Unravelling the paradox of loss of genetic variation during invasion: superclones may explain the success of a clonal invader.
Clonality is a common characteristic of successful invasive species, but general principles underpinning the success of clonal invaders are not established. A number of mechanisms could contribute to invasion success including clones with broad tolerances and preferences, specialist clones and adapt...
