Abstract excerpt
Phyla scaberrima (Verbenaceae) is a herbaceous perennial species that is distributed from Mexico (center of origin) to Colombia, growing in forest and swamp edges or grasslands from sea level up to an altitude of 1800 m. The chemical properties and uses in popular medicine have drastically affected the population size of this species. In this study, we investigated genetic variability in populations of P....
