摘要
Genetic variation was analyzed in the endangered prairie forb Penstemon haydenii. Individuals from nine populations were surveyed for chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variation. No cpDNA polymorphism was found. Analysis of mtDNA revealed variation within and among populations. A minimum of eight haplotypes were identified. The distribution of these genotypes suggests that there is some correlation between geographic and genetic distances, which reflects the minimal gene flow in this species.
