Deschampsia antarctica is the only grass naturally occurring in Antarctica, and it is also indigenous to southern South America. We aimed to evaluate patterns of within-population genetic diversity and between the focal areas Patagonia and Antarctica by using 144 sequences of nuclear internal transcribed spacer and non-coding plastid regions. We analysed phylogenetic relationships between these two main areas and performed demographic and landscape analysis. To test the divergence time between Antarctic and Patagonian populations we used approximate Bayesian computation. We found 17 nuclear and eight plastid haplotypes. For both molecular markers, Patagonia was the most genetically variable area in the range of D. antarctica. The divergence...
