| Abstract | Introgressive hybridization or introgression is the transfer of gene between two distinct species by theproduction of viable fertile hybrids. 'Suthasinobon' is an introduced day-blooming waterlily identifiedas Nymphaea capensis var. zanzibariensis. Together with its selections and hybrids, they are known as'Suthsinobon' complex. Both 'Suthasinobon' and its complex are beautiful, aggressive plants and arepopular among Thai waterlily growers. They hybridize readily with other Nymphaea species in thesubgenus Brachyceras, including the only native day-blooming species, Nymphaea nouchali, known inThai as 'Bua Phan' and 'Bua Phuean' which are two forms of N. nouchali, and 'Bua Khap' - N. nouchalivar. cyanea. Evidences of introgression involving 'Suthasinobon' complex have been accumulated in thepresent study. The consequences of introgression are the breakdown of reproductive isolation, the lossof Thai native species of day-blooming waterlily, and the predominance of mongrels of partially hybridancestry closely resemble 'Suthasinobon' parent |
