Genetic Structure and Diversity of Dalbergia nigra from Brazilian Atlantic Forest Fragments
Dalbergia nigra is a long-living tree endemic to the Atlantic Rain Forest. Due to its high commercial value, this species has been widely exploited for timber production and is now endangered. It is widely known that understanding patterns of genetic structure is paramount for conserving threatened species.
