Photosynthesis, growth, and survival of native and invasive woody species: Trade-offs and plasticity across open and understory environments
Non-native, invasive plants often exhibit high photosynthesis and growth rates relative to native species. Growth in open environments typically varies inversely with understory survival, however. Do invasive and native species achieve growth by similar means? Are they subject to similar trade-offs...
