Abstract excerpt
Quercus petraea, Quercus pubescens and Quercus robur are closely related and interfertile white oaks native to Switzerland. The three species are known to share identical cpDNA haplotypes, which are indicative of the postglacial recolonization history of populations. Only two haplotypes are common in Switzerland. We compared variation of cpDNA and of isozymes in 28 oak populations from Switzerland in order to...
