This microsatellite dataset was constructed using eight microsatellite loci with 270 individual samples, representing wild population of Euonymus fortunei in Ohio, Kentucky, Kansas, and Minnesota. Also represented are multiple individuals from several Euonymus cultivars and also wild E. alatus (burning bush) from Ohio. This database is published as Elam RJ and Culley TM (2023) Genetic Analysis of Invasive Spread of Euonymus fortunei (Wintercreeper), a Popular Ornamental Groundcover. Invasive Plant Science and Management.
Data generated from a survey of problematic plants (species and cultivars) identified in seven public gardens in the Midwestern United States and Canada. Included are: (1) List of 881 plant taxa identified as problematic in the seven different public gardens; cultivars are presented individually and not collapsed within species; (2) Collapsed list in which cultivars have been subsumed under plant species; (3) List of only cultivars identified as problematic.
List of plant species recognized as invasive in the Midwest Invasive Plant Network (MIPN), and either regulated or informational. Shown are their method of introduction (intentional vs. accidental), and if intentional, whether it be introduced by ornamental, erosion control, feed/fodder/crops, aquarium trade, and/or medicinal or culinary uses. This was determined from a review of online sources and the scientific literature, and comparison to the dissertation by Sarah Reichard (1994).
This is the raw data detailing the type of cleistogamy reported within 228 plant genera in 50 families in the scientific literature, as of October 2005. This data underlies the following study: Culley, Theresa M and Matthew R Klooster (2007) The cleistogamous breeding system: A review of its frequency, evolution, and ecology in angiosperms. The Botanical Review 73(1): 1-30.
