Genetic diversity in Pueraria lobata (Fabaceae), an introduced, clonal invasive plant in the southeastern United States

Genetic diversity in Pueraria lobata (Fabaceae), an introduced, clonal invasive plant in the southeastern United States

Pueraria lobata (kudzu), a clonal, leguminous vine, is invading the southeastern United States at a rate of 50 000 ha per year. Genetic variability and clonal diversity were measured in 20 southeastern U.S. populations using 14 allozyme loci. Within its U.S. range, 92.9% of the loci were polymorphic...
