Abstract excerpt
Norway spruce of northern Europe expanded at the end of the last glacial out of one refugium in Russia. To provide a detailed insight into how the genetic structure in the northern European lineage of this species has been shaped by postglacial migration, recurrent pollen flow and marginality, we here compare variation at seven highly variable nuclear microsatellite loci in 37 populations (1715 trees) with...
