“…In the southeast of Belarus, the S. canadensis occurrence was 2.9% in forest landscapes, 14.7% in meadows and pastures, 15.5% in abandoned lands, 34.3% in agricultural built-up landscape, and 41.3% in urbanised landscape (Gusev, 2018). During 10 years, the projective cover of S. canadensis at the study plots increased in ten and hundred times.…”

“…For example, in abandoned lands, the total number of species reduced in 2.8 times. And the number of species per 100 m 2 reduced in three times (Gusev, 2018). Despite the slower Solidago canadensis invasion in natural plant communities, this process is more dangerous.…”

“…Projective cover of Solidago canadensis in different habitat types. Designations: a, b, c -natural phytocoenoses of the Sanctuary «Prilepsky» (this study); AGR (agricultural plot), RUD (ruderal plot), BL (built-up landscape), SAND (sand pit plots) (according to Gusev, 2018). According to the European Community legislation, the objectives of Protected Areas include the prevention, minimisation and mitigation of the negative impact of both intentionally and unintentionally introduced alien species on biodiversity status (Regulation (EU) 1143/2014).…”

Protected Areas provide a valuable source of information on the effects of invasive alien species on biodiversity and ecosystem functioning as well as the dynamics of invasions. Solidago canadensis is an extremely aggressive alien species. It is included into the world's 100 most invasive plant species. Our study aimed to monitor the invasiveness of S. canadensis in the Sanctuary «Prilepsky» in Minsk district. The article contains a brief description of the introduction of Solidago canadensis in Europe and more detailed in Belarus. The parameters characterising its invasiveness (average shoot length, foliage projective cover, average number of vegetative shoots, average number of generative shoots of S. canadensis and the average number of associated species per study plot) have been measured in three plant communities of the Sanctuary «Prilepsky» (Minsk district, Belarus) in 2016 and 2018. We noted that the invasiveness of S. canadensis is linked to the amount of sunlight received by ecotope. The proposed control measures include the afforestation of the open parts of the Sanctuary «Prilepsky» using native tree species, multiple mowings, and destroying the plants directly at the areas of most concern by volunteers.

“…It quickly occupies the areas of disturbed phytocenoses through the vegetative propagation by long rhizomes and due to high growth rate, which in combination with the transformation of habitat leads to significant changes in the structure of local vegetation and has negative consequences for phytobiota and zoobiota [ 1 , 8 , 9 ]. Thus, this species is able to form monodominant communities, maintain its own populations for a long time, lead to collapse in the recovery process, i.e., significantly extend the recovery period of indigenous plant communities of meadow vegetation [ 10 , 11 , 12 ].…”

This study provides data on the problem of potential complexation of phenolic compounds synthesized by the plants Solidago canadensis L. and Solidago gigantea Ait. with ammonium forms of nitrogen, partly immobilized in the soil. A comparative analysis of secondary metabolites of the studied plants was performed by HPLC. The leaves of invasively active Solidago canadensis contain nine times more rutin than the plants of Solidago gigantea. Adding to the leaf extracts (v/v1/20) aqueous ammonia solution to pH 8.0 on the chromatograms decreases the intensity or completely causes peaks of flavonoids to disappear; instead, there are peaks of new polar substances (tR 1.5 and 2.0 min). The selective effect of the phenol-ammonium complex on various plant species was revealed. At a concentration of 20 μg/mL, these substances stimulated the formation of lateral roots in soybean seedlings and chrysanthemum cuttings. The suppression of root growth in radish seedlings occurred at a concentration of flavonoids in the extract of 25 μg/mL. In addition, a positive chemotaxis of the Pseudomonas putida (PGPR) was detected in the nitrogen-containing complex based on rutin (5 μg/mL). The identified feature allows PGPR colonization of the root system of Solidago canadensis with corresponding changes in the structure of the microbial community. The ability of the obtained nitrogen-containing polar complexes to regulate the growth processes of plants at extremely low concentration points to promising research in this direction.

“…Several alien species from genus Solidago , from North American are found very successful worldwide (Weber, 1998; Szymura and Szymura, 2016). In central Europe, three invaders, S. canadensis , S. gigantea , and S. altissima have been found (Szymura and Szymura, 2013) and it is observed that S. canadensis (Canada goldenrod) have became dominant in many sites and caused loss of diversity of native species in Europe (Gusev, 2018). It is also invasive in Asia and Australia (Dong et al, 2006).…”

Background Solidago canadensis is a notorious invasive species from North America that is spreading across East China. It is invading some coastal grasslands and replacing native grass species. The effects of the S. canadensis invasion on soil nutrient cycling in the grasslands remain unclear. This study examined the effects of the invasion of S. canadensis on macronutrient accumulation in species aboveground part and soil. Methods Aboveground biomass, macronutrient (N, P, and K) pools in biomass, litter mass and decomposition rates, soil macronutrient availability and soil microbial biomass and enzyme activity that were related to nutrient transformation were compared between plots invaded by S. canadensis and uninvaded plots dominated by three different native grass species: Phacelurus latifolius , Phragmites australis , and Imperata cylindrica . Results S. canadensis had higher aboveground biomass, higher leaf N, P, and K concentrations, and consequently, a larger macronutrient pool size in the standing biomass. S. canadensis also produced more litter with higher N, P, and K concentrations and faster decomposition rates. The S. canadensis invasion did not change the total N, P, and K concentration in the topsoil (0–10 cm), but the invasion did increase their availability. The S. canadensis invasion did not increase the total soil organic matter (TSOM) content but did increase the soil microbial biomass and the activities of urease, alkaline phosphatase, invertase, amylase, and glucosidase in the topsoil. Conclusion The invasion of S. canadensis accelerates the macronutrient cycling rate via increases in aboveground productivity and nutrient accumulation in standing biomass, faster nutrient release from litter and higher soil microbial activity. An enhanced nutrient cycling rate may further enhance its invasiveness through a positive feedback on soil processes.
