How Does Genomic Variation Evolve in Asexual Populations After an Invasion Event?

Published in Washington State University library, 2021

‘This thesis aimed to address the genetic paradox of invasion using a non-model organism (the New Zealand Mudsnail). We compared the genetic diversity of invasion North American populations to see if that could account for their successful invasive history. Interestingly, we found some evidence of genetic differentiation between populations despite these populations sharing a recent common invasion history and clonal lineage.’
