DNA sequence and RFLP analysis of Pleurotopus longinqua from three disjunct populations
Hughes KW, Toyohara TL, Petersen RH. 1998. DNA sequence and RFLP analysis of Pleurotopus longinqua from three disjunct populations. Mycologia. 90(4):595-600
From the Abstract: "The known distribution of Pleurotopsis longingqua is restricted to southeastern Australia, New Zealand, Patagonia, and the northern Pacific coast of North America. Previous studies demonstrated that isolates from all of these areas were sexually compatible (i.e. were the same biological species). Intercompatibility studies, however, did not provide information about genetic (evolutionary) relationships among the disjunct populations. Restriction fragment patterns of the nuclear ribosomal ITSI-5.8S-ITS2 were compared for isolates from each geogrphical region to estimate genetic divergence."
