Genetic variation in English oak (Quercus robur) in Finland.

Mattila A., Pakkanen A., Raisio J., Vakkari P. (1994). Genetic variation in English oak (Quercus robur) in Finland. Silva Fennica vol. 28 no. 4 article id 5537. https://doi.org/10.14214/sf.a9177

Abstract

Genetic variation in 5 natural stands of Quercus robur L. in Finland was analysed electrophoretically for 13 isozyme loci. Stands were on average polymorphic at 49.2% of the loci, with 2.1 alleles per locus. Observed heterozygosities, ranging from 13.6% to 16.9%, were slightly lower than estimates reported for German stands. The majority of the species’ genetic variation was found within each studied stand, and only 5.5% was between stands. Mean genetic differentiation (∂) was the same as that found in the primary range of the species, but the differentiation estimates (D) for single Finnish population were more variable.

Keywords
