An ideal weed: plasticity and invasiveness in Polygonum cespitosum.

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences - 1 Dec 2015

Sultan Sonia E, Matesanz Silvia

Abstract excerpt

The introduced Asian plant Polygonum cespitosum has only recently become invasive in northeastern North America, spreading into sunny as well as shaded habitats. We present findings from a multiyear case study of this ongoing species invasion, drawing on field environmental measurements, glasshouse plasticity and resurrection experiments, and molecular genetic (microsatellite) data. We focus in particular on...
