Abstract excerpt
Diversity patterns of the dioecious haploid Mediterranean moss Pleurochaete squarrosa were analysed from Central and Northwest Europe using nuclear and chloroplast DNA sequencing and enzyme electrophoresis. Across 69 populations, 38 distinct haploid multilocus genotypes (MLGs) were detected, but nearly all populations were clonal. Only five MLGs occurred in more than two regions, and two diversity hotspots were...
