Population Differentiation and Genetic Relationship in Ethiopian Thyme - Population Differentiation,Genetic distance and Geographic Distribution of Thymus schimperi in the Highlands of Ethiopia

The purpose of this work is to study the genetic variability and relationship between Ethiopian Thyme that have never been studied at molecular level. Hence, in this book you could find how AMOVA partitioned the total genetic variance (PhiPT) into different levels (within individual populations, among populations within regions and among populations from different geographic regions). You can see also how all of the three levels of variance significantly contributed to the overall genetic variation, as determined through the permutation analyses at p<0.001value.The analyzed ISSR markers created sufficient polymorphism and reproducible fingerprinting profiles. In addition, this research provided information about geographic distribution and genetic distance of T. schimperi. This study also supports the hypothesis that variations in ecological conditions affect genetic variations of T. schimperi.
