Abstract excerpt
The wild flowering cherry Prunus lannesiana var. speciosa is highly geographically restricted, being confined to the Izu Islands and neighboring peninsulas in Japan. In an attempt to elucidate how populations of this species have established we investigated the genetic diversity and differentiation in seven populations (sampling 408 individuals in total), using three kinds of genetic markers: chloroplast DNA...
