Minimal genetic diversity in the facultatively outcrossing perennial pepperweed (Lepidium latifolium) invasion

2012-09-01

Abstract excerpt

Perennial pepperweed (Lepidium latifolium L.) is a Eurasian plant species that is invasive in North America. The invasion often forms large, dense monocultural stands. We investigated the genetic diversity along transects in dense populations in the western USA using Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphisms. We also analyzed transect collections from the native Eurasian range for comparison. In addition, we conduct...
