Levels of genetic polymorphism: marker loci versus quantitative traits.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences - 28 Feb 1998

Butlin R K, Tregenza T

Abstract excerpt

Species are the units used to measure ecological diversity and alleles are the units of genetic diversity. Genetic variation within and among species has been documented most extensively using allozyme electrophoresis. This reveals wide differences in genetic variability within, and genetic distances among, species, demonstrating that species are not equivalent units of diversity. The extent to which the pattern...
