Biogeography of a plant invasion: plant–herbivore interactions

JT Cronin, GP Bhattarai, WJ Allen, LA Meyerson - Ecology, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
Theory predicts that native plant species should exhibit latitudinal gradients in the strength of
their interactions with herbivores. We hypothesize that if an invasive plant species exhibits a …

Tracing the origin of Gulf Coast Phragmites (Poaceae): A story of long‐distance dispersal and hybridization

C Lambertini, IA Mendelssohn… - American Journal of …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
• Premise of the study: Long‐distance dispersal can affect speciation processes in two
opposing ways. Dispersal can promote geographic isolation or it can bring together …

Genetic diversity, reproductive mode, and dispersal differ between the cryptic invader, Phragmites australis, and its native conspecific

KM Kettenring, KE Mock - Biological invasions, 2012 - Springer
Genetic diversity and reproductive mode can control whether an introduced species
becomes invasive. Here we use genetic tools to compare the non-native, invasive …
