Genetic population structure in horse chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum L.): effects of human-mediated expansion across Europe

2011-01-01

Abstract excerpt

The geographical distribution of existing populations of horse chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum L.) in Europe is determined by past demographic events during the Quaternary. In the present study we evaluate the imprints that northward expansions originated from common ancestry at southern Europe may have left on the present patterns of genetic variation for horse chestnut across the continent. Genetic diversity an...
