Proximal causes of genetic variation between and within populations of rauli (Nothofagus nervosa)

Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA(RAPD)markers were used to assess the genetic diversity of 587 individuals, belonging to 22 populations of Nothofagus nervosa that were distributed through the Coastal (38°S to 41 °S) and Andes Mountains in Central-Southern Chile (36°S to 40°S). The objective of this...
