Journal ArticleDOI

Are invaders different? A conceptual framework of comparative approaches for assessing determinants of invasiveness.

TL;DR: A framework of the various comparisons that can be used to test for determinants of invasiveness, and the specific questions each comparison can address are presented, and how different comparisons complement each other, and therefore should be used in concert.
Journal ArticleDOI

A multi‐species experiment in their native range indicates pre‐adaptation of invasive alien plant species

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared traits between invasive and non-invasive species in their native range instead of in the non-native range and found that traits that lead to a high plant performance in the native range, can confer pre-adaptation to become invasive.
Journal ArticleDOI

Preadapted for invasiveness: do species traits or their plastic response to shading differ between invasive and non-invasive plant species in their native range?

TL;DR: High biomass production across different light environments pre-adapts species to become invasive, and that this is not mediated by plasticities of the morphological traits that are frequently related to shade tolerance and avoidance.
