• Invasive species differ in key functional traits from native and non‐invasive alien plant species (2019, background): “Support exists in the literature for both the ‘phenotypic divergence’ and ‘phenotypic con‐ vergence’ hypotheses, although, as here, the ‘phenotypic divergence’ hypothesis tends to be supported most commonly (e.g., Leishman et al., 2007, 2010; Ordonez et al., 2010; van Kleunen et al., 2010).”
• The scaling of genome size and cell size limits maximum rates of photosynthesis with implications for ecological strategies (2019, background): “…efficient carbon-capture strategies (e.g. high specific leaf area), relative to co-occurring native species (Leishman et al. 2007; Kleunen et al. 2010; Ordonez et al. 2010; Kuester et al. 2014) or naturalized but not invasive nonnative species (Rejmánek and Richardson 1996; Gallagher et al. 2014).”
• Linking above- and belowground resource use strategies for native and invasive species of temperate deciduous forests (2015, background): “One possibility is that where plant growth is limited by soil N supply, invaders exhibit greater photosynthetic N use efficiency at the leaf level (Funk and Vitousek 2007; Leishman et al. 2010; Ordonez et al. 2010; Ordonez and Olff 2013).”
• Current mismatch between research and conservation efforts: The need to study co-occurring invasive plant species (2013, background): “We now have better trait-based models to predict which exotic plant species might become invasive (Rejmánek and Richardson, 1996; Ordonez et al., 2010; Castro-Díez et al., 2011), an improved sense of potential factors that may influence community susceptibility to invasion (Levine and D’Antonio, 199”
