Multispecies comparison reveals that invasive and native plants differ in their traits but not in their plasticity (2011, result): “…V E V ER SU S N AT I V E S PE C I E S Our results do not match with previous studies that suggest that invasiveness of exotic species is related to an increased phenotypic plasticity (see for instance Gerlach & Rice 2003; Niinemets, Valladares & Ceulemans 2003; Davidson, Jen- nions & Nicotra 2011).”
Traits Associated with Invasiveness in Alien Plants: Where Do we Stand? (2008, unknown): “2001), Bromus (Kolb and Alpert 2003), Carpobrotus (Vilà and D’Antonio 1998a, b), Celastrus, Parthenocissus, Polygonum (Van Clef and Stiles 2001), Centaurea (Gerlach and Rice 2003), Centaurea, Crepis (Muth and Pigliucci 2006), Cortaderia (Lambrinos 2001, 2002), Crataegus (Sallabanks 1993), Cyatheacea”
The phenology of plant invasions: a community ecology perspective (2011, unknown): “…maackii) to stay active later in the fall season than native understory species may be one reason for its success (Resasco et al. 2007; Xu et al. 2007); in California, invasive yellow starthistle (Centaurea solstitialis) may benefit from similar late-season activity (Gerlach and Rice 2003).”
A Comparison of Plastic Responses to Competition by Invasive and Non-invasive Congeners in the Commelinaceae (2006, background): “…potential is typically unknown (e.g. Baruch et al. 1985; Pattison et al. 1998; Baruch and Goldstein 1999; Yamashita et al. 2000; Doyle et al. 2003; Kolb and Alpert 2003; Niinemets et al. 2003, also see references in Alpert et al. 2000, Daehler 2003, but see Gerlach and Rice 2003; Burns 2004).”
Superior performance and nutrient-use efficiency of invasive plants over non-invasive congeners in a resource-limited environment (2011, result): “As observed here, invasive plants have often been found at the low-LMA end of this spectrum when compared to closely-related native or noninvasive species (Pammenter et al. 1986; Durand and Goldstein 2001a; Grotkopp et al. 2002; Deng et al. 2004; Wilson et al. 2004; Feng et al. 2008), but this is by”
Ecological Effects of Transgenic Crops and the Escape of Transgenes into Wild Populations (2004, background): “These risks are difficult to evaluate because little is known about factors controlling population size or range in plants, or about characteristics of invading species and the receiving community that allow invasion (Hoffmann & Blows 1994, Lonsdale 1999, Kolar & Lodge 2001, Gerlach & Rice 2003).”
The Roles of Competition and Disturbance in a Marine Invasion (2006, background): “Gerlach and Rice (2003) demonstrated that star thistle (Centaurea solstitialis) invasiveness stemmed from the species’ ability to persist in competition with annual grasses, combined with its plastic growth and reproductive responses to disturbance.”
Invasive species grows faster, competes better, and shows greater evolution toward increased seed size and growth than exotic non-invasive congeners (2012, background): “For all three species, the native and nonnative ranges are much larger than just these two regions (Gerlach and Rice 2003; Maddox et al. 1985), with the exception of C. sulphurea, for which the only known populations that occur outside of its native range are found in California.”
Functional differences between native and alien species: a global-scale comparison: Functional differences of native and alien plants (2010, background): “…phylogenetically related species, irrespective of the communities in which these occur (D’Antonio 1998; Grotkopp, Rejmanek & Rost 2002; Mcdowell 2002; Gerlach & Rice 2003; Burns & Winn 2006; Funk & Vitousek 2007; Van Kleunen, Weber & Fischer 2010); or (ii) multi-species approaches based on…”
Jack of all trades, master of some? On the role of phenotypic plasticity in plant invasions. (2006, background): “Burns 2004; Hastwell & Panetta 2005; Leishman & Thomson 2005), only a handful of studies have expressly discussed the potential for both robustness and opportunism (Pattison et al. 1998; Milberg et al. 1999; Gerlach & Rice 2003 ).”
A comparison of invasive and non‐invasive dayflowers (Commelinaceae) across experimental nutrient and water gradients (2004, background): “For example, the invasive Centaurea solstitialis had relatively higher seedling leaf production (possibly correlated with performance) than the less invasive C. sulphurea under high levels of disturbance, but this relationship differed at intermediate levels of disturbance (Gerlach & Rice, 2003).”
