Invasive earthworms can change understory plant community traits and reduce plant functional diversity
Summary: Among the most important impacts of biological invasions on biodiversity is biotic homogenization, which may further compromise key ecosystem processes. However, the extent to which they homogenize functional diversity and shift dominant ecological strategies of invaded communities remains...
