Human Fragmentation Effects Are Genetically Detectable After 6 Years in an Island-Endemic Plant. [PDF]
We provide direct evidence that anthropogenic infrastructures such as reservoirs and expressways have been capable of increasing genetic differentiation and, thus, modifying the phylogeographical pattern of Primulina heterotricha in just a six‐year period (two generations of the plant). ABSTRACT Anthropogenic disturbances have long been acknowledged to
