Invasive perennial forb effects on gross soil nitrogen cycling and nitrous oxide fluxes depend on phenology

Abstract: Invasive plants can increase soil nitrogen (N) pools and accelerate soil N cycling rates, but their effect on gross N cycling and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions has rarely been studied. We hypothesized that perennial pepperweed (Lepidium latifolium) invasion would increase rates of N cycling and gaseous N loss, thereby depleting ecosystem N and causing a negative feedback on invasion. We measured a suite of gross N cycling rates and net N2O fluxes in invaded and uninvaded areas of an annual grassland in the Sac… Show more

“…Because invasive plants are often less susceptible to native pathogens than are native plants (Agrawal et al 2005;Engelkes et al 2008;Klironomos 2002;Mitchell and Power 2003), this "enemy release" can provide another relative fitness benefit to invasive plants over natives (Kardol et al 2007;Keane and Crawley 2002). Invasive plant effects on soil microbial communities and their functions can vary with invasion age (Lankau 2011), plant phenology (Portier et al 2019), and soil properties (Li et al 2006). Therefore, it is important to investigate these plant-microbe interactions in different environmental contexts to avoid biases in the documented patterns (Hulme et al 2013).…”

“…Garlic mustard studies often focus on plant-microbe interactions during the active life stage of garlic mustard earlier in the growing season (e.g., Anthony et al 2017;Burke et al 2019). However, invasive plant effects on soil microbial communities (Arthur et al 2012) and microbial processes (Portier et al 2019) can vary with plant phenology. As garlic mustard exhibits an early phenology relative to native competitors (Engelhardt and Anderson 2011), its effects on soil microbial communities may depend on its own life stages or broader temporal changes associated with surrounding plants and ecosystem conditions (Bennett et al 2013;Saikkonen 2007).…”
