Dislocation from coevolved relationships: a unifying theory for plant invasion and naturalization?

摘要: Invasions of many different plants have occurred in ecosystems around the world and theories mechanisms these invasions abound. All proposed value, may at least serve as facilitating factors, but no overarching conceptual framework for plant invasion has emerged. One common theme all is that invading plant, process geographic displacement, been dislocated from its coevolved biota relocated with a less-familiar biota. The impacts dislocation mutualists, parasites, competitors are follow general principles. relocation new also variable will change introduced coevolves biotic environment. I propose some hypotheses to guide predictions outcomes relationships and, hence, displacement. Invasiveness not determined by their life history traits or nature ecosystem they invading. primarily result itself. When confronted relationships, can become ecologically transformed. This transformation affect ability population established, invasive, naturalized
