To elucidate the ecological mechanisms underlying the coexistence of two sympatric invasive species,Xanthium strumanum subsp.italicum and X.spinosum,through differentiation in photosynthetic-water utilization strategies,this study was conducted at Hailiu Reservoir in Inner Mongolia.The experimental design included establishing equidistant sampling plots from nearshore to offshore,encompassing monospecific stands(single-species dominant communities)and mixed communities.Leaf photosynthetic diurnal dynamics(net photosynthetic rate Pn,transpiration rate Tr,and stomatal conductance Gs)were measured using a Li-6800 photosynthesis system,and spatial autocorrelation analysis of soil water content was used to construct species distribution and water response curves.Key findings showed that:1)X. strumarium subsp. italicum exhibited a "bimodal" photosynthetic curve,with a maximum Pn of 47.91 μmol/(m2·s).This rate is 178.5% higher compared to that of X.spinosum[17.2 μmol/(m2·s)]and was associated with lower midday photoinhibition.In contrast,X.spinosum achieved a higher photosynthetic rate during morning hours,enabling it to seize an advantage in carbon assimilation early in the day.2)X.strumarium subsp. italicum dominated high-moisture habitats(>20.4%),while X.spinosum prevailed in arid zones(<12.7%),with coexistence occurring within a threshold interval of 14.8%-18.3%.3)X. strumarium subsp. italicum showed linearly increasing WUE with moisture(R2=0.83),indicative of water-conservative strategies,whereas X.spinosum displayed a WUE peak shift at a moisture level of 16.5%,regulated by stomatal oscillation.These results demonstrate that the two invaders achieve niche complementarity through "high photosynthetic efficiency/high transpiration" resource partitioning strategies,with their "photosynthetic-hydrological niche complementarity" mechanism providing a physiological basis for synergistic invasion.The findings offer critical insights for precision management of invasive plants in arid reservoir ecosystems.
