Morphological variability of invasive species Ambrosia artemisiifolia L. (Asterales, Asteraceae) on the important transit areas.

Investigations and distribution monitoring of invasive species in Vojvodina are mainly based on the degree of natural and agricultural ecosystems decreasing by invasive alien plants. The studies that are omitted are biology of alien species, their adaptive mechanisms and physiology in order to find answers related to their accomplishments on the new habitat. For those reasons, samples in this study were taken from different habitat types to get final data about mechanical treatment as a tool for eradication of Ambrosia artemisiifolia L., depending on different habitats type, and to provide data for developing of effective measurements. The results are analyzed by descriptive and multivariate statistics. Conducted investigations have shown that in some, especially the poorer soil types, species A. artemisiifolia shows extraordinary capabilities of adaptation in terms of survival and biomass production.
