High Genetic Diversity and Low Differentiation of Michelia coriacea (Magnoliaceae), a Critically Endangered Endemic in Southeast Yunnan, China
Michelia coriacea, a critically endangered tree, has a restricted and fragmented distribution in Southeast Yunnan Province, China. The genetic diversity, genetic structure and gene flow in the three extant populations of this species were detected by 10 inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers and 11 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. Examination of genetic diversity revealed that the spe...
متن کاملEffects of habitat fragmentation on effective population size in the endangered Rio Grande silvery minnow
We assessed spatial and temporal patterns of genetic diversity to evaluate effects of river fragmentation on remnant populations of the federally endangered Rio Grande silvery minnow (Hybognathus amarus). Analysis of microsatellite and mitochondrial (mt) DNA detected little spatial genetic structure over the current geographic range, consistent with high gene flow despite fragmentation by dams....
متن کاملStatus of Rare and Endangered Freshwater Mussels in Southeastern Oklahoma
We reviewed the conservation status of rare and endangered species of mussels in southeastern Oklahoma by completing surveys of 10 long-term monitoring sites on the Kiamichi River and five sites in the Little River. We found extant populations of the Ouachita rock pocketbook, Arkansia wheeleri, scaleshell, Leptodea leptodon, winged mapleleaf, Quadrula fragosa, and rabbitsfoot, Quadrula cylindri...
متن کاملBiogeographical affinities of the flora of southeastern Yunnan, China
Southeastern Yunnan has 4,996 species and varieties of 1,357 genera and 186 families of native seed plants recorded. Floristic attributes and biogeographical affinities of the flora were studied by analyzing its floristic composition and geographical elements. Tropical genera comprise a majority (68.83%) of the flora and those of tropical Asian distribution contribute to 27.34% of the total gen...
متن کاملHabitat fragmentation, rapid evolution and population persistence
Associations between extinction and habitat fragmentation have been modelled and described, but we document the first clear mechanistic link between habitat fragmentation and population persistence, demonstrating that a rapid evolutionary response to fragmentation can yield conditions wherein some populations are more vulnerable to extinction. Historical differences in the partitioning and tenu...
