Abstract Genetic diversity and competitive dynamics are crucial in shaping plant communities. However, these have not been examined thoroughly the context of seed position within a fruit. This study integrated genetic analysis competition experiments to understand Aristolochia contorta . By combining molecular markers trials, we aimed deduce roles factors influencing seedling success, facilitating comprehensive assessment both environmental contributions growth patterns this species. Centrally positioned seeds showed superior germination rates due their larger size weight, providing edge over peripheral seeds, highlighting influence on nutrient allocation during germination. Regarding fruit orientation sowing, vertically upward‐sown fruits highest number shoots per fruit, suggesting that physical may early growth. result emphasizes importance (such as light exposure soil contact) determining success early‐stage seedlings. was low among fruits, with differentiation also being groups. Most variation observed individuals rather than between groups, indicating relatively homogeneous structure population. The be attributed species' reproductive strategies, particularly efficiency pollinators, which restricts gene flow variation. In summary, results suggest non‐genetic factors, such conditions position, play significant role interactions. Our findings provide valuable insights into evolutionary biology conservation strategies A. highlights potential challenges for species adapting changes. remain robust despite small sampling use whole DNA extraction.

Abstract The European chestnut (Castanea sativa) is an important nut crop that grows naturally in the Black Sea and Aegean regions of Turkey. This study examined genetic diversity population structure genotypes from prominent Turkey using Start Codon Targeted Polymorphism (SCoT) markers. A total 44 Turkish Aegean, Marmara, regions, along with a control group French variety, were analyzed. SCoT primers underwent tests to select most suitable ones, producing 8 selected amplified fragments, 65.34% which found be polymorphic. UPGMA PCoA analyses showed clear discrimination between two populations based on their origins, was supported by analysis. AMOVA analysis revealed 3% variation within 97% among individuals. out-group (French variety) furthest similarity, similarity values decreased increasing geographic distance. successfully fingerprinted could used future studies analyze phylogeny chestnuts genomic DNA.
