Abstract:Many Cycad species may not survive the current extinction crisis, despite belonging to the oldest living seed plant lineage. Conservation of endangered and threatened species will require a combination of in situ and ex situ programs, both of which will benefit from better knowledge of species’ population genetic structure, as will assessments of threatened status. Here we develop a cost-effective method of obtaining population-level genomic data from across the range of the Mexican cycad, Dioon holmgreni, and… Show more
