Intricate variation patterns in the diploid-polyploid complex of Alyssum montanum-A. repens (Brassicaceae) in the Apennine Peninsula: evidence for long-term persistence and diversification.

Abstract excerpt

PREMISE OF THE STUDY: The Apennine Peninsula, one of the three peninsulas of the European Mediterranean, is an important hotspot of genetic and species diversity, but studies devoted to plant evolution are still very scarce in this region. We studied the diploid-polyploid complex of Alyssum montanum-A. repens, focusing on Apennine and adjacent southwestern Alpine populations from southeastern France, with the aim...
