Effect of soil on the germination and early growth of the invader C. edulis and the native species Malcolmia littorea and Scabiosa atropurpurea in monocultures.

(Gt: Total germination and AS: Cumulative rate of germination). *indicate significant differences at 5% level between the seeds sown in Petri dishes filled with invaded soil and those sowed in native soil. Numbers in parentheses indicate the standard error. I: Invaded soil, N: Native soil. N = 5.Effect of soil on the germination and early growth of the invader C. edulis and the native species Malcolmia littorea and Scabiosa atropurpurea in monocultures.

(Gt：总萌发率（Total germination），AS：累积萌发率（Cumulative rate of germination))。* 代表在以入侵土壤（Invaded soil）装填的培养皿（Petri dishes）中播种的种子与天然土壤（Native soil）中播种的种子之间存在5%显著性水平的差异。括号内的数值为标准误（standard error）。I代表入侵土壤，N代表天然土壤。样本量N=5。本实验探究土壤对单种栽培模式下入侵种C. edulis以及本土物种Malcolmia littorea和Scabiosa atropurpurea的萌发与早期生长的影响。
