“…In addition, we now describe an ubiquitous presence of the Med2 (K2) lineage at all sites, suggesting a strong ability for this lineage to occupy different habitats and maybe great dispersal capacities as well. In all lineages and sites, we detected an important clonal richness, which confirmed that A. viridis can deploy genets with a great number of ramets (Mallien et al, 2017;Porro et al, 2019;Sauer, 1986;Sauer et al, 1986;Wiedenmann et al, 2000), even if, within this sampling, the Med4 K4 (Hoffmann, 1986). More surprisingly, the ramets of the Med1 (K1), Med2 (K2) or Med3 (K3) genets were not always located at the same site and some genets were comprised of individuals present in distant sites (Tables 4 and S1), suggesting again a potentially high capacity of migration/dispersion in this species, as already F I G U R E 5 Intralocation differentiation and interlocation differentiation in symbiont microsatellite contents for the different host genetic structures (N148 data set).…”
