Same fertilizer, different timing: Nutrient pulses give two invasive plants an edge
Fluctuating resource supplies can help some highly invasive plants outcompete native species. But research on how nutrient fluctuations affect plant invasion has largely relied on greenhouse or simplified experiments, leaving it unclear whether the same mechanisms operate under natural conditions.
