摘要

Congeneric species with the same native and non-native ranges, but exhibiting different invasiveness, provide opportunities to assess the relative importance of factors contributing to successful invasions. For example, comparing the competitive ability of such congeners against other species from the native and non-native regions of invasive species can provide insight into the role of evolutionary experience with different competitors. We selected two congeneric Centaurea species with overlapping native and non-native ranges but with strikingly different invasive success, Centaurea solstitialis and C. calcitrapa, and conducted experiments with populations from each region using a suite of different native grass species from each region. When grown with Spanish grass species, competitive responses were 32% stronger for C. calcitrapa and 30% stronger for C. solstitialis, than when in competition with grasses native to California. Centaurea solstitialis from California had 66% higher competitive effects on grasses, all species considered together, than Spanish C. solstitialis; whereas the competitive effects of C. calcitrapa on grasses were not significantly different between C. calcitrapa ranges. Our results are consistent with the prediction that the evolution of increased competitive ability (EICA) might contribute to the devastating success of C. solstitialis in California, and that its absence might contribute to the modest naturalization of the non-invasive C. calcitrapa. Escape from the strong competitive effects and responses of grasses from Spain may also contribute to invasive success in California. Our results suggest that studies of EICA should be based on competitive tests, since biomass alone is not always a good predictor of competitive ability.

Solstitialis的竞争力较强,而不是与加利福尼亚州的草地竞争时。来自加利福尼亚的Centaurea Solstitialis对草的竞争效果高66%,所有物种都被认为是西班牙语C. Solstitialis;虽然C. Calcitrapa范围内C. Calcitapa对草的竞争效果没有显着差异。我们的结果与预测符合预测,即增加竞争能力(EICA)的演变可能导致加州C.Solstitialis的毁灭性成功,并且其缺失可能导致非侵入性C. Calcitrapa的适度归化。逃离西班牙草的强大竞争效果和对加利福尼亚州的侵入成功也可能有助于侵入成功。我们的研究结果表明EICA的研究应基于竞争性测试,因为仅为生物量并不总是具有竞争力的良好预测因素。
