Genetic diversification, vicariance, and selection in a polytypic frog.

The Journal of heredity - 1 Jan 2000

Robertson Jeanne M, Zamudio Kelly R

Abstract excerpt

Spatial patterns of heritable phenotypic diversity reflect the relative roles of gene flow and selection in determining geographic variation within a species. We quantified color differentiation and genetic divergence among 20 populations of the red-eyed tree frog (Agalychnis callidryas) in lower Central America. Phylogenetic analyses revealed 5 well-supported mitochondrial DNA clades, and we infer from our...
