Abstract excerpt
We investigated clonal diversity within patches of Ilex leucoclada and genetic variation within and among patches using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers in a 1-ha plot within an old-growth beech forest. We found 38 patches that exhibited a clumped distribution in the middle of the plot. We identified a total of 166 RAPD phenotypes among the 215 stems sampled from 27 patches that were completely...
