| Abstract |
The species limits and infraspecific DNA sequence diversity of Cyclamen libanoticum was examined. Analysis of the chloroplast DNA from six regions shows that, in C. libanoticum, only one base-pair difference is found among samples within the analysed 7066 base-pairs. This one base-pair difference (9 ‘A’s vs 10 ‘A’s) was found in the samples collected from a single site and could represent a very minor change in DNA sequence or even show the limits or accuracy of the sequencing system used. C. libanoticum is highly distinct from other congeners in DNA sequence. |
