The genetic diversity of eastern North American tree species as related to the extent of their spatial distribution during the Last Glacial Maximum
(2020)The distribution of boreal and temperate species during the last glacial maximum (LGM) in Eastern North America can have a significant effect on the genetic diversity of present day populations. Here, I modelled the LGM ... -
Relationship between glacial refugial range and genetic diversity in eastern North American conifer species
(2020)The aim of this thesis is to relate genetic diversity to the extent of glacial refugia in several important North American conifer species. Refugial locations were hindcasted using MaxEnt software with occurrence points ...
