Intraspecific diversity in Raphidiopsis raciborskii: A key to its invasive success

a warming world: stable temperatures are more likely to increase invasion success. Strain selection and intraspecific diversity are important to the success of Raphidiopsis raciborskii blooms and experimental design (Xiao et al., 2017). Weithoff and Stefan also addressed the effect of strain selection and genetic diversity on R. raciborskii invasion success, via tests with single strains and a four-strain mix. Weithoff and Stefan's results clearly showed no advantage of genetic diversity compared with individual strains, which varied in their measures of success. This result highlights the critical importance of understanding intraspecific diversity and the variation between strains (see also Bolius et al., 2020). Raphidiopsis raciborskii is well known for its high intraspecific diversity, and the work presented by Weithoff and Stefan demonstrates how strain selection can influence experimental outcomes and
