Add to ORKGBackground and aims Through recruitment, plants establish in novel environments. Recruitment also is the stage where plants undergo the highest mortality. We investigate the recruitment niche for Microstegium vimineum, an annual grass from East Asia spreading throughout eastern North American forests. Methods Current observational and greenhouse re-search indicates that M. vimineum recruitment may be inhibited by leaf litter and promoted by soil mois-ture; we use field studies to experimentally test how these factors influence M. vimineum germination, seedling survival and reproduction. Specifically, we introduce M. vimineum seeds into forest microhabitats with experimentally varied levels of soil moisture and leaf litter. Results Soil mois...
