Extended leaf phenology and the autumn niche in deciduous forest invasions

A 3-year study of 73 deciduous understory species from the Eastern USA shows that non-native species retain leaf function 4 weeks longer into autumn than natives, which may be shifting seasonal patterns of forest carbon and nutrient dynamics.
