Exotic plants get a little help from their friends interactions with herbivores and microbes link exotic - plant success with cargbon cycling

Terrestrial ecologists have identified multifaceted control climate, bio- geography, disturbances, and their interactions—that shape how plant communities in natural ecosystems organize in space and time. Multiple documented interactions directly link plant diversity with other biotic guilds (herbivores, root symbionts, bacteria, and pathogens) and ecosystem processes [carbon (C) and nutrient cycling] (1). However, all appears to go awry when exotic (non-native) plant species invade and establish Themselves without human intervention; such changes affect the functioning and diversity of natural ecosystems.
