Cultivated fields and forests in South China are experiencing serious damage due to invasive alien plants.We investigated the relation between DNA C-values and invasiveness.The DNA C-values of 23 species ranged from 0.39 pg to Mug 3.

37 pg.Herbs, perennials and native species had higher mean DNA C-values Custom Cushion than shrubs, annuals and invasive alien species.DNA C-values decreased with increasing invasiveness.Paederia scandens, a harmful native species, has the lowest DNA C-value among the perennials, indicating that native species with low nuclear content may also possess an invasive potential.
