Genetic Structure of Sympatric Sexually and Parthenogenetically Reproducing Population of Chara canescens (Charophyta)

Table 3

Comparison of the clonal diversity ( 𝑁 𝐺  :  𝑁 ), number of genotypes ( 𝑁 𝐺 ), mean number of alleles per locus ( 𝑁 𝐴 ), and genetic diversity ( 𝐻 𝐸 , gene diversity, Nei, 1978) between sexually and parthenogenetically reproducing Chara canescens populations. P: parthenogenetical reproduction; s: sexual reproduction.
