Invasion of a Legume Ecosystem Engineer in a Cold Biome Alters Plant Biodiversity by Vanessa M. S. Vetter, Vanessa M. S. Vetter, Nils B. Tjaden, Anja Jaeschke, Constanze Buhk, Veronika Wahl, Pawel Wasowicz, Anke Jentsch

“…The future increase of suitable lupine habitat might lead to the displacement of cold-adapted native plant species and will certainly challenge conservation as well as restoration of ecosystems in the cold climate of Iceland, but also elsewhere. Lupine invasion speeds up succession, which may be additive with climate change effects, and accelerates ecological change in cold biomes.…”
