Abstract excerpt

A hierarchical system, consisting of several levels of genetic divergence, is formed by distribution of genetic distances between diploid taxa of the green toad species complex (subspecies Bufo viridis viridis--B. v. turanensis and species B. viridis--B. sp.) and taxa representing western (B. vir...
