Differential allocation to photosynthetic and non-photosynthetic nitrogen fractions among native and invasive species.
Invasive species are expected to cluster on the "high-return" end of the leaf economic spectrum, displaying leaf traits consistent with higher carbon assimilation relative to native species. Intra-leaf nitrogen (N) allocation should support these physiological differences; however, N bioch...
