“…The RAPD technique (Williams et al, 1990) has become an increasingly popular tool in genetic studies (Liu and Furnier, 1993;Chong, Yang, and Yeh, 1994;Isabel, Beaulieu, and Bousquet, 1995;Peakall, Smouse, and Huff, 1995;Apostol et al, 1996;Karhu et al, 1996;Szmidt, Wang, and Lu, 1996;Aagaard, Krutovskii, and Strauss, 1998;Wu, Krutovskii, and Strauss, 1999). The RAPD technique can yield a large number of loci, thereby providing a more representative sample of the genome than is possible with allozymes.…”
