Wani, Manzoor Ahmad ShahNewcastle upon Tyne, England :Cambridge Scholars Publishing,[2020]©20201 online resource (133 pages)1-5275-5214-4 The invasion of ecosystems by alien species is a key driver of global environmental change and many invasive plant species attain sufficiently high abundance to alter the structure and function of an ecosystem. This book is the first publication to explain the reasons as to why some alien species undergo a profound shift in their ecological fortune from being minor components of their native ecosystems to becoming devastating dominants of non-native habitats. The book assesses the ecological, morphological, functional and genetic factors that contribute to invasion success.Introduced organismsInvasive plantsGeneticsMolecular biologyPlant ecologyIntroduced organisms.Invasive plantsGenetics.Molecular biology.Plant ecology.578.62Wani Gowher A.1595207Shah Manzoor AhmadMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910828442403321The eco-physiological and genetic basis of invasiveness3916044UNINA
