Propagule pressure and genetic variation
Basic questions: What are the roles of genetic diversity and propagule pressure in invasive success? When does it diversity matter? How often is there outbreeding depression? Inbreeding depression? Can we develop specific demographic and evolutionary models that take into account admixture effects from single vs. multiple sources.
