Atmospheric polychlorinated bihenyls (PCBs) deposit by dry and wet deposition mechanisms, and therefore they constitute a significant polluting source for lands and surface waters. Various samplers have been used to determine the PCB pollution level resulting from deposition. In the presented study, a modified wet deposition sampler (WDS) was used for sampling both wet and dry deposition samples with the same instrument by which wet deposition reservoir of the WDS is opened and dry deposition reservoir is closed when rain starts. Wet and dry deposition samples were collected between June 2008 and June 2009. In the samples taken from BUTAL which is known as an urban area with heavy traffic, ??PCB dry deposition fluxes were determined as 18?±?10 ng/m2??day, and wet deposition fluxes for dissolved and particle phase were measured as 480?±?1,185 and 475?±?1,000 ng/m2??day, respectively. The dissolved and particle-phase PCB concentrations in rain were 10?±?13 and 13?±?14 ng/l, respectively. The contribution of wet deposition to total PCB deposition was determined as 52%. PCB concentrations in the ambient air were measured to be 370?±?200 and 20?±?20 pg/m3 for gas and particle phases, respectively. Washout ratio was determined by proportioning rain concentration to concentration in air. The washout ratios of the samples were between 1,675?C311,800 and 12,775?C2,511,120 for dissolved and particulate phases, respectively.  相似文献

This study investigated levels of genetic diversity and population differentiation among Sitka spruce (Picea sitchensis) populations classified as core or peripheral based on ecological niche, and continuous or disjunct based on species distribution. Large numbers of trees (N = 200) were sampled from each of eight populations to evaluate the distribution of rare as well as common alleles across the species range. Codominant alleles for eight sequence-tagged site loci were classified based on frequency and geographic distribution in order to develop appropriate sampling strategies to target specific classes of alleles. An important finding of this study is the similarity in genetic diversity as measured by expected heterozygosity between core populations (mean HE = 0.58) and peripheral populations (mean HE = 0.56). However, there was significant inbreeding in peripheral (FIS = 0.17) but not in core (FIS = 0.03) populations. Large differences in gene flow estimates were observed between core (Nm = 9.0) and peripheral populations (Nm = 3.5). Irrespective of population classification, over 75% of the alleles were common and widespread. Only one allele was classified as rare and localized, and this allele was limited to one core, disjunct and two peripheral, disjunct populations. There was stronger evidence of past bottlenecks in peripheral, disjunct populations than in core, continuous populations. Results are used to suggest sampling strategies for capture of maximum level of genetic diversity and conservation of rare alleles. The conservation of peripheral, particularly disjunct, populations as well as populations in putative glacial refugia may present the best opportunity for conserving rare alleles.  相似文献

The red kite (Milvus milvus) occurs in a relatively small area in the southwestern Palearctic region, with population strongholds in Central Europe. Following strong human persecutions at the beginning of the 20th century, populations have receded, particularly in peripheral areas and islands. In order to describe and compare levels of genetic diversity and phylogeographic patterns throughout its entire distribution in Europe, sequence variation of a 357 bps part of the mitochondrial DNA control region was assessed in eight populations and 105 individuals. Overall, results indicate that population declines have affected red kite mtDNA variation. We found low levels of genetic diversity (values of nucleotide diversity ranging from 0 in Majorca island to 0.0062 in Central Europe), with only 10 distinct haplotypes, separated by low levels of genetic divergence (mean sequence divergence = 0.75%). Highest haplotype and nucleotide diversities match with demographic expectations, and were found in Central European and Central Spanish samples, where present strongholds occur, and lowest values in the declining southern Spanish and insular samples. Φst estimates indicated moderate gene flow between populations. Phylogeographic patterns and mismatch distributions analyses suggest central European regions may have been colonized from southern glacial refugia (in the Italian or Iberian peninsulas). Interspecific phylogenetic comparisons and divergence date estimates indicated the genetic split between the red kite and its closely related species, the black kite (Milvus migrans), might be relatively recent. The low level of genetic variation found in the red kite mitochondrial control region, compared to the black kite, is likely the result of relatively recent divergence (associated with founder events), successive bottlenecks and small population sizes. As there are several ongoing projects aimed at reinforcing populations in countries such as the United Kingdom, Italy or Spain, our results may prove useful for the genetic management of the species.  相似文献

