Several papers deal with a conservation genetics gap in which plant and restoration managers or practitioners do not soundly integrate population information into management. Authors concerned about this issue point out that perceive genetic research results to be impractical unnecessary the short term due time financial constraints. In addition, researchers often fail translate findings comprehensive, jargon-free recommendations effectively. If possible, conservation-related conservation-oriented articles should easily written bridge research–implementation gap. Finally, based on previously published prioritization framework for scenarios, we introduce four simple categories by exemplifying each case. We hope could employ these suggested guidelines of population- species-level

Wuzhimaotao (Radix Fici Hirtae) originates from the dry root of Ficus hirta (Moraceae), which is widely known as a medical and edible plant distributed in South China. As increasing demand for Wuzhimaotao, wild F. has been extremely reduced during past years. It urgent to protect rationally develop resources its sustainable utilization. However, lack genetic background makes it difficult plan conservation breeding strategies this plant. In present study, total 414 accessions 7 provinces southern China were evaluated population genetics using 9 polymorphic SSR markers.A mean 17.1 alleles per locus was observed. The expected heterozygosity (He) varied 0.142 0.861 (mean = 0.706) nine loci. High diversity (He 0.706, ranged 0.613 0.755) low differentiation among populations (G'ST 0.147) revealed at level. addition, analysis molecular variance (AMOVA) indicated that principal existed within (96.2%) significantly higher than (3.8%). Meanwhile, three kinds clustering methods (STRUCTURE, PCoA UPGMA) suggested sampled clustered into two main groups (K 2). Mantel test showed significant correlation between geographic distance (R2 0.281, P < 0.001). Pollen flow, seed flow and/or geographical barriers might be factors formed current patterns populations.This comprehensive study structure We high medicinal clarified causes patterns. Our will provide novel insights exploitation hirta.

This study aims identify explore factors related between herbaceous woody angiosperms facilitate more effective management strategies understand the interactions threats traits. Location China. Taxon Angiosperms. Methods We obtained large dataset including five traits, six extrinsic variables, 796,118 occurrence records 14,888 Chinese angiosperms. assessed phylogenetic signal used generalized least squares regressions relationships risk, plant variables in also path analysis evaluate causal among climate of different growth forms.

Abstract Background Caryopteris mongholica Bunge is a rare broad-leaved shrub distributed in the desert and arid regions of Mongol North China. Due to land reclamation, natural habitat deterioration anthropogenic activities recent years, wild resources have sharply reduced. To effectively protect rationally use it, we investigated genetic diversity population structure from 18 populations across range C. China by reduced representation sequencing technology. Results We found overall average values observed heterozygosity ( Ho ), expected He nucleotide π ) were 0.43, 0.35 0.135, respectively. Furthermore, NM17 exhibited higher than other populations. The phylogenetic tree, principal component analysis (PCA) showed sampled individuals clustered into two main groups. NM03 population, with both groups, may be transitional located between In addition, most variation existed within (90.97%) compared that among (9.03%). Interestingly, geographic environmental distances almost equally important differences. Redundancy (RDA) identified optical radiation (OR), minimum temperature (MIT) mean annual precipitation (MAP) related variables as environment factors influencing variation, importance MIT was also confirmed latent factor mixed models (LFMM). Conclusions results this study facilitate research on . These features provided vital information for conserving sustainably developing resources.

Seseli farrenyi (Apiaceae) is an extremely narrow endemic plant, which considered as one of the species most conservation concern in Catalonia (NW Mediterranean Basin). Given accelerated fragmentation and reduction population size (of over 90%), environmental agency currently preparing a recovery plan that includes reinforcements extant populations. The present study aimed at providing necessary knowledge to carry out genetically-informed translocations, by using microsatellites genetic markers. Fourteen have been specifically developed for S. , nine used. Besides natural populations, three ex situ collections are known exist this also studied, they would be donor sources translocation activities. Our main finding levels diversity populations still high ( H e = 0.605), likely result predominantly outcrossing mating system combination with limited time elapsed since decline. However, showing first signs, values differentiation relatively high, two well-differentiated lineages found even such geographic range. These results provide important information when designing management measures.

Abstract White clover ( Trifolium repens ) is a stoloniferous legume herb native to Eurasia, which had been introduced and spread globally. In Brazil, it was as forage crop. While previous studies focused mainly on its agricultural benefits, much remains unclear about territorial dynamics, introduction process potential threats in Brazil. This study aims estimate the genetic diversity of naturalized white populations Brazil assess influence cultivars into these populations’ diversity. Through MIG-Seq analysis, 1097 SNPs show that Brazilian have 94% within-population variation. Additionally, two mountainous areas clustered together, while rural urban formed second cluster. Cultivars are less diverse 27% their variability between them. We found some admixture with cultivated varieties, more isolated were singular background. can conclude possible parts originally native, brought during European immigration, others appear similar cultivar ancestry, indicating biological escapes from populations. Considering ecological data our findings, confirmed indeed

SUMMARY Demographic history and mutational load are of paramount importance for the adaptation endangered species. However, effects population evolutionary genetic on adaptive potential in conifers remain unclear. Here, using transcriptome sequencing, whole chloroplast genomes mitochondrial DNA markers, combined with niche analysis, we determined demographic three threatened whitebark pines having different statuses, Pinus bungeana , P. gerardiana squamata . inference indicated that severe bottlenecks occurred all at times, coinciding periods major climate geological changes; contrast, while experienced a recent expansion, maintained small sizes after bottlenecking. Abundant homozygous‐derived variants accumulated pines, particularly species most heterozygous was moderately few highly deleterious pine have ( ), likely because purging effects. Finally, modeling showed distribution might experience significant expansion future, species' identified clusters also supported by differences ecological niche. The integration genomic, data has allowed us to prove contrasting patterns load, which may important implications their thus key informing conservation planning.

Abstract Glyptostrobus pensilis (Cupressaceae) is the only surviving species of genus . Although widely cultivated throughout China, in wild it occurs as small stands southeastern central Laos, and southern Vietnam. However, its low genetic variability, lack recruitment, progressive destruction habitat caused by humans, have meant that populations are showing a clear declining trend whole threatened. Ecological niche modeling used here to study present potential distribution, well future (2061–2080) using several global circulation models under two shared socioeconomic pathways (SSP 126 SSP 585) being produce IPCC Sixth Assessment Report. The current area G. 1,452,481 km 2 with areas greatest probability presence located China. This reduced for according most models, greater losses 585 scenario. Between 6.9 31.3% all would be outside (including Lao populations, which harbor highest levels variability). Conservation measures include expansion network protected (since over 90% do not occur within them), development propagation techniques, carrying out translocation activities should require international collaboration among countries found. With knowledge, we reassessed threat status IUCN criteria, downgrading from CR EN both China at level.

Abstract Increased access to genome‐wide data provides new opportunities for plant conservation.
