Aim To characterize the genetic structure and diversity of Pinus cembra L. populations native to two disjunct geographical areas, the Alps and the Carpathians, and to evaluate the rate of genetic differentiation among populations. Location The Swiss Alps and the Carpathians. Methods We screened 28 populations at three paternally inherited chloroplast simple sequence repeats (cpSSRs) for length variation in their mononucleotide repeats. Statistical analysis assessed haplotypic variation and fixation indices. Hierarchical analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA), Mantel test, spatial analysis of molecular variance (SAMOVA) and barrier analyses were applied to evaluate the geographical partitioning of genetic diversity across the species’ range. Results Haplotypic diversity was generally high throughout the natural range of P. cembra, with the mean value substantially higher in the Carpathians (H = 0.53) than in the Alps (H = 0.35). The isolated Carpathian populations showed the highest haplotype diversity among the populations originating from the High Tatras (Velka Studena Dolina) and South Carpathians (Retezat Mountains). AMOVA revealed that only 3% of the total genetic variation derived from genetic differentiation between the two mountain ranges. Differentiation among Carpathian populations was higher (FST = 0.19) than among Alpine populations (FST = 0.04). Low, but significant, correlation was found between the geographical and genetic distances among pairs of populations (r = 0.286, P < 0.001). SAMOVA results revealed no evident geographical structure of populations. barrier analysis showed the strongest differentiation in the eastern part of the species’ range, i.e. in the Carpathians. Main conclusions The populations of P. cembra within the two parts of the species’ range still share many cpDNA haplotypes, suggesting a common gene pool conserved from a previously large, continuous distribution range. Carpathian populations have maintained high haplotypic variation, even higher than Alpine populations, despite their small population sizes and spatial isolation. Based on our results, we emphasize the importance of the Carpathian populations of Swiss stone pine for conservation. These populations comprise private haplotypes and they may represent a particular legacy of the species’ evolutionary history. 相似文献

Limited filling of the potential range in European tree species 总被引:10,自引:2,他引:8
The relative roles of environment and history in controlling large‐scale species distributions are important not only theoretically, but also for forecasting range responses to climatic change. Here, we use atlas data to examine the extent to which 55 tree species fill their climatically determined potential ranges in Europe. Quantifying range filling (R/P) as realized/potential range size ratios using bioclimatic envelope modelling we find mean R/P = 38.3% (±30.3% SD). Many European tree species naturalize extensively outside their native ranges, providing support for interpreting the many low R/Ps as primarily reflecting dispersal limitation. R/P increases strongly with latitudinal range centroid and secondarily with hardiness and decreases weakly with longitudinal range centroid. Hence, European tree species ranges appear strongly controlled by geographical dispersal constraints on post‐glacial expansion as well as climate. Consequently, we expect European tree species to show only limited tracking of near‐future climate changes. 相似文献

Aim Three species of primitive spiders of the genus Atypus occur in European xerothermic habitats, where they live in burrows. The aim of this study is to explain their distribution by investigating environmental variables at sites where they occur in central Europe.
Location Over 50 sites in central Europe, Czech Republic.
Methods Data on climatic, edaphic and vegetational parameters were collected from more than 50 sites. Phytocenological data were processed using Ellenberg's indicator values.
Results Atypus muralis was found to occur almost exclusively in dry grassland (Festucion valesiacae), exposed to a continental microclimate. Atypus affinis usually occurred in dry sparse forests (Genisto germanicae–Quercion) that provide an Atlantic microclimate. Atypus piceus occurred in dry grassland (Bromion erecti) or forest fringes (Geranion sanguinei) characterized by an intermediate microclimate. Atypus piceus and A. muralis were restricted to agglutinate calcareous soils.
Main conclusions Our results show that Atypus species colonized sites with different continentality in central Europe. These differences correspond to differences among their probable glacial refugia. Atypus muralis and A. piceus occur in habitats with a markedly continental climate, and are restricted to calcareous agglutinate soils that more efficiently buffer temperature and humidity extremes. Habitats of A. muralis and A. piceus are threatened by overgrowth of vegetation after a recent decline in grazing and by the decalcification of the landscape. However, habitats of A. affinis are stable in the present central European climate. 相似文献

