Abstract excerpt
Population genetics data based on multiple nuclear loci provide invaluable information to understand demographic, selective, and divergence histories of the current species. We studied nucleotide variation at 13 nuclear loci in 53 populations distributed among four closely related, but morphologically distinct juniper species of the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP). We used a novel approach combining Approximate...
