A cross-city molecular biogeographic investigation of arbuscular mycorrhizas in Conyza canadensis rhizosphere across native and non-native regions

摘要

Introduction The ecological processes underlying the suppressive impacts of invasive species on native species diversity, both above- and below-ground, in non-native regions are not well understood. We therefore aimed to investigate the cross-city biogeographic patterns of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) diversity in Conyza canadensis rhizosphere in native (North American) and non-native (Kashmir Himalayan) regions.
