The homeland security hypothesis suggests that some native plants can resist #Invasion by producing #AllelopathicCompounds that inhibit the growth of invasive plants. In order to understand how the #EntireNativeCommunity resists invasion through #Allelopathy, Lichao Wang et al. conducted this study.

Xiaoyan Chen et al found that morphological traits and biomass accumulation of Davidia involucrata seedlings were decreased by the addition of leaf water extracts of Cornus controversa, and increased by branch water extracts.
