Plant responses to changes in temperature can be a key factor predicting the presence and managing invasive plant species while conserving resident native dryland ecosystems. Climate influence germination, establishment, seedling biomass of both species. We tested hypothesis that common widely distributed an ecosystems California respond differently increasing temperatures. To test this, we examined effects variation on per capita three one ( Bromus rubens ) independent 6 week growth trial experiments controlled greenhouse. Higher relative temperatures reduced germination establishment two species, however, was not significantly affected. Specifically, B. Phacelia tanacetifolia reduced. This often outcompete natives, but could potentially shift balance between natives. A warming climate will likely have negative impacts annual here because co-occur with drought. study shows our some resilience relatively significant increases temperature, this favor at least highly noxious
