Morphology delimits more species than molecular genetic clusters of invasive Pilosella.

Abstract excerpt

UNLABELLED: • PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Accurate assessments of biodiversity are paramount for understanding ecosystem processes and adaptation to change. Invasive species often contribute substantially to local biodiversity; correctly identifying and distinguishing invaders is thus necessary to assess their potential impacts. We compared the reliability of morphology and molecular sequences to discriminate six...
