Abstract:Understanding the factors that aVect establishment success of new species in established communities requires the study of both the ability of new species to establish and community resistance. Spatial pattern of species within a community can aVect plant performance by changing the outcome of inter-speciWc competition, and consequently community invasibility. We studied the eVects of spatial pattern of resident plant communities on Wtness of genotypes from the native and introduced ranges of two worldwide inv… Show more
