Small populations may experience non-random mating and differentiation due to genetic drift but larger populations, too, may have low effective size, e.g., due to the within-population structure. We studied spatial population structure of pedunculate oak,Quercus robur, at the northern edge of the species' global distribution, where oak populations are experiencin...