Experiments were conducted to monitor the pH and the persistence of simple organic acids (oxalic, citric, malic, glycolic acid) with and without Al complexation in rooting cultures (sand, peat, solution-only) under non-sterile conditions, and to characterize pertinent short-term responses of black spruce seedlings (Picea mariana [Mill.]) to subsequent changes in the rooting solutions. It was shown that the organic acids decayed within about five days unless the cultures were treated with a decay-controlling fungicide such as Captan, an antoxidant containing N-(trichloromethylthio)-4-cyclohexene-12-dicarboximide. Aluminum complexation did not increase the persistence of the organic acids except for oxalic acid. In all cases, the decay of the organic acids (or of the equivalent carboxylates) led to a simultaneous increase of solution pH which was most pronounced in the non-buffered solution cultures without Al. Captan did not affect the growth of black spruce seedlings, but was lethal to yellow birch (Betula alleghaniensis Britton) seedlings. The pH of tissuemized roots taken from the black spruce seedlings following treatments with oxalate and citrate (within and without Al) reflected the change of pH within the culture solutions.  相似文献

Experiments with solution cultures revealed that 1-yr-old black spruce (Picea mariana [Mill.]) seedlings growing in nutrient solutions experienced reductions in water uptake and moist plant weight when treated with water-soluble inorganic Al at the time of rapid shoot elongation. These reductions occurred with solution concentrations for Al at ≥ 16 mg L?1. Wilting was noticed with Al ≥ 8 mg L?1. In contrast, oxalated Al treatments had no visible effects on either water uptake or moist plant weight during shoot elongation. Later, near the time of budset, neither inorganic nor oxalated Al had an effect on moist plant weight or water uptake. This suggests that black spruce seedlings may or may not be susceptible to water-soluble inorganic Al depending on the degree of Al complexation afforded by the rooting medium, and by the plant roots at different times of the growing season. Water uptake was affected by the type of rooting medium in which the seedlings grew. For example, water uptake from peat was greater than water uptake from solution. Water uptake from sand was intermediate. Water uptake from solution-only cultures was probably affected by restricted O2 supply.  相似文献

The genetic structure and diversity of eight pairs of rice landraces from in situ (collected in 2007) and ex situ (collected in 1980) conservation programs were studied using 20 pairs of microsatellite markers with high polymorphism. Each pair of rice landraces shares a name and origin and has similar seed and plant traits. The number of alleles detected in the populations from in situ conservation ranged from 43 to 88 with the mean number of alleles per locus ranging from 2.15 to 4.40, while the number of alleles detected in the populations from ex situ conservation ranged from 33 to 65, and the mean of alleles per locus ranged from 1.65 to 3.25. Compared to the ex situ populations, the number of alleles, the number of specific alleles and the genetic diversity index showed a significant increase in the in situ populations. Further, the numbers of specific alleles from in situ populations were 2.1–5.0 times greater than in ex situ populations except for rice landrace ‘Qitougu’. An AMOVA showed that the within-landrace genetic structure differed significantly between in situ and ex situ conservation treatments with differences exceeding 20%. The analysis of genetic similarity reached similar conclusions to those of the AMOVA. Compared with ex situ conservation programs, the rice landraces under in situ conservation programs had more alleles and higher genetic diversity in Yunnan of China.  相似文献

Anchote (Coccinia abyssinica) is plant endemic in Ethiopia with a high calcium content grown for its edible tuberous roots. In spite of its importance as food security crop, there is no information available on molecular genetic diversity of this crop. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess genetic diversity within and among 12 populations of anchote using ISSR markers. Using nine ISSR primers, a total of 87 scorable bands was generated of which 74 were polymorphic. Within population diversity based on polymorphic bands ranged from 13.8 to 43.53 % with a mean of 33.05 %, Nei’s genetic diversity of 0.04–0.156 with a mean of 0.12, Shannon information index of 0.07–0.23 with a mean of 0.175 and analysis of molecular variation (AMOVA) of 51.4 % were detected. With all diversity parameters, the highest diversity was obtained from Gimbi, Bedele and Ale populations, whilst the lowest was from Manna. AMOVA showed a 48.56 % between populations variability and significantly lower than that of within population variation. Population differentiation with FST was 48.56 %. From Jaccard’s pairwise similarity coefficient, Decha and Nedjo were most related populations exhibiting 0.76 similarity and Manna and Nedjo were the most distantly related populations with similarity of 0.52. The only pentanucliotide primer used in the study, Primer 880 (GGAGA)3, showed a unique band in some individuals that appeared to be associated with morphological quantitative traits (lowest seed number, high protein content, largest fruit size and smallest vine length). Illubabor and Gimbi populations exhibited highest genetic diversity so that the populations should be considered as the primary sites in designing conservation areas for this crop.  相似文献

