. After leaving the Fish & Wildlife Service, you land a job as a botanist on islands off the coast of California. You are studying an endangered plant species that only grows there and nowhere else in the world. You find these plants are outcompeted by an introduced species from Europe. One reason native plants are declining is that the invasive plants absorb nitrogen from the soil about twice as fast (α = 2). How low must you reduce this competition coefficient to enable the native species to persist? Assume that the native species has no competitive effect of the invasive species (β= 0).
