The invasion of plants into a new environment is anexample of succession in action and an experiment on the role of speciesin communities. In the following chapters we bring together theory andapplication to focus on both what the study of introduced plants revealsaboutecologicalprocessesandwhatecologicalprocessesmightbeappliedto management programs. We consider how community and populationecology can be brought to bear on the topic of invasive plants.
