mediated by differences in soil …
