Factors influencing levels of genetic diversity in woody plant species
TL;DR: Woody species with large geographic ranges, outcrossing breeding systems, and wind or animal-ingested seed dispersal have more genetic diversity within species and populations but less variation among populations than woodyspecies with other combinations of traits.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hybridization as a stimulus for the evolution of invasiveness in plants
TL;DR: This model does not represent the only evolutionary pathway to invasiveness, but is clearly an underappreciated mechanism worthy of more consideration in explaining the evolution ofInvasiveness in plants.

Evolutionary significance of local genetic differentiation in plants
Yan B. Linhart,Michael C. Grant +1 more
TL;DR: The study of natural plant populations has provided some of the strongest and most convincing cases of the operation of natural selection currently known, partly because of amenability to reciprocal transplant experiments, common garden work, and long-term in situ manipulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Most species are not driven to extinction before genetic factors impact them
TL;DR: Differences in heterozygosity indicate lowered evolutionary potential, compromised reproductive fitness, and elevated extinction risk in the wild in threatened species.

Hybridization as a stimulus for the evolution of invasiveness in plants
TL;DR: This model does not represent the only evolutionary pathway to invasiveness, but is clearly an underappreciated mechanism worthy of more consideration in explaining the evolution ofinvasiveness in plants.

Evolution and the Theory of Games
TL;DR: A modification of the theory of games, a branch of mathematics first formulated by Von Neumann and Morgenstern in 1944 for the analysis of human conflicts, was proposed in this paper.
