Abstract excerpt
The impact of intergenic recombination on the population genetics of plant mitochondrial genomes is unknown. In an effort to study this in the gynodioecious plant Silene vulgaris three-locus PCR/RFLP genotypes (based on the mitochondrial genes atpA, cox1, and cob) were determined for 239 individuals collected from 20 North American populations. Seventeen three-locus PCR/RFLP genotypes were found. Recombination...
