Hybridization, polyploidy and invasion: lessons from Spartina (Poaceae) (2009, background): “…such as the allopolyploids Tragopogon mirus and T. miscellus (goatsbeard) in North America (Novak et al. 1991; Soltis et al. 2004), Senecio cambrensis (Welsh ragwort) and S. eboracencis in UK (Abbott and Lowe 2004), and Cardamine schulzii (bittercress) in central Europe (Urbanska et al. 1997).”
Genome downsizing in polyploid plants (2004, background): “Polyploidy is a key factor in higher plant evolution leading to the formation of new species (cf. Abbott & Lowe, 2004; Ainouche, Baumel & Salmon, 2004; Soltis et al ., 2004 – all this issue).”
Asexual spread versus sexual reproduction and evolution in Japanese Knotweed s.l. sets the stage for the “Battle of the Clones” (2009, background): “Such hybridisations, if possible, would add another dimension to the Japanese Knotweed story, since some of the most significant amphiploid speciation events have involved an alien and a native, i.e. Spartina anglica and Senecio cambrensis (Raybould et al. 1991; Abbott and Lowe 2004).”
The role of hybridization in plant speciation. (2009, background): “Several plant species have originated via polyploidy within just the past 150 years: Spartina anglica (6, 7, 76, 116, 117) (Figure 3), Senecio cambrensis (Figure 4) and S. eboracensis (1, 163), Cardamine schultzii (207), and Tragopogon mirus and T. miscellus (139, 183) (Figure 5).”
Spartina anglica C. E. Hubbard: a natural model system for analysing early evolutionary changes that affect allopolyploid genomes. (2004, unknown): “This was also the case for the recent allohexaploid Senecio cambrensis that has formed after 1910 in England, where at least two independent origins have been reported in Wales and Scotland (Ashton & Abbott, 1992; Harris & Ingram, 1992; Abbott & Lowe, 2004 – this issue).”
Molecular mechanisms of polyploidy and hybrid vigor (2010, background): “In Senecio, the number of differentially expressed genes between the natural and synthetic allopolyploids can be as high as ∼60% [81], although some of which could be related to genotypic differences between synthetic and natural allopolyploids.”
Plant invasions: merging the concepts of species invasiveness and community invasibility (2006, background): “…(1985), much recent research has explored the role of the evolution of polyploidy in facilitating invasions – eg, for Brassicaceae (Hurka et al., 2003), Impatiens glandulifera (Kollmann and Banuelos, 2004), Rubus alceifolius (Amsellem et al., 2001), and Senecio cambrensis (Abbott and Lowe, 2004).”
