regional species richness and genetic diversity of Arctic vegetation reflect both past glaciations and current climate

AIM: The Arctic has experienced marked climatic differences between glacial and interglacial periods and is now subject to a rapidly warming climate. Knowledge of the effects of historical processes on current patterns of diversity may aid predictions of the responses of vegetation to future climate...
