Patterns of nucleotide diversity at the methionine synthase locus in fragmented and continuous populations of a wind-pollinated tree, Quercus mongolica var. crispula.

Abstract excerpt

Genetic variation is usually high within populations, and differentiation is usually low among populations of wind-pollinated outcrossing trees. As a result, population contraction causes little change in the degree of genetic diversity and differentiation among populations. The aim of this work was to determine whether or not a recent population decline has influenced the allele frequency spectrum and...
