The postglacial history of Scots pine ( Pinus sylvestris L.) in western Europe: evidence from mitochondrial DNA variation
The geographical structure of mitochondrial (mt)DNA variants (mitotypes) was investigated in 38 western European populations of Scots pine Pinus sylvestris using restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of total DNA and a homologous cox1 probe. Three major mitotypes (designated a, b...
