Abstract Despite the absence of major Quaternary glaciations in arid Northwest China, significant climatic oscillations definitely impacted evolution biota situ . Phylogeography has grown as a discipline because it provided explicit tools for study geographical subdivision among populations. But phylogeographical application China begun to blossom, which evidence that aridification played role increase genetic diversity and species diversification. The time frame corresponds with Pleistocene...
Clarifying the relationship between distribution patterns of organisms and geological events is critical to understanding impact environmental changes on organismal evolution. Quercus sect. Heterobalanus now distributed across Himalaya-Hengduan Mountains (HHM) warm lowland in East China, yet how this group changed response HHM uplift remains largely unknown. This study examines effect tectonic region oaks, providing a biological perspective history region. Fifty-six populations were...
Understanding adaptive genetic variation and whether it can keep pace with predicted future climate change is critical in assessing the vulnerability of species developing conservation management strategies. The lack information on relict carrying abundant resources hinders assessment vulnerability. Using a landscape genomics approach, this study aimed to determine how shapes population divergence predict potential Pterocarya macroptera (a vulnerable China) under scenarios.We applied...
Given that most species have ever existed on earth are extinct, it stands to reason the evolutionary history can be better understood with fossil taxa. Bauhinia is a typical genus of pantropical intercontinental disjunction among Asian, African, and American continents. Geographic distribution patterns recognized when records molecular sequences combined in analyses. Here, we describe new macrofossil from Upper Miocene Xiaolongtan Formation Wenshan County, Southeast Yunnan, China, elucidate...
Species of Paris Sect. Marmorata are valuable medicinal plants to synthesize steroidal saponins with effective pharmacological therapy. However, the wild resources species threatened by plundering exploitation before molecular genetics studies uncover genomes and evolutionary significance. Thus, availability complete chloroplast genome sequences is necessary crucial understanding plastome evolution this section facilitating future population studies. Here, we determined Marmorata, conducted...
Abstract Aim To establish a complete database of Juglandaceae at spatiotemporal scale and develop phylogeographic framework with which to elucidate the distributional patterns, diversity origins, evolution, conservation priority regions this family. Location Worldwide. Taxon Walnut family (Juglandaceae). Methods Data on distribution all extant fossil species were collected, followed by analyses its latitudinal distribution, elevational generic diversity. Furthermore, based genera 87%...
The Anthropocene proposal suggested that the Earth may have entered a new geological epoch, in which human activity and climate change are influencing environment at global scale. Arrival of is bringing an unprecedented challenge to biodiversity essential humans, enhancing many benefits nature being. However, loss aggravating rhythm inevitable Anthropocene, adaptation anthropogenic disturbance seems unable keep pace with change. Therefore, re-examination assumptions practices upon current...
The latitudinal diversity gradient (LDG) is one of the most extensive and important biodiversity patterns on Earth. Various studies have established that species increases with higher taxa numbers from polar to tropics. Studies multicellular biotas supported LDG land (e.g., plants, animals, forests, wetlands, grasslands, fungi, so forth) oceans marine organisms freshwater invertebrates, continental shelve, open ocean, even deep sea invertebrates). So far, there are several hypotheses...
Background Myricaria consists of about twelve-thirteen species and occurs in Eurasian North Temperate zone, most the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) adjacent areas. Methodology/Principal Findings Twelve plus two other genera Tamarix Reaumuria Tamaricaceae, were sampled, four markers, ITS, rps16, psbB-psbH, trnL-trnF sequenced. The relaxed Bayesian molecular clock BEAST method was used to perform phylogenetic analysis dating, Diva, S-Diva, maximum likelihood Lagrange estimate ancestral area....
Abstract Background Engelhardia (Juglandaceae) is a genus of significant ecological and economic importance, prevalent in the tropics subtropics East Asia. Although previous efforts based on multiple molecular markers providing profound insights into species delimitation phylogeography , maternal genome evolution phylogeny Juglandaceae still need to be comprehensively evaluated. In this study, we sequenced plastomes from 14 samples eight outgroup Rhoiptelea chiliantha incorporated published...
Environmental factors such as mountain tectonic movements and monsoons can enhance genetic differentiation by hindering inter- intraspecific gene flow. However, the phylogeographic breaks detected within species may differ depending on different molecular markers used, biological traits be a major confounding factor. <italic>Pterocarya hupehensis</italic> is vulnerable relict distributed throughout Sichuan Basin. Here, we investigated patterns evolutionary history of <italic>P. using...
ABSTRACT Climate change is widely recognized as a major threat to biodiversity and critical factor contributing the decline in species populations. However, it remains uncertain whether from continental island environments, especially endangered ones, will respond similarly or differently climate change. The strategies employed by these cope with change, corresponding conservation management approaches, remain poorly understood. In this study, we ecological niche models project future shifts...
ABSTRACT Aim A significant Cenozoic tectonic displacement of Hainan Island has been proposed, suggesting that the island underwent southeastward movement from an Eocene connection with Vietnam and Guangxi to its current location. This hypothesis adopted in some studies explain biotic origin Island. In this study, we aim critically evaluate validity based on available evidence. Location nearby areas. Taxon No specific taxon. Methods We reviewed relevant literature examined geological,...
