A Trojan horse inside the gates: Alien-native mating interactions in mixed populations of Solidago taxa. [PDF]
DAPI flow cytometry identified post‐invasion processes—hybridisation, introgression, and polyploidization—in mixed populations of Solidago canadensis, S. virgaurea and S. ×niederederi. Abstract The establishment and possible impacts of alien–native hybrids depend on their formation frequency and ability to spread using generative and vegetative ...
