    • Long-distance plant dispersal to North Atlantic islands: colonization routes and founder effect 

      Alsos, Inger Greve; Ehrich, Dorothee; Eidesen, Pernille Bronken; Solstad, Heidi Merethe; Westergaard, Kristine Bakke; Schonswetter, Peter; Tribsch, Andreas; Birkeland, Siri; Elven, Reidar; Brochmann, Christian (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-04-15)
      Long-distance dispersal (LDD) processes influence the founder effect on islands.We use genetic data for 25 Atlantic species and similarities among regional floras to analyse colonization, and test whether the genetic founder effect on five islands is associated with dispersal distance, island size and species traits. Most species colonized postglacially via multiple dispersal events from several ...

    • Trans-Atlantic genetic uniformity in the rare snowbed sedge Carex rufina 

      Westergaard, Kristine; Alsos, Inger Greve; Engelskjøn, Torstein; Flatberg, Kjell Ivar; Brochmann, Christian (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2011)
      The red-listed, amphi-Atlantic sedge Carex rufina is highly specialized to certain alpine snowbeds, and threatened by current changes in snow cover duration and moisture conditions. Here we address its range-wide genetic diversity, history, and conservation using amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLPs). Despite extensive primer testing, we detected very low overall diversity (4.1% polymorphic ...
