Increased genetic differentiation but no reduced genetic diversity in peripheral vs. central populations of a steppe grass.

American journal of botany - 1 Jul 2011

Wagner Viktoria, Durka Walter, Hensen Isabell

Abstract excerpt

PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Intraspecific genetic variation is essential for the performance and evolution of species. Populations at a species' geographic range periphery receive considerable attention in biogeography and conservation because they are smaller and spatially more isolated than central populations, a pattern expected to lead to higher genetic differentiation and lower within-population genetic diversity....
