Abstract

The spread of invasive species into native ecosystems is believed to be the second alrgest cause of current lost biodiversity worldwilde, yet the underlying mechanisms of invasive outbreaks are still poorly known. The biological and genetic characteristics allowing Prunus serotina to increase both its population size adn area in the introduced range will be studied.
