Fine-scale spatial genetic dynamics over the life cycle of the tropical tree Prunus africana.

Heredity - 1 Nov 2014

Abstract excerpt

Studying fine-scale spatial genetic patterns across life stages is a powerful approach to identify ecological processes acting within tree populations. We investigated spatial genetic dynamics across five life stages in the insect-pollinated and vertebrate-dispersed tropical tree Prunus africana in Kakamega Forest, Kenya. Using six highly polymorphic microsatellite loci, we assessed genetic diversity and spatial...
