Population genetics of purple saxifrage (Saxifraga oppositifolia) in the high Arctic archipelago of Svalbard

Using DNA markers and sequencing we investigated patterns of genetic variability in purple saxifrage, Saxifraga oppositifolia in the isolated Arctic Svalbard archipelago. Purple saxifrage is a circumpolar, ecologically and morphologically variable species with a wide range of habitats. Population ge...
