Abstract
The recent development of a number of molecular markers has provided new approaches to the analysis of biogeographic patterns and underlying evolutionary processes. After a brief overview of selected molecular markers, we discuss lines of biogeographic inquiry involving genetic analysis where geographers can potentially make the greatest contribution. Examples from our own genetically-based biogeographic research are provided. These include examination of spatial patterns of genetic variation, inferences about paleoenvironmental conditions, determination of evolutionary relationships, and analysis of genetic effects of human activity.
