Abstract:Invasive species are of increasing concern to the local biodiversity and ecology as the magnitude of biological invasions is increasing globally. The genetic structures of newly established invasive populations may reveal insights towards the invasion processes, making population genetics an important tool for understanding current invasions. Here we study newly established populations (<10-20 years before first sampling) of the cosmopolitan alien ascidian Botryllus schlosseri in four Puget Sound (Washington, … Show more
