Invasive plant Lupinus polyphyllus demonstrates high level of molecular genetic variation within and between populations at East European Plain.

ABSTRACT: Genetic polymorphism of alien species in their secondary ranges is an important evidence of invasive process course. In this paper, we studied a molecular genetic variation of Lupinus polyphyllus Lindl. at geographically extensive material from different parts of its secondary distribution range at East European Plain and a contribution of L. polyphyllus to natural vegetation there. Genetic variation was studied on nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer sequences ITS1-2, chloroplast intergenic spacer rpl32-trnL sequences, and on inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers. ITS1-2 sequences were non-informative markers of intra-species variability for L. polyphyllus. In the phylogenetic tree on the base of chloroplast rpl32-trnL sequences no geographical trend was revealed among and
