Abstract: | Background Few studies address the issue of hybridization in a more than two-species context. The species-rich Quercus complex is one of the systems which can offer such an opportunity. To investigate the contemporary pattern of hybridization
we sampled and genotyped 320 offspring from a natural mixed forest comprising four species of the European white oak complex:
Quercus robur, Q. petraea, Q. pubescens, and Q. frainetto. |
