Does hybrid Phragmites australis differ from native and introduced lineages in reproductive, genetic, and morphological traits?
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "American journal of botany"
DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.1217
Abstract: PREMISE OF THE STUDY Hybridization between previously isolated species or lineages can stimulate invasiveness because of increased genetic diversity and inherited traits facilitating competitive and reproductive potential. We evaluated differences in stand characteristics and sexual… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.2820
Abstract: Abstract Weedy species provide excellent opportunities to examine the process of successful colonization of novel environments. Despite the influence of the sexual system on a variety of processes from reproduction to genetic structure, how the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.5036
Abstract: Abstract Niche overlap between native species and ecologically similar invaders can lead to competitive exclusion of threatened native species, but if two such species also co‐occur naturally elsewhere, interactions between native and introduced populations may… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00436-018-6022-4
Abstract: Introduced Siberian chipmunks Eutamias sibiricus have been reported to be important reservoirs for human Lyme disease, as they may host high numbers of hard ticks carrying Borrelia spp. and other pathogens. In the present study,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10530-021-02622-4
Abstract: Intraspecific variation in growth and defence among plant populations can be driven by differences in (a)biotic conditions, such as herbivory and resources. Introduction of species to novel environments affects simultaneously herbivory encountered by a plant… read more here.
