Genetic structure of Rhododendron ferrugineum at a wide range of spatial scales
Article Abstract:
The objectives of the study were to examine the relationship between spatial and genetic distance at different geographic scales, to infer the scale at which equilibrium occurs, and to compare population structure at different angles to the slope of a mountain. The detection of such a correlation along local transects suggests the possibility of an equilibrium between gene flow and genetic drift below the scale of 2 km.

Spatial and genetic structure within populations of wild American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius L., Araliaceae)
Article Abstract:
Fine-scale genetic structure within eight wild populations of the medicinal plant American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius L.) from the Appalachian Mountains in the southeastern United States is analyzed. Variation in fine-scale genetic structure among populations in this study indicates that spatial patterning may not be closely associated with the distribution of genetic variation.
