Isolation by distance in a population of a small land snail Trochoidea geyeri : evidence from direct and indirect methods [PDF]
Population structure was estimated in a continuous population of a small land snail (Trochoidea geyeri). Mark-recapture experiments and randomly amplified polymorphic DNA analyses indicate that the population structure can be described by the isolation ...

Genetic diversity and structure analysis of Croatian garlic collection assessed by SSR markers
This study examines genetic diversity and structure of a Croatian garlic germplasm collection using 13 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. A total of 71 alleles were observed across 64 accessions representing 3 Croatian regions (Istria, Dalmatia and ...

Population Structure and Cryptic Relatedness in Genetic Association Studies [PDF]
We review the problem of confounding in genetic association studies, which arises principally because of population structure and cryptic relatedness. Many treatments of the problem consider only a simple ``island'' model of population structure. We take

Does habitat stability structure intraspecific genetic diversity? It’s complicated... [PDF]
Regional phylogeographic studies have long been conducted in the southeastern United States for a variety of species. With some exceptions, many of these studies focus on single species or single clades of organisms, and those considering multiple ...
