Sequence-tagged-site (STS) markers of arbitrary genes: the amount and nature of variation revealed in Norway spruce.

abstract：:Flowering time differences between metal-tolerant and nontolerant populations of the grass Anthoxanthum odoratum growing across a mine boundary have persisted for over 40 years. These flowering time differences result in a high degree of prezygotic genetic isolation (isolation index=0.43) between the tolerant mine pop...
