We grew plants from multiple populations, representing each of the three geo-cytotypes in a common environment and monitored plant performance characteristics and life cycle habits.
This resulted in a final dataset of 193 individuals from multiple populations representing the ecological and morphological diversity of New Zealand Ourisia plus the Tasmanian outgroup.
This was to ensure that different maternal families were used for populations represented in multiple pairs.
Most of these populations represented endemic species, and multiple populations of the same species were often sampled.
More comprehensive analyses of the genetic architecture of complex traits may require the consideration of multiple populations that represent a larger sample of the standing intraspecific variation and thus provide a framework for comparative analyses [ 80].
In sharp contrast, there were the Yi, Mongolian, and Han populations (represented by CHB); all had multiple ancestries (Figure 1B).
Furthermore, if R. balteatus expanded from multiple refugia, then greater genetic diversity would be expected in some populations representing suture zones where genetic admixture may have occurred.
However, the line probe assays have been shown to be more sensitive for the detection of multiple genotype infections than sequence-based assays, as they can detect minor viral populations representing more than 5% 10% of the total population [23].
First, we find a population represented by multiple human-associated strains that contains a mixture of European and Asian alleles.
Multivariate analyses showed that solitary and gregarious individuals from different populations representing the two mtDNA clades had almost non-overlapping distributions based on multiple song and morphological measurements.
