چکیده انگلیسی
Sericea lespedeza has been an important forage legume in portions of the USA for decades but has recently been recognized as invasive in some ecosystems. Stand characteristics potentially affecting usefulness and invasiveness were assessed on forested and open sites of a Louisiana Coastal Plain landscape. Typical heavy weed competition, which was not overcome by increased seeding rate or extent of seedbed preparation, occurred in full sunlight. An open longleaf pine canopy suppressed competitive herbaceous species and enhanced establishment compared to that in full sunlight. Shade of either longleaf pines or dense overstory of tall weeds reduced productivity but not stands. Sericea lespedeza spread was limited to a few meters during 7 years, apparently due to lack of an effective dispersal mechanism. Long stand life under mature longleaf pines and in the open field along with ability to re-colonize from soil seed reserves contribute to both usefulness of sericea lespedeza for conservation, forage, and wildlife habitat in agricultural landscapes and potential undesired persistence, especially with land-use changes to less intensive management, on Louisiana Coastal Plain landscapes.
