Chloroplast DNA variation in European white oaks phylogeography and patterns of diversity based on data from over 2600 populations
A consortium of 16 laboratories have studied chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) variation in European white oaks. A common strategy for molecular screening, based on restriction analysis of four PCR-amplified… Expand
Identification of refugia and post-glacial colonisation routes of European white oaks based on chloroplast DNA and fossil pollen evidence
Abstract The geographic distribution throughout Europe of each of 32 chloroplast DNA variants belonging to eight white oak species sampled from 2613 populations is presented. Clear-cut geographic… Expand
Evidence for hybridization and introgression within a species-rich oak (Quercus spp.) community
- A. L. Curtu, O. Gailing, R. Finkeldey
- Biology, Medicine
- BMC Evolutionary Biology
- 10 November 2007
BackgroundAnalysis of interspecific gene flow is crucial for the understanding of speciation processes and maintenance of species integrity. Oaks (genus Quercus, Fagaceae) are among the model species… Expand
Leaf morphological differentiation between Quercus robur and Quercus petraea is stable across western European mixed oak stands
- A. Kremer, J. Dupouey, +15 authors V. Badeau
- Biology
- 1 November 2002
Leaf morphology was assessed in nine mixed oak stands (Quercus petraea and Q. robur) located in eight European countries. Exhaustive sampling was used in an area of each stand where the two species… Expand
Uses, traditional management, perception of variation and preferences in ackee (Blighia sapida K.D. Koenig) fruit traits in Benin: implications for domestication and conservation

- 2007
Chloroplast DNA and two categories of nuclear markers - isozymes and microsatellites - were used to examine a very rich natural community of oaks (Quercus spp.) situated in west-central Romania. The… Expand
Subtle human impacts on neutral genetic diversity and spatial patterns of genetic variation in European beech (Fagus sylvatica)
- K. Rajendra, Sarah Seifert, K. Prinz, O. Gailing, R. Finkeldey
- Biology
- 1 May 2014
Abstract We aim to understand the role of past and ongoing anthropogenic impacts on genetic variation patterns at different spatial scales for the dominant tree species European beech ( Fagus… Expand
Genetic implications of silvicultural regimes
- R. Finkeldey, M. Ziehe
- Biology
- 11 August 2004
Human impacts on genetic structures of forest tree populations are manifold. Changes of environmental conditions and forest stand structures brought along by silvicultural practices concerning… Expand
Genetic structure of Araucaria angustifolia (Araucariaceae) populations in Brazil: implications for the in situ conservation of genetic resources.
- V. M. Stefenon, O. Gailing, R. Finkeldey
- Biology, Medicine
- Plant biology
- 1 July 2007
The distribution of the genetic variation within and among natural populations of A. ANGUSTIFOLIA growing in different regions in Brazil was assessed at microsatellite and AFLP markers. Both markers… Expand
Spatial genetic structure of Sorbus torminalis: The extent of clonal reproduction in natural stands of a rare tree species with a scattered distribution
- S. Hoebee, C. Menn, P. Rotach, R. Finkeldey, R. Holderegger
- Biology
- 1 May 2006
Abstract Distinct spatial genetic structure, as the result of various evolutionary and ecological processes, is a common feature of tree populations. The rare pioneer forest tree Sorbus torminalis… Expand
