摘 要:Background Hedera helix *** an invasive weed species introduced in several regions of the world,so it is relevant to study its effects on the plant community and the changes occurring after its *** established invaded(with/without removal of ***)and non-invaded(with/without removal of the understory)plots to compare some community attributes in an oak forest in Mexico City and monitored them every 2 months for 1 year,taking soil samples to compare some edaphic variables between the *** invasive species negatively affect natural regenera-tion,seedlings of native species would be less abundant in plots invaded by *** than in the non-invaded *** invasive species modify the soil microbiota through exudates and often allelochemicals,soil chemical variables would differ between invaded and non-invaded *** The abundance of native species was lower in the invaded plots,but the richness and diversity of species were not statistically *** composition of the two invaded plots was similar to each other and more alike to that of the non-invaded *** species composition of the invaded plots was associated with soil potassium and phosphorus concentrations,whereas that of the non-invaded plots was more associated with soil nitrogen *** Following the removal of ***,several native species were registered,leading to a similar species composition as in the non-invaded plots,suggesting that some vegetation recovery can be expected following *** removal in 1 year.
