Widening the area of a Baikal endemic Leymus secalinus (Georgi) Tzvelev. (Poaceae) northward to the Aldan River basin (Yakutia) based on the molecular genetic study results
Abstract
The paper presents the results of studying the taxonomic relationships of Leymus secalinus (Georgi) Tzvelev. and L. littoralis (Griseb.) Peschkova in different geographical sites based on a comparison of ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 sequences of nuclear rDNA and cpDNA matK. Molecular genetic research of these species allowed us to expand the area of L. secalinus to the Aldan River basin (Yakutia).
