“…The bacterial inhibitor had a larger negative impact on the height and leaf mass of T. sebifera plants from invasive populations more than ones from native populations (Figures 1A, B). Other studies have found that the interactions of T. sebifera from invasive populations with soil microbes differ from those of plants from native populations (e.g., Zou et al, 2007;Yang et al, 2015;Shad et al, 2022). For instance, soil microorganisms can promote the rapid mineralization and uptake of soil organic N by T. sebifera, and it has been found that invasive T. sebifera promotes soil N mineralization more than native T. sebifera (Zhang et al, 2012(Zhang et al, , 2017.…”

Plant invasions affect biodiversity and seriously endanger the stability of ecosystems. Invasive plants show strong adaptability and growth advantages but are influenced by various factors. Soil bacteria and fungi are critical to plant growth and are important factors affecting plant invasions. Plant invasions also affect soil N2O emissions, but the effects of invasive plants from different population origins on N2O emissions and their microbial mechanisms are not clear. In this experiment, we grew Triadica sebifera from native (China) and invasive (USA) populations with or without bacterial (streptomycin) and/or fungal (iprodione) inhibitors in a factorial experiment in which we measured plant growth and soil N2O emissions of T. sebifera. Plants from invasive populations had higher leaf masses than those from native populations when soil bacteria were not inhibited (with or without fungal inhibition) which might reflect that they are more dependent on soil bacteria. Cumulative N2O emissions were higher for soils with invasive T. sebifera than those with a plant from a native population. Bacterial inhibitor application reduced cumulative N2O emissions but reductions were larger with application of the fungal inhibitor either alone or in combination with the bacterial inhibitor. This suggests that fungi play a strong role in plant performance and soil N2O emissions. Therefore, it is important to further understand the effects of soil microorganisms on the growth of T. sebifera and soil N2O emissions to provide a more comprehensive scientific basis for understanding the causes and consequences of plant invasions.

“…Increase in invasive species traits such as specific leaf area, leaf dry matter content, plant height and stem-specific density [66] accumulates high biomass, and nutrient contents, especially N, P, and K [67], produce high quantity, and quality litter further increases litter decomposition rate. Invasive plant litter input further increases microbial biomass [67], and soil enzymatic activities [67,68] may be attributed to the fast decomposition rates.…”

Litter decomposition plays an important role in the biogeochemical cycling of elements in ecosystems. Plant trait differences especially between invasive and native species lead to changes in litter decomposition rates. The litter decomposition rate is influenced by climatic factors such as seasonal variations, humidity, temperature, and rainfall, where species litter may have different responses. This review aims to better understand how litter decomposes in ecosystems associated with plant invasion and global changes. It also reviews the effects of various factors on litter degradation as well as how quickly invasive litter decomposes and contributes to greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions. Single species litter or only aboveground litter studies may not sufficiently represent ecosystem dynamics; therefore, the co-determination of above- and belowground litter in a mixture of species diversity is required in different biomes interaction with global change factors. As a result, comprehensive litter degradation studies must be conducted in order to understand the turnover rate of nutrients and other elements in these sensitive ecosystems.
