Colonisation as a common denominator in plant metapopulations and range expansions: effects on genetic diversity and sexual systems
Colonisation plays a central role in both the initial occupancy of a region through range expansions as well as in metapopulations, where local extinctions are balanced by re-colonisations. In this paper, we review the effects that colonisation is expected to have on patterns of genetic variation wi...
