Artificial nighttime lighting and herbivory interactively reduce the biomass production of invasive plants while enhancing that of native plants

Artificial light at night (ALAN) can influence plant growth, defence, interactions with herbivores, and invasion by exotic plants. However, studies assessing the interactive effects of ALAN, nutrient enrichment, and herbivory on invasive and native plant species remain limited. We conducted a greenhouse experiment to investigate the interactive effects of ALAN (No-ALAN vs. ALAN), nutrient enrichment (low vs. high), and herbivory by a generalist Spodoptera litura (without vs. with) on the growth, root allocation, and defence of six congeneric pairs of invasive and native plant species. Nutrient enrichment increased total biomass more in native plants than in invasive plants. ALAN enhanced total biomass in both groups of plants without herbivory, but increased native plant biomass and decreased that of invasive plants under herbivory. ALAN reduced root mass fraction, especially under low-nutrient conditions without herbivory. Native plants exhibited greater tolerance to herbivory and high..., , , # Artificial nighttime lighting and herbivory interactively reduce the biomass production of invasive plants while enhancing that of native plants

夜间人工光照（Artificial Light at Night, ALAN）可影响植物生长、防御、与植食动物的互作以及外来植物的入侵进程。然而，当前针对夜间人工光照、养分富集与植食作用对入侵和本土植物物种的交互影响的研究仍较为匮乏。本研究开展了一项温室实验，探究夜间人工光照（设置为无夜间人工光照 vs. 夜间人工光照）、养分富集（低养分 vs. 高养分）以及广食性昆虫斜纹夜蛾（Spodoptera litura）的植食作用（设置为无植食 vs. 有植食）三者的交互效应，对6对同属入侵与本土植物物种的生长、根系分配及防御特性的影响。
养分富集对本土植物总生物量的提升幅度高于入侵植物。在无植食条件下，夜间人工光照可提升两类植物的总生物量；但在植食作用下，夜间人工光照会增加本土植物的生物量，却降低入侵植物的生物量。夜间人工光照会降低根系质量分数，尤其在无植食的低养分条件下该效应更为显著。本土植物对植食作用及高[原文后续内容存在截断]的耐受性更强……
