Environmental factors contribute to the formation and maintenance of the contact zone observed in deciduous broad-leaved tree species in Japan.

Journal of plant research - 1 Jul 2015

Tono Akitaka, Iwasaki Takaya, Seo Akihiro, Murakami Noriaki

Abstract excerpt

Contact zones are defined as areas where populations from different refugia meet during a postglacial expansion and distinct DNA lineages are mixedly distributed. In Japan, contact zones of various plants and animals were reported from the Kinki-Chugoku region. These contact zones appear to be maintained without any drastic topographic barriers such as those observed in the Alps and Pyrenees Mountains. In this...
