Patterns of plastid and nuclear variation among apomictic polyploids of Hiera…

† Background and Aims: Apomictic species (with asexual seed production) make up for 20–50 % of all taxonomically recognized species in northern Europe, but the phylogenetic relationships of apomictic species and the mode of evolution and speciation remain largely unknown and their taxonomy is consequently disputed. † Methods: In the present study, plastid psbD-trnT sequences (349 acc…
