Holarctic phylogeography of an asexual species complex – II. Allozymic variation and clonal structure in Arctic Daphnia
Previous mitochondrial (mt)DNA sequencing and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) studies have shown that the Holarctic Daphnia pulex complex is divisible into two major groups ( pulicaria and tenebrosa ) that exhibit distinct phylogeographic patterns. Here we examine allozymic variation...