Anthropogenic and biogenic high molecular weight (C12–C32) hydrocarbons (HC) were deposited from the atmosphere in association with both wet and dry deposition. Wet deposition generally removes HC at a faster rate (22 to 670 μg m?2 day?1) than dry deposition (4 to 189 μg m?2 day?1). However, due to longer periods during which dry deposition occurred, the removal of atmospheric HC by wet and dry deposition is almost equal during this sampling period. Atmospheric HC concentrations ranged from 0.8 to 4.1 μg m?3 and show no simple relationship to wet or dry deposition rates. Large variabilities in deposition rates for individual events were found, but long-term average deposition was relatively constant.  相似文献

Hemigenia exilis (Lamiaceae) is a rare plant endemic to serpentine soils of the Goldfields of Western Australia. The species was presumed extinct until 1995, when it was re-discovered on a nickel ore deposit. To delineate the origin and extent of seed collection for rehabilitation after mining, and to identify the impact of removing one population due to mining, we assessed level and partitioning of genetic variation and differentiation. Twelve populations were sampled for DNA fingerprinting using the random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) technique. Ten primers produced 89 bands, 97% being polymorphic. Genetic diversity within populations ranged from 0.197 to 0.409, averaging 0.38 at the species level, which is high compared with most other endemic species. Heterozygosity within populations ranged from 0.355 to 0.431, averaging 0.27 over the species. AMOVA partitioned over 80% of the total variation within populations. Multidimensional scaling revealed weak but significant differentiation into a northern and southern provenance. Despite selective sampling, the genetic data provided useful information for the management of Hemigenia exilis. For restoration, seed should be collected from a range of habitats of several populations, while keeping the two provenances separate. This strategy is likely to maintain high genetic diversity and locally adapted populations.  相似文献

This study provides the first assessment of carabid beetle diversity in a natural forest context that encompasses a complete black spruce (Picea mariana) natural succession. Boreal forest conservation has been based on several assumptions about forest age that only consider species richness without accounting for species composition. It has also been guided by studies of incomplete chronologies that do not include naturally burned or old-growth stages. Twenty-one forest stands of different ages following fire - from recently burned to old-growth stages (0-340 years of age) - were sampled, revealing a strong relationship between age of forest and diversity of Carabidae. Over time, species richness followed a parabolic U-shaped pattern both with observed (Obs) and predicted richness (ACE). Chronological clustering identified four groups of species in the succession: the ‘burned’ group characterized 0-2-year-old forests, ‘regenerating’ (21-58 year), ‘mature’ (70-170 year) and ‘old-growth’ (177-340 year). The time spans corresponding to each of these assemblages lengthen with age of forest at an exponential rate. Ward’s and K-means (clustering without constraint) provided support for the four assemblages but showed variation between individual successions, particularly for the ‘regenerating’ assemblage, identified as the most heterogeneous. The IndVal method identified characteristic species in every stage of the succession, particularly Sericoda spp. in the burned stage and Dromius piceus and Platynus mannerheimii associated with old-growth stands. The results obtained here show that diversity of Carabidae varies in primeval conditions according to age of forest and such variation should be taken into account when conservation issues are involved.  相似文献

