Abstract

Abstract Vincetoxicum nigrum (Black Swallow-wort) and V. rossicum (Pale Swallowwort) are non-native, perennial vines that are spreading across North America. We collected soil samples from invaded sites in the northeastern United States and southeastern Canada. We also performed GIS analyses using the site locations, locations from iMapInvasives, and soil data from SSURGO. We found that Black Swallow-wort tended to occupy Inceptisols while Pale Swallow-wort occupied soils with more silt and clay, including Alfisols. Mean soil pH was lower at Black Swallow-wort sites compared to Pale Swallow-wort sites. However, both species colonized soils that varied widely in pH, fertility, texture, and taxonomy. We conclude that abiotic soil characteristics do not strongly constrain swallow-wort distributions in North America.

非本地入侵藤本植物黑燕窝草和白燕窝草在北美殖民地的土壤特征

摘要Vincetoxicum nigrum（黑燕草）和V.roscium（淡燕草）是分布在北美的非本地多年生藤蔓植物。我们从美国东北部和加拿大东南部的入侵地点采集了土壤样本。我们还使用现场位置、iMapInvasives的位置和SSURGO的土壤数据进行了GIS分析。我们发现黑燕草倾向于占据Inceptisol，而淡燕草则占据了含有更多淤泥和粘土的土壤，包括Alfisol。与淡燕麦地相比，黑燕麦地的平均土壤pH值较低。然而，这两个物种都定居在pH值、肥力、质地和分类学差异很大的土壤中。我们得出的结论是，非生物土壤特征并没有强烈限制燕草在北美的分布。

期刊介绍： The Northeastern Naturalist covers all aspects of the natural history sciences of terrestrial, freshwater, and marine organisms and the environments of the northeastern portion of North America, roughly bounded from Virginia to Missouri, north to Minnesota and Nunavut, east to Newfoundland, and south back to Virginia. Manuscripts based on field studies outside of this region that provide information on species within this region may be considered at the Editor’s discretion. The journal welcomes manuscripts based on observations and research focused on the biology of terrestrial, freshwater, and marine organisms and communities as it relates to their life histories and their function within, use of, and adaptation to the environment and the habitats in which they are found, as well as on the ecology and conservation of species and habitats. Such studies may encompass measurements, surveys, and/or experiments in the field, under lab conditions, or utilizing museum and herbarium specimens. Subject areas include, but are not limited to, anatomy, behavior, biogeography, biology, conservation, evolution, ecology, genetics, parasitology, physiology, population biology, and taxonomy. Strict lab, modeling, and simulation studies on natural history aspects of the region, without any field component, will be considered for publication as long as the research has direct and clear significance to field naturalists and the manuscript discusses these implications.
