Ecological stoichiometry and invasive strategies of two alien species (Bidens pilosa and Mikania micrantha) in subtropical China

To understand the growth and nutritional strategies of two alien Asteraceae species in both nutrient‐rich and nutrient‐poor environments by measuring the stoichiometric characteristics of plants and soil nutrients, two alien species Bidens pilosa and Mikania micrantha from subtropical zone of southeast China was studied. The two species grow in P‐rich environments and/or have a strong capacity for absorption and utilization of P. The two...