To study the magnitude and nature of genetic variation in E. fibrosus, the levels and distribution of allozyme and RAPD variations were investigated in populations collected from Finland and Russia. The results obtained from the allozyme and RAPD studies were compared to each other in 10 of the populations. The allozyme analysis showed that 6 of 12 presumed loci (50%) were polymorphic within the species, while the mean number of polymorphic loci within populations was 4.8%. The mean number of allele per locus for the species was 1.5 and 1.05 across the populations. Genetic diversity at the species level was low (H es = 0.025), and the mean population genetic diversity was even lower (H ep = 0.007). Both these values were much lower than the average for other Elymus and self-fertilising species. The largest proportion of the total allozyme diversity was found among, rather than within the populations (G ST = 0.70). The allozyme genetic distances between the populations did not reflect geographic distances. Cluster and principal coordinates analyses revealed the same allozyme relationship patterns among the populations. A comparison of allozyme and RAPD variation in 10 of the populations showed differences in the amount of genetic variation. The RAPD analysis revealed higher levels of variation (A p = 1.19, P p = 20.3 and H ep = 0.09) than the allozyme one) A p = 1.06, P p = 5.8 and H ep = 0.008). For both markers, the largest proportion of the total gene diversity was found among the populations studied (G st = 0.63 for RAPDs and G st = 0.65 for allozyme). In contrast to the allozyme analysis, the RAPD based genetic distances did reflect geographic distances. The cluster and principal coordinates analyses showed different grouping of populations for each data set. There was a positive, but not significant, correlation (r = 0.41) between the genetic distance matrices resulting from these markers. Regional comparison revealed that the Finnish populations had a higher diversity than the Russian ones. Generally, this study indicates that E. fibrosus contains low genetic variation in its populations. The results are discussed in the context of conservation of the species.  相似文献

The numbers and biomass of protozoa, bacteria and fungi were measured at various depths (1.5–122.5 cm) in the unsaturated zone of three contrasting pristine Danish forest site profiles: a dry beech (Fagus silvatica) forest on mor, a wet peaty spruce (Picea abies)/birch (Betula pubescens) forest and a dry spruce (P. abies) forest on mor. All sites were situated on a Weichel moraine. Except for a bacterial peak at 42.5 cm in the peat profile, the general tendency was a decrease in biomass with increasing depth for all groups examined. Protozoa decreased more rapidly with increasing depth than the other two groups of organisms examined. An evaluation of the bacterial–protozoan relationship by a simple mathematical model indicated that the subsurface protozoan populations are active and not accidental percolated cysts. The low protozoan numbers found in shallow subsurface sites contrast markedly with the results from contaminated sites where much larger protozoan populations have been reported even at considerable depths. Consequently, the results suggest that protozoa are good indicators of organic pollution in subsurface soils; however, more work involving the comparison of polluted and unpolluted soils is needed to confirm this suggestion.  相似文献

Thus far, there is little knowledge of the genetic diversity, structure and gene flow dynamics in rare wild and semi-wild soybean mixed populations, and such information is vital for understanding of the origin of semi-wild soybean (Glycine gracilis) and the biosafety protection of wild soybean from transgenic soybeans. Population eco-genetic data are necessary to provide a more coherent and comprehensive understanding of the genetic events that occurred in the natural habitats of wild soybean (Glycine soja). We tested genetic diversity and structure of 11 wild mixed populations of wild soybean (Glycine soja) and semi-wild soybean (G. gracilis), 1 wild soybean population, and 1 cultivated soybean variety population were studied using 20 nuclear microsatellite markers (SSRs). We found based on microsatellite polymorphisms that the mixed populations were characterized by higher mean heterozygosity (H o = 0.029) and outcrossing rate (t m = 6.35 %), and lower fixation index (F is = 0.891), and the semi-wild plants had distinctly higher heterozygosity (H o = 0.081) than that of the wild plants (H o = 0.007). The occurrence of semi-wild plants influenced population genetic structure but not geographical population differentiation. These mixed populations exhibited strong ecogeographical differentiation, which suggests that their original populations were colonized over a long phytogeographical history. The introgression occurred through pollen gene flow from the soybean fields into wild populations and created the semi-wild plants, with significant genetic differentiation from the typical wild ones. Introgressive genes could become established by two possible modes in wild soybean populations by both self-segregation and/or intrapopulation secondary hybridization. The latter deserves attention because of the possibility of rapid transgene escape.  相似文献

Levels of genetic variation and intrapopulation genetic structures of Leontice microrhyncha S. Moore (Berberidaceae) were assessed for six populations in South Korea, representing the southern most range of a species found in Northeast China and the Korean peninsula. Detected genetic diversity (Hes) was very low (0.024) and FIS values showed large heterozygote deficiencies. The small percentage of polymorphic loci and numbers of alleles per locus suggest that L. microrhyncha has a history of severe or long-lasting population bottlenecks that have eroded genetic diversity. This study suggests that the Korean population appears to consist of two historically isolated and independently evolving populations. It seems likely that these groups have been isolated and unstable for a significant period of time. However, the effects of recent habitat fragmentation on the historically disjunct and fragmented population system found in L. microrhyncha were not those predicted from the lack of significant relationships between population-level patterns of genetic variation and population sizes. Most non-unique genotypes were shared by most individuals and the lower level of diversity, high levels of inbreeding and population differentiation as well as high rate of seed production indicated that this species is autogamous and self-compatible and probably largely selfing. Therefore, to preserve extant genetic variation, all populations must be protected across the small geographic range of the species to retain both allelic and genotypic diversity.  相似文献

