Abstract excerpt
Genetic structuring in response to the glacial cycles has been investigated for many plant species, but exclusively high-arctic ones have not been studied. Such extremely cold-adapted species have probably experienced range reductions under the present climate. Here we compare three predominantly selfing species of Draba with different distributions and hardiness (D. subcapitata, high-arctic; D. nivalis, arctic...
