• Phenotypic plasticity rather than locally adapted ecotypes allows the invasive alligator weed to colonize a wide range of habitats (2007, unknown): “The extremely low levels of genetic variation is probably attributed to the founder effect and the rarity of sexual recombination (Xu et al. 2003) that are congruent with the previous results (Xu et al. 2003; Ye et al. 2003).”
• Epigenetics for ecologists. (2007, background): “…Japanese knotweed (Fallopia japonica) or fountain grass (Pennisetum setaceum) do not, in spite of their broad ecological distribution, appear to possess any genetic variation in their introduced ranges (Hollingsworth & Bailey 2000; Xu et al. 2003; Mandák et al. 2005; Le Roux et al. 2007).”
