Over the last three decades, mitochondrial DNA has been the most popular marker of
molecular diversity, for a combination of technical ease‐of‐use considerations, and …

In nearly all eukaryotes, at least some individuals inherit mitochondrial and chloroplast
genes from only one parent. There is no single mechanism of uniparental inheritance …

This completely revised, fourth edition of Introduction to Plant Population Biology continues
the approach taken by its highly successful predecessors. Ecological and genetic principles …

Given the explosive development of new molecular marker techniques over the last decade,
newcomers and experts alike in the field of DNA fingerprinting will find an easy-to-follow …

Plants offer excellent models to investigate how gene flow shapes the organization of
genetic diversity. Their three genomes can have different modes of transmission and will …

The restriction patterns of two chloroplast fragments and one mitochondrial DNA fragment,
amplified by PCR with universal primers, were studied to determine the mode of inheritance …

Simple sequence repeats (SSRs), consisting of tandemly repeated multiple copies of mono-,
di-, tri-, or tetranucleotide motifs, are ubiquitous in eukaryotic genomes and are frequently …

Recent models and analyses of paleoecological records suggest that tree populations are
capable of rapid migration when climate warms. Fossil pollen is commonly interpreted as …

Cytoplasmic organelles are inherited in a nonMendelian fashion in all eukaryotic organisms
investigated. Among the seed plants, plastids can be inherited strictly from the female …

Molecular data have had a profound impact on the field of plant systematics, and the
application of DNA-sequence data to phylogenetic problems is now routine. The majority of …
