Diversity and Genetic Structure of <i>Dioon holmgrenii</i> (Cycadales: Zamiaceae) in the Mexican Pacific Coast Biogeographic Province: Implications for Conservation
<i>Dioon holmgrenii</i> De Luca, Sabato et Vázq.Torres is an endangered species; it is endemic and its distribution is restricted to the biogeographic province of the Mexican Pacific Coast. The aim of this work was to determine the diversity and genetic structure of nine populations. The...

<i>Dioon holmgrenii</i> De Luca, Sabato et Vázq.Torres is an endangered species; it is endemic and its distribution is restricted to the biogeographic province of the Mexican Pacific Coast.

The genetic structure was determined by using the <i>Structure</i> software and by a discriminant analysis. The genetic diversity of the populations was high.
