Exploring the potential for climatic factors, herbivory, and co-occuring vegetation to shape performance in native and introduced populations of Verbascum thapsus

Original language description

We assessed performance in native and introduced populations of Verbascum thapsus, an herbaceous biennial introduced to the U.S. from Europe. We further explored how abiotic factors shape performance in European and U.S. populations, and quantified variation in herbivory and the potential for competition from co-occurring vegetation. When the influence of abiotic factors was not considered, introduced mullein performed better than native mullein in terms of plant density and plant size. When the influence of abiotic factors was taken into account, the difference in the density of native and introduced populations remained strong, while the difference in number of leaves was reduced. Controlling for abiotic factors reversed the pattern for plant area such that plants in introduced populations performed less well than natives. We found a reduction in several herbivore guilds on introduced relative to native mullein, and a decrease in chewing damage in introduced populations.
