“…Wild radish has successfully colonized a variety of locations, leading to its naturalization on all continents except Antarctica (Holm, Doll, Holm, Pancho, & Herberger, ), and it is often a major agricultural weed (Sahli, Conner, Shaw, Howe, & Lale, ; Warwick & Francis, ). Studies on the geographic distribution of the genetic variability and morphological traits of wild radish have shown that divergence between populations does not correspond to a geographic pattern that can be attributed to isolation distance (Barnaud, Kalwij, McGeoch, & van Vuuren, ; Kercher & Conner, ; Sahli et al, ; Tokunaga & Ohnishi, ). Kercher and Conner () have suggested three possible explanations for this observation: (a) wild radish self‐incompatibility promotes gene flow, (b) radish seeds can disperse over long distances, and (c) introgression occurs from the cultivated radish ( R. sativus ).…”