Using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers, we examined genetic variability of the moss Thuidium cymbifolium (Thuidiaceae) sampled from three types of spruce (Picea asperata) stands: an intact stand, naturally regenerated stands after clearcut harvests, and planted stands after clearcut harvests in the Miyaluo area, western Sichuan of China. Stands of the latter two types were of various age since the last clearcut. Results showed that the population of T. cymbifolium from the intact stand displayed the highest level of genetic diversity, and populations from the planted stands exhibited significantly higher levels than the naturally regenerated stands. In planted stands, genetic variation within populations increased over time. These findings indicated that habitat destruction by forest harvesting led to the reduction in genetic variation within populations, but that given time, artificial reforestation after clearcut was effective in promoting the recovery of genetic diversity in the recolonized moss species. Therefore, lengthening the normal felling rotation of plantations should be favored to restore and conserve genetic diversity in recolonized species. In addition, thinning young plantations via selective logging may provide heterogenous microhabitats similar to those in the old stands, and thereby facilitate the development of bryophyte communities and the increase of genetic variation of the recolonized mosses.  相似文献

American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius) is a native North American medicinal plant that is becoming increasingly vulnerable despite government harvest restrictions. To better understand the genetic diversity and gene flow of American ginseng, we studied RAPD variation in cultivated and wild populations. Classical and Bayesian analogues of genetic diversity statistics were estimated in seven wild and two cultivated populations. The wild populations were more highly structured (G stβ  = 0.41) than the cultivated populations (G stβ  = 0.24). The genetic diversity within populations ranged from H  = 0.05 to 0.38. Based on genetic pairwise distances, six of the wild populations clustered with the locally-derived cultivated population, while one wild population was more similar to the non-local cultivated population than the local populations. This wild population was highly diverse (P = 1.0; U = 1.0) suggesting that it was supplemented from exotic seed. A set of eight RAPD markers was identified that differentiated plants of local and non-local origin. As a conservation strategy, we recommend that regional gene banks be established based on molecular and geographic diversity to preserve the locally adapted germplasm. These regional gene banks would serve as a conservation tool and also provide a source of genes for genetic improvement of cultivated ginseng.  相似文献

Understanding the genetic relationship of crop ideotypes is essential for genetic analysis and breeding. The objective of this study was to determine genetic differentiation present among 20 selected tepary bean (Phaseolus acutifolius A. Gray) genotypes using morphological traits and simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers in order to identify genetically unique parental lines to develop breeding populations. Phenotypic diversity was estimated using Shannon-Weaver diversity index (H’), principal component analysis (PCA) and cluster analysis (CA). Genotypic diversity was estimated using Jaccard's genetic distances and CA. Shannon-Weaver diversity index values for the studied morphological traits ranged from 0.89 to 0.99, with a mean of 0.95 revealing high phenotypic differences among test genotypes. PCA identified four useful principal components (PC's) which contributed to 73% of the total phenotypic variation of collections. PC1 accounted for 28% of the total variation correlated to dry shoot mass and number of pods per plant. PC2 correlated with number of seeds per pod, grain yield and harvest index and contributed to 21% of total variation. The mean observed (Ho) and expected (He) heterozygosity values were 0.45 and 0.51, respectively revealing moderate genetic differentiation among genotypes. The mean polymorphic information content was 0.52, suggesting efficient discriminatory power of the SSR loci useful in future tepary bean genetic diversity analysis. The current study revealed moderate genetic differentiation among the studied tepary bean genotypes. Morphological traits and SSR markers well-correlated in allocating the tepary bean genotypes. The following genotypes were genetically distinct: G40201, G40237, G40068, G40033 and G40063 which are recommended for further crosses, selection and population development.  相似文献

