Genetic diversity of the tropical tree Terminalia amazonia (Combretaceae) in naturally fragmented populations.

Heredity - 1 Sept 2003

Pither R, Shore J S, Kellman M

Abstract excerpt

The effect of long-term fragmentation on the genetic diversity of populations of the neotropical tree species, Terminalia amazonia, was studied using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis. Leaf material from 104 trees was collected from three naturally fragmented gallery forest patches and three plots in nearby continuous forest in the Mountain Pine Ridge, Belize. In total, 30 RAPD bands generated by...
