Incorporating latitudinal and central-marginal trends in assessing genetic variation across species ranges.

Abstract excerpt

The genetic variation across a species' range is an important factor in speciation and conservation, yet searching for general patterns and underlying causes remains challenging. While the majority of comparisons between central and marginal populations have revealed a general central-marginal (C-M) decline in genetic diversity, others show no clear pattern. Similarly, most latitudinal studies (although much...
