The functional similarity between indigenous plant species (IPS) and invasive alien species
(IAS) governs the invasion process of successful IAS because IPS and coexisting IAS suffer …

Climate change and its detrimental effects on agricultural production, freshwater availability
and biodiversity accentuated the need for more stress-tolerant varieties of crops. This …

Invasive alien species (IAS) can distinctly inhibit seed germination and seedling growth
performance (SGeSGrP) of indigenous species via the allelopathy. The progressively …

Abstract Key Message Drought stress intensified the allelopathy of Rhus typhina L. and
Sapindus mukorossi Gaerten, and drought stress reinforced the allelopathy of S. mukorossi …

Araujia sericifera is an invasive plant with an increasing presence in South East Spain,
where it produces damage to native trees and shrubs and citric orchards. As the climatic …

Erigeron bonariensis and E. sumatrensis are two noxious weeds present in many parts of
the world. Their tolerance to salinity and water deficit was analysed at the seed germination …

Introduction Purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.) is a non-conventional food plant used
extensively in folk medicine and classified as a multipurpose plant species, serving as a …

Information is scarce on the interaction of mineral deficiency and salinity. We evaluated two
salt-tolerant spinach cultivars under potassium (K) doses (0.07, 0.15, 0.3, and 3.0 mmolc L …

Large amounts of nitrogen (N) enter ecosystems via N deposition. The increased drought
stress has incurred serious threats to plant seed germination and seedling growth (SGe …

Aims Potassium (K+) and iron (Fe) deficiency impeded plant growth and development.
Because of the increase in soil salinization, plant challenged with nutrient availability were …
