Gene flow in natural populations of Carica papaya in the fragmented landscapes at the southern end of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec

2026-06-18

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> Wild crop relatives are valuable genetic reservoirs for crop improvement because they may harbor alleles conferring disease resistance and environmental tolerance. A major threat to the genetic diversity of crop wild relatives is habitat fragmentation, which can isolate populations and reduce gene flow. <italic>Carica papaya</italic> L. is cultivated worldwide, yet wild populations...
