Abstract

Fragmentation process generate loss on connectivity habitat, where populations tend to suffer a reduction on genetic variation and increased inter-population divergence due to their limitated gen flow. Spatial genetic patterns could be conditionated by those population dinamic effect. Here we tested the effects of fragmentation on several genetic variables (i.e. genetic diversity and structure) of Helianthemum squamatum populations, a gypsophilous endemism of the Iberian Peninsula and Northern