Genetic diversity of 70 populations of niger (Guizotia abyssinica) representing all its growing regions in Ethiopia was investigated using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) to reveal the extent of its populations genetic diversity. Ninety-seven percent of the loci studied was revealed to be polymorphic for the whole data set. The within population diversity estimated by Shannon diversity index and Nei gene diversity estimates was revealed to be 0.395 and 0.158, respectively. The extent of genetic variation of populations from major niger producing regions was significantly lower than that of populations from other regions; however, it is distributed regardless of altitude of growth. Genetic differentiation between populations was estimated with Shannon index as G ST (0.432), Nei’s G ST (0.242) and AMOVA based F ST (0.350) and appears to be equivalent to the average values calculated from various RAPD based studies on outcrossing species. Higher proportion of the variation detected by AMOVA resided within populations (64.58%) relative to the amount of variation among populations (35.42%). UPGMA cluster analysis showed that most of the populations were clustered according to their region of origin. However, some populations were genetically distant from the majority and seem to have unique genetic properties. It is concluded that the crop has a wide genetic basis that may be used for the improvement of the species through conventional breeding and/or marker assisted selection. Collection of germplasm from areas not yet covered and/or underrepresented is the opportunity to broaden the genetic basis of genebank collection.  相似文献

In this study, we investigated the genetic diversity and relationships in C. olitorius by analysing populations representing different distribution areas, and developed a hypothesis on the origin and spread of the species in the pantropics. We employed amplified fragment lengths polymorphism (AFLP) and morphometric analyses in a total of 101 C. olitorius accessions. Results of both data sets are mostly congruent. The molecular analysis indicated generally low genetic diversity within populations and the Nei’s gene diversity (He) ranged from 0.0457 to 0.0955 with a mean of 0.0763. Qualitative traits, especially related to leaf morphology, branching habit and stipule color were the taxonomically most informative characters. The highest morphological variability occurred within African accessions, indicating that this species originally evolved in Africa. In both analyses, the Asian materials were nested within African populations, especially with those from North and East Africa. This indicates an African origin of the species and we hypothesise that dispersal occurred via the Mediterranean–Indian trade routes instead of natural migration along the coasts from western Africa to the Indian subcontinent. Both analyses revealed materials from Ethiopia to be quite distinct. The highest number of private bands (N?=?35), percent polymorphism (29.29%), and gene diversity (0.0955) were also detected in wild accessions collected from Ethiopia, suggesting a long-term spatial isolation of C. olitorius populations in the country. Germplasm samples from this region could therefore be a useful source of genetic variation in jute breeding programs.  相似文献

Using the 8 specific primer pairs based on the conserved motifs of plant resistance genes, the plant disease resistance gene analog polymorphisms (RGAPs) in 15 wild emmer wheat (Triticum dicoccoides) populations from Israel had been detected. High genetic variations at the RGAP loci were observed in T. dicoccoides populations. A total of 254 discernible bands were obtained among 115 accessions, and 192 bands (75.6%) were polymorphic. Each genotype had a unique banding profile, and the genetic similarity coefficient ranged from 0.094 to 0.862. In T. dicoccoides, the proportion of polymorphic loci (P), the genetic diversity (He) and Shannon’s information index were 0.756, 0.362 and 0.541, respectively. The proportion of polymorphic loci (P) per population averaged 0.732 (range: 0.515–0.932); genetic diversity (He) averaged 0.271 (range: 0.212–0.338); and Shannon’s information index averaged 0.404 (range: 0.310–0.493). The coefficients of genetic distance (D) among populations averaged 0.107 (range: 0.043–0.178), and the results of Mantel test (r = 0.168, P = 0.091) showed that the estimates of genetic distance were geographically independent. Neighbor-joining cluster analysis suggested that the genetic relationships of T. dicoccoides populations were associated with their ecogeographic distribution. The hierarchical analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) and the coefficient of gene differentiation (G ST ) values revealed that most of the variations were presented within populations, although significant differences among populations and regions were also detected. The values of P and Shannon’s information index were negatively correlated with the two factors: Tdd (day–night temperature difference) and Ev (mean annual evaporation), whereas they were positively correlated with one water factor: Rn (mean annual rainfall). The correlation matrix between He in the RGAPs and geographic variables contained 20 significant (P < 0.05) correlations. The present study established that T. dicoccoides in Israel had a considerable amount of genetic variations at RGAP loci at least partly correlated with ecological factors.  相似文献
