Callery pear population genetics study
Clemson University and University of Tennessee, 2019
We are examining the population genetics of the callery pear across the range of this invasive species. Can you help collect samples? Thank you!!
Callery pear is one of the most rapidly-spreading invasive plants in the eastern U.S. This plant stems from cultivars of ornamental pears, most commonly the Bradford pear. Callery pear can have long thorns, and grows singly or in thick patches in old fields, roadsides, or forested areas.
