A molecular analysis of the population structure, mating system and demography of Eucalyptus
… 1. To do this, I applied a novel analysis using Bayesian Skyline plots. The demographic reconstruction of the regions showed two trends of exponential expansion, which started around the early-mid Pleistocene transition. These trends suggested that the island populations expanded earlier while …
