Behind coexistence: The role of regenerative niche divergence in the invasion of multiple confamilial woody species
Differences in germination phenology and seedling tolerance to water stress and low light suggest potential niche differentiation across irradiance and water gradients. These interspecific differences among coinvasive species may influence establishment sites, leading to spatial segregation and facilitating coexistence in multispecies-invaded ecosystems.
