The Enhanced Tolerance of Invasive Alternanthera Philoxeroides Over Native Species Under Salt-Stress in China

Abstract: Effects of environmental stress (e.g. salt stress) on the plant invasions are still relatively unknown. Therefore, we analyzed the physiological characteristics of Alternanthera philoxeroides (Mart.) Griseb. as an invasive plant and Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC. as a native plant under single and mixed planting, in green house, Jiangsu University, China. Plants were subjected to four different levels of salt stress treatments "i.e.", control, low (0.8%), medium (1.6%) and high (2.4%) that were made … Show more

“…The presentation of plant growth is linked with plant water status because continuous use of saline irrigation increases the salt concentrations in the root zone, thus decreasing soil water potential (Javed et al, 2019a). Under these conditions, dehydration occurs at the cellular level, which ultimately causes osmotic stresses (Javed et al, 2019b). These osmotic stresses produce ionic imbalance by increasing the amounts of Na + and Cland decreasing the amounts of K + , Ca 2+ and Mn 2+ (Chen et al, 2016).…”

“…Water potential was ranked 2 nd as it played an important role in the plant growth. The plant water status is an essential factor for invasive plant growth development because it controls the plant's water and nutrients requirement [12]. The variations in the water status affected the opening and closing of stomata [17].…”

“…Under flooding and nutrient enrichment conditions, W. trilobata increased its height and leaf area to get the sunlight for photosynthesis [11]. While, Alternanthera philoxeroides increased its root length under water stress and nutrient limitation conditions to capture resources [12]. Moreover, some invasive plant species show stomatal closure between warm and drought conditions to reduce the evapotranspiration and maintain their water status [13].…”

“…Soil salinization is one of the abiotic stresses that affects the growth and development of crops, severely restricting the improvement in crop yield and quality. The area of various types of salinized land in China has exceeded 1 × 10 8 hm 2 , and it is mainly concentrated in the northern and coastal areas [ 1 , 2 ]. The coastline of the coastal area of Jiangsu Province is 744 km long, and the area is mostly a silt coast.…”
