Abstract

In this work five chloroplast simple sequence repeat markers (cpSSR) were used to describe the genetic variation of Pinus nigra subsp. salzmannii populations from SE Spain (Murcia province). The infinite allele model (IAM) was used to analyze the genetic structure of both natural and reforested populations, and to assess the geographical distribution of haplotypic variation. Overall, large levels of genetic variation whitin and between populations was detected. Genetic variation follow a clear geographic pattern. These results could be explained by a dramatic decline of its distribution and by the fragmentation of populations since Holocene times in Southeast Spain. It is suggested that the population from Rincon de los Huertos could have been originated from propagules from the Baetic range. In addition, populations from Sierra Espuña (reforested) and El Carche could have their origin from samples located on the Iberian range.
