Other claims from this paper (8)
- Association Older forest herb populations had higher observed heterozygosity than younger ones.
- Association Anemone nemorosa had higher allelic richness and expected heterozygosity in younger populations.
- Association As populations aged, pairwise genetic differentiation measured by D PS decreased.
- Association G" ST showed comparable levels between old and young populations.
- Observation cGD was inconsistent among the three species.
- Association The age difference of the two populations did not explain their genetic differentiation.
- Observation Populations of different ages can reach a similar genetic structure within decades.
- Observation The three studied species exhibited partly similar genetic patterns.
