Flea beetles of alligator weed, Alternanthera philoxeroides (Martius) Grisebach (Amaranthaceae), were collected in Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, and Brazil. Species in the genera Disonycha Chevrolat, Agasicles Jacoby, ...
Cytogenetic effect of Alternanthera philoxeroides (alligator weed) on Agasicles hygrophila (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) in its native range
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2011-05)
Plant genotypic effects can alter insects' ability of utilizing their host plant. Alligator weed, Alternanthera philoxeroides, is a South American amphibious Amaranthaceae, which invades aquatic and terrestrial habitats. ...
The relative importance of genetic diversity and phenotypic plasticity in determining invasion success of a clonal weed in the USA and China
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2016-02)
Phenotypic plasticity has been proposed as an important adaptive strategy for clonal plants in heterogeneous habitats. Increased phenotypic plasticity can be especially beneficial for invasive clonal plants, allowing them ...
Rapid evolution of latitudinal clines in growth and defence of an invasive weed
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-02)
Re-establishment of heritable latitudinal clines in growth-related traits has been recognised as evidence for adaptive evolution in invasive plants. However, less information is known about latitudinal clines in defence ...
