Abstract
Soil nitrogen effects on the growth characteristics of alien invasive plant Bidens pilosa L.were studied by greenhouse pot experiment.The result indicated that added definite soil nitrogen were favorable to increase the number of leaf and branch,total leaf area(TLA),total biomass and relative growth rate(RGR)of B.pilosa.In the meantime,increased soil nitrogen could facilitate the weed assign more material to the organs on the ground,especially enhance the flower biomass rate significantly,and decrease the material assigned to the roots under ground.Phenotypic plasticity index indicated that in the case of morphological parameters,biomass allocation parameters and reproduction organ more phenotypic plasticity the weed presented on response to the soil nitrogen.All results above demonstrated that the weed B.pilosa had more grater invasion and adaptability to the soil nitrogen,which suggested that definite attention should be paid to the work of the weed prevention and management.
