W. Prusglowacki et E. Bernard, ALLOZYME VARIATION IN POPULATIONS OF PINUS-SYLVESTRIS L FROM A 1912 PROVENANCE TRIAL IN PULAWY (POLAND), Silvae Genetica, 43(2-3), 1994, pp. 132-138
Study of the genetic variation and genetic structure of 13 populations
of Pinus sylvestris from Eastern Europe and Turkey has shown signific
ant genetic differentiation of the populations. The average genetic di
fferentiation (index GST) is high (0.076), but it is about 50 % lower
in populations from the area covered by ice during the last glaciation
(GST = 0.035). The mean multilocus heterozygosity for 8 loci (Ho = 0.
357) and the average number of alleles per locus are similar to those
from the other parts of Europe. The genetic similarities of population
s (Nei) are not correlated with the geographical localities of the stu
died stands.
