Plastid DNA sequencing and nuclear SNP genotyping help resolve the puzzle of …

† Background and Aims: Recent research on the history of Platanus reveals that hybridization phenomena occurred in the central American species. This study has two goals: to help resolve the evolutive puzzle of central American Platanus, and to test the potential of real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for detecting ancient hybridization. † Methods: Sequencing of a uniparental pl…
