Patterns of genetic variation across altitude in three plant species of semi-dry grasslands.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2012

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Environmental gradients caused by altitudinal gradients may affect genetic variation within and among plant populations and inbreeding within populations. Populations in the upper range periphery of a species may be important source populations for range shifts to higher altitude in response to climate change. In this study we investigate patterns of population genetic variation at upper peripheral...
