Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The genetic variation and divergence estimated by allozyme analysis were used to reveal the evolutionary history of Castanopsis carlesii in Taiwan. Two major questions were discussed concerning evolutionary issues: where are the diversity centres, and where are the most genetically divergent sites in Taiwan? METHODS: Twenty-two populations of C. carlesii were sampled throughout Taiwan. Starch...
