Description Disturbance and biotic resistance are important factors driving plant invasions but how these factors interact for plants with different modes of colonization (i.e., sexual and asexual) is unclear.

We (1) conducted a survey of naturally occurring small-scale disturbances (removal of vegetation and/or sediment deposition) across four...
