Abstract
Impatiens glandulifera is an alien species listed among the Top-100 invasive species in Russia. We studied five populations of I. glandulifera from several protected natural areas in Moscow: Moskvoretsky and Tushinsky parks, Bitsevsky and Izmaylovsky forest parks, and the valley of the Chermyanka River. Based on the analysis of the intergenic non-coding spacer of the chloroplast DNA (trnV-ndhC), the Moscow samples were divided into three haplotypes, demonstrating a high degree of polymorphism. High polymorphism is characteristic of invasive individuals with an extensive secondary range and high invasive potential. ISSR analysis revealed that the studied samples were most likely introduced to Moscow from three different source populations. However, the origin of the individuals assumed from the ISSR data does not correspond to their chloroplast haplotypes.
