Implications of hybridisation and cytotypic differentiation in speciation assessed by AFLP and plastid haplotypes - a case study of <it>Potentilla alpicola</it> La Soie

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Hybridisation is presumed to be an important mechanism in plant speciation and a creative evolutionary force often accompanied by polyploidisation and in some cases by apomixis. The <it>Potentilla collina</it> group const...
