The Invasive Plant Amaranthus spinosus L. Exhibits a Stronger Resistance to Drought than the Native Plant A. tricolor L. under Co-Cultivation Conditions When Treated with Light Drought

Drought may facilitate the invasion process of invasive plants, mainly because invasive plants can obtain a stronger growth competitiveness than native plants under drought. It is therefore imperative to illuminate the mechanisms underlying the successful invasion of invasive plants under drought, with a particular focus on the differences in the resistance of invasive and native plants to drought. This study aimed to elucidate the differences in the resistance between the invasive plant
