“…Generally, the values of Ellenberg's indicators in habitats with S. ×niederederi were similar to those evidenced on fallow lands with S. canadensis and S. gigantea Aiton [49,51]. However, Bielecka et al [52] noticed that S. canadensis grows on diverse habitats from strongly acidic to alkaline. Moreover, field studies in Lithuania revealed that S. canadensis, S. gigantea and S. ×niederederi can occupy similar soils with slightly lower pH [17].…”

Introduction Natural hybridization between alien and native plant species reflects the consequences of introduction, establishment and invasion of alien plants [1-8]. According to recommendation by Pyšek et al. [9], hybrids between alien and native plant species should be treated as alien species and they can pose a threat to native biodiversity [1-4]. In extreme cases, when hybridization between alien and native species is common in the wild and the hybrids are fully vigorous

“…Goldenrod species are hemicryptophytes (shoots are annual and newly sprout each spring) with rhizomes; they are insect pollinated and self‐incompatible, with inflorescences forming at the top of each shoot which can produce up to 10,000–20,000 wind‐dispersed seeds per one ramet (Bielecka et al., 2017 ; Guzikowa & Maycock, 1986 ; Moran et al., 2017 ; Schmid et al., 1988 ).

Aim The invasion process is a complex, context‐dependent phenomenon; nevertheless, it can be described using the PAB framework. This framework encompasses the joint effect of propagule pressure (P), abiotic characteristics of the environment (A), and biotic characteristics of both the invader and recipient vegetation (B). We analyzed the effectiveness of proxies of PAB factors to explain the spatial pattern of Solidago canadensis and S. gigantea invasion using invasive species distribution models. Location Carpathian Mountains and their foreground, Central Europe. Methods The data on species presence or absence were from an atlas of neophyte distribution based on a 2 × 2 km grid, covering approximately 31,200 km2 (7,752 grid cells). Proxies of PAB factors, along with data on historical distribution of invaders, were used as explanatory variables in Boosted Regression Trees models to explain the distribution of invasive Solidago. The areas with potentially lower sampling effort were excluded from analysis based on a target species approach. Results Proxies of the PAB factors helped to explain the distribution of both S. canadensis and S. gigantea. Distributions of both species were limited climatically because a mountain climate is not conducive to their growth; however, the S. canadensis distribution pattern was correlated with proxies of human pressure, whereas S. gigantea distribution was connected with environmental characteristics. The varied responses of species with regard to distance from their historical distribution sites indicated differences in their invasion drivers. Main conclusions Proxies of PAB are helpful in the choice of explanatory variables as well as the ecological interpretation of species distribution models. The results underline that human activity can cause variation in the invasion of ecologically similar species.

“…The ecological success of the goldenrod is due, amongst other things, to a wide range of tolerance of environmental factors [23,30], excellent acclimatization to new habitat con-ditions [7,22], and their impact on the transformation of nutrients in the soil [31]. Kozak and Pudełko [32] stated that the fields where invasive goldenrods appeared were indicated as the fallow areas most affected by soil degradation.…”

Self-Renewal of Invasive Goldenrods (Solidago spp.) as a Result of Different Mechanical Management of Fallow

The spread of invasive plants is one of the most significant causes of biodiversity loss in natural, semi-natural, and anthropogenic habitats in Poland. This two-year study aimed to assess the rate of self-renewal of Canadian goldenrod (Solidago canadensis L.) and giant goldenrod (S. gigantea Aiton), and the possibility of achieving full generative development on fallow land restored to agricultural use with mechanical treatments. The following research objects were examined: the control (no mechanical treatments); one-time mowing; two-time mowing; one-time mowing plus one-time rotary tilling; and one-time mowing plus two-time rotary tilling. The phenological development of Solidago spp. was observed every 14 days from June to September each year. In October of each growing season, the aboveground parts of goldenrods’ biomass were measured, and selected morphological parameters were assessed. Two-time mowing and one-time mowing with two-time rotary tilling resulted in the highest reductions in the share of goldenrods in the generative stages of development, of 64.0% and 51.7% compared to the control, respectively. The two-time mowing treatment was the most effective at inhibiting goldenrods’ biomass accumulation, with a 57.7–77.0% decrease in biomass compared to the control. This treatment also reduced the number of flowering shoots and inflorescence lengths of both Solidago species.
