Genetic diversity of Rhododendron dauricum based on morphological traits and SSR markers by Dan Wang, Ying Ma, Xueli Zhao, Ling Wang

“…The diversity of R. dauricum germplasm resources in these areas has not been determined and it can be dynamic due to increasing climate change and human activities, which poses a challenge to effective conservation efforts. To promote genetic diversity conservation and develop new R. dauricum varieties, we performed a systematic morphological and molecular evaluation of R. dauricum populations in the in 13 populations. …”
