Intraspecific N and P stoichiometry of Phragmites australis: geographic patterns and variation among climatic regions
Geographic patterns in leaf stoichiometry reflect plant adaptations to environments. Leaf stoichiometry variations along environmental gradients have been extensively studied among terrestrial plants, but little has been known about intraspecific leaf stoichiometry, especially for wetland plants. Here we analyzed the dataset of leaf N and P of a cosmopolitan wetland species, Phragmites australi...
متن کاملPlasticity and Epigenetic variation in Phragmites australis, an invasive marsh grass
A recent field known as epigenetics has shown that the environment can impact gene expression through chemical modifications, such as methylation, of genes. This provides a mechanism for acclimation to be inherited across mitotic and meiotic generations, thus more stable than physiological acclimation, and permits more reversible adaptation at time scales shorter than natural selection. We exam...
متن کاملSuppression of native Melaleuca ericifolia by the invasive Phragmites australis through allelopathic root exudates.
PREMISE OF THE STUDY Invasive plants are a great threat to the conservation of natural ecosystems and biodiversity. Allelopathy as a mechanism for invasion of plants such as Phragmites australis, one of the most aggressive invaders, has the potential to suppress neighboring plant species. Allelopathic interference, through root exudates of P. australis on native Melaleuca ericifolia, was invest...
متن کاملPositive Effects of Nonnative Invasive Phragmites australis on Larval Bullfrogs
BACKGROUND Nonnative Phragmites australis (common reed) is one of the most intensively researched and managed invasive plant species in the United States, yet as with many invasive species, our ability to predict, control or understand the consequences of invasions is limited. Rapid spread of dense Phragmites monocultures has prompted efforts to limit its expansion and remove existing stands. M...
متن کاملSoil pathogen communities associated with native and non-native Phragmites australis populations in freshwater wetlands
Soil pathogens are believed to be major contributors to negative plant-soil feedbacks that regulate plant community dynamics and plant invasions. While the theoretical basis for pathogen regulation of plant communities is well established within the plant-soil feedback framework, direct experimental evidence for pathogen community responses to plants has been limited, often relying largely on i...
