Population genetic structure of Helixpomatia L. (Mollusca, Pulmonata) from the southeastern and eastern parts of the range

Abstract

On the basis of the analysis of genetic variation detectable by ISSR-PCR, the state of the gene pools of 14 populations of Roman snail Helix pomatia L. in the conditions of urbanized landscapes of the southeastern and eastern parts of the current range was examined. According to the data obtained, the majority of the studied populations of this mollusk are in satisfactory conditio
