Genetic diversity and biogeography of the boab Adansonia gregorii (Malvaceae: Bombacoideae)

Abstract: The Kimberley region of Western Australia is recognised for its high biodiversity and many endemic species, including the charismatic boab tree, Adansonia gregorii F.Muell. (Malvaceae: Bombacoideae). In order to assess the effects of biogeographic barriers on A. gregorii, we examined the genetic diversity and population structure of the tree species across its range in the Kimberley and adjacent areas to the east. Genetic variation at six microsatellite loci in 220 individuals from the entire species range was… Show more

“…The first of these is genetic data from six nuclear microsatellite loci, of 220 A . gregorii individuals [ 40 ] ( S1 Dataset ). Although the number of microsatellite loci is low and can render some quantitative methods inaccurate, we used this data to make qualitative observations on patterns of dispersal and relationship between populations.…”
