With their variable microclimate, role as corridors for species movement and reoccurring disturbance events, they show several characteristics that might influence range dynamics of both native and non-native species. Previous research on plant species ranges in mountains however seldom included the effects of roads. To study how ranges of native and non-native species differ between roads and adjacent vegetation, we used a global dataset of plant species composition along mountain roads. We compared average elevation and range width of species, and used generalized linear mixed models (GLMMs) to compile their range optimum and amplitude. We then explored differences between roadside and adjacent plots based on a species’ origin (native vs non-native) and nitrogen and temperature affinity. Most non-native species had on average higher elevational ranges and broader amplitudes in roadsides. Higher optima for non-native species were associated with high nitrogen and temperature affinity. While lowland native species showed patterns comparable to those in non-native species, highland native species had significantly lower elevational ranges in roadsides compared to the adjacent vegetation. We conclude that roadsides indeed change the elevational ranges of a variety of species. These changes are not limited to the expansion of non-native species along mountain roads, but also include both upward and downward changes in ranges of native species. Roadsides may thus facilitate upward range shifts, for instance related to climate change, and they could serve as corridors to facilitate migration of alpine species between adjacent high-elevation areas. We recommend including the effects of mountain roads in species distribution models to fine-tune the predictions of range changes in a warming climate.

[CBNPMP-Thématique] RevégétalisationRésumé : Mountains are hotspots for biodiversity and of great importance to human societies. The worldwide placement of mountain areas in conservation reserves is recognition of their value. Managers have to remain vigilant to protect mountain ecosystems from future threats. One such threat is invasive, non-native plants. Invasive plants alter plant communities, affect grazing lands and homogenise the world’s flora. Mountain areas have not been as intensely affected by plant invasions as low elevations because of harsh climatic conditions, isolation and limited human pressure. The relative resistance of mountain ecosystems to plant invasions may be transient, however, in light of ongoing global change (e.g. climate change, expansion of human pressures). Unique mountain flora, fauna and habitats may become increasingly susceptible to invasions.
