Summary: In this project, we purpose to discover the postglacial migration routes and late glacial refugia of Alnus incana and A. glutinosa, which appear as a cryptic species in paleobotanical studies. We are planning to address these issues by combining both chloroplast DNA and microsatellite markers, which together can provide complimentary insights at different geographical and temporal scales.
