Effects of geographic distance and dispersal barriers on amphibian polymorphism

Keywords and Phrases

Amplified fragment length polymorphism; Acris crepitans blanchardi (Blanchard's cricket frog)

Abstract

"The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of two differing methods of determining the level of variation within and among several populations of Acris crepitans blanchardi, Blanchard's Cricket frog. To test the methods, populations were examined on either side of a dispersal barrier, the Mississippi River, and geographically disjunct populations in Missouri and Illinois"--Introduction, page 4.
