Which outcome occurs when invasive plant species outcompete native plants, altering nitrogen cycling?

💡 Explanation

When invasive plants dominate, altered plant litter composition affects soil microbial communities impacting nitrogen mineralization rates, leading to nitrogen limitation that decreases Rubisco carboxylation efficiency. Therefore decreased Rubisco carboxylation, rather than mycorrhizal associations, carbon sequestration, or denitrification results which depend on nitrogen availability and specific microbial activity.
