Genetic variation in remnant Festuca hallii populations is weakly differentiated, but geographically associated across the Canadian Prairie

2009-12-01

Abstract excerpt

Genetic diversity is essential for predicting plant evolutionary potential and for formulating conservation strategies. However, little is known about the genetic variation of plains rough fescue [Festuca hallii (Vasey) Piper], a widespread and diagnostic grass in the Fescue Prairie. We used the amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) technique to assess the genetic variation of 30 fragmented populations of...
