Phragmites Diagnostic Service

We are now offering a free diagnostic service to determine whether a particular stand/clone of P. australis is a native or an introduced haplotype. We will use morphological characters to determine this status. We can accept shipments of material throughout the year. However, this service is restricted to clones/stands found in North America.

Please follow the guidelines for collection and submission of biological material and for reporting of sampling locations.

Please use the format of degrees, minutes and seconds. Please convert your UTM coordinates or decimal degrees to this format, otherwise we are loosing accuracy in locating the patch on a map or have to make complicated conversion from different UTM coordinates. This is easiest done on your end.
