摘要: Endemic Hawaiian Silene colonize new lava flows and are outcompeted as the ground ages. They illustrate genetic processes operating in evolution of pioneering island plants. The volcanic history Islands allows an estimation age these plant populations. In this study, populations S. struthioloides from Maui older part Hawaii, ha aliensis youngest volcanoes Hawaii were analyzed by enzyme electrophoresis. structures placed a geographic geologic context. is much more polymorphic on island, Maui. Genetic variation appears to have been lost colonization Hawaii. Interestingly, some loci for younger monomorphic alleles not found Recurrent colonizations accompanied with founder effects, restricted gene flow among has led isolation drift. This resulted morphological differentiation volcanoes.
