Evidence for hybridization and introgression within a species-rich oak (Quercus spp.) community.

BMC evolutionary biology - 10 Nov 2007

Curtu Alexandru L, Gailing Oliver, Finkeldey Reiner

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Analysis of interspecific gene flow is crucial for the understanding of speciation processes and maintenance of species integrity. Oaks (genus Quercus, Fagaceae) are among the model species for the study of hybridization. Natural co-occurrence of four closely related oak species is a very rare case in the temperate forests of Europe. We used both morphological characters and genetic markers to...