Large-scale geographic patterns of genetic variation in Melica nutans, a widespread Eurasian woodland grass 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
T. Tyler> 《Plant Systematics and Evolution》2002,236(1-2):73-87
The geographic distribution of allozyme variation within the Eurasian boreo-nemoreal woodland grass Melica nutans L. has been investigated together with a minor subset of other Melica species. Twenty alleles were found at nine polymorphic loci in M. nutans. Allelic richness was highest in areas central in the species' European distribution, i.e. in southern Fennoscandia. High
population densities, reducing the effects of genetic drift, as well as accumulation of variation through long-distance gene-flow
from different marginal populations, is proposed to explain high allelic richness in this area. Several alleles showed geographic
patterns in distribution and frequency variation. However, these patterns were not congruent, e.g. some alleles appear to
have migrated to northern Europe from the south-west whereas others may have spread from the east. Genetic distances between
geographic regions, each consisting of 2–6 populations, were generally low between all Fennoscandian, Russian and Siberian
regions, but much higher between western and continental European regions. On the population level, cluster analysis grouped
populations from Siberia, Russia, coastal and lowland areas in Fennoscandia and British Cumbria into one subcluster whereas
other subclusters contained mainly south-west European populations or populations from almost throughout the distribution
range. A scenario with several independent glacial refugia in central Europe, south-western Siberia and possibly western Norway,
and subsequent colonisation of Fennoscandia mainly from the east, but with some long-distance gene-flow from central Europe,
is proposed.

Species persistence in northerly glacial refugia of Europe: a matter of chance or biogeographical traits? 总被引:5,自引:2,他引:3
Aim The southern European peninsulas (Iberian, Italian and Balkan) are considered to have been refugia for many European species of plants and animals during the climatic extremes of the Pleistocene ice ages. A number of recent studies (fossil and genetic), however, have provided evidence for full‐glacial survival of some species beyond these peninsulas. Here we explore the biogeographical traits of these species, and ask whether they possessed certain characteristics that enabled them to persist in more northerly refugia. Location Europe. Methods Fossil and genetic evidence for refugial localities of species that survived in Europe during the last full‐glacial was obtained from the literature (totalling 90 species: 34 woody plants and 56 vertebrates). Forty‐seven of these species (23 woody plants and 24 vertebrates) had fossil evidence, whereas the remaining 43 species (11 woody plants and 32 vertebrates) had only genetic evidence. All species were scored according to their present geographical distribution, habitat preference and life‐history traits. The species were classified on the basis of these traits using hierarchical cluster analysis. Analysis of similarities was used to examine differences in vertebrate and woody plant species groups that survived only in southerly refugia and those that also persisted in more northerly locations. Non‐metric multi‐dimensional scaling was used to examine patterns observed between and within groups. Results Results from our analysis of species with fossil and genetic evidence for survival in refugia reveal that species that survived only in southerly refugia were large‐seeded trees or thermophilous vertebrates. In contrast, species that had a full‐glacial distribution, including more northerly locations, were wind‐dispersed, habitat‐generalist trees with the ability to reproduce vegetatively, and habitat‐generalist mammals with present‐day northerly distributions. Main conclusions Analysis of the geographical distribution, habitat preference and life‐history traits of the species studied suggests that underlying biogeographical traits may have determined their response to Pleistocene glaciation. The traits most commonly found in present populations with a northerly distribution in Europe enabled the same species to exist much farther north than the southern European peninsulas during the full‐glacial. It is possible that many of these species are now in restricted populations, within the ‘warm‐stage’ refugia of the current interglacial. The northerly full‐glacial survival of a number of woody plants and vertebrate species has significant implications for understanding migration rates of these species in response to climate change. It also has important implications for understanding current patterns of genetic diversity of European species. We suggest that both fossil and genetic evidence should be used to identify and prioritize for conservation of refugial localities in southern and northern Europe. 相似文献

Phylogeography of the Marsh Fritillary Euphydryas aurinia (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) in the UK 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
DOMINO A. JOYCE REW S. PULLIN 《Biological journal of the Linnean Society. Linnean Society of London》2001,72(1):129-141
We sampled extant (and extinct) populations of Euphydryas aurinia to examine the phylogeography of the species in the UK. We were interested in whether the genetic structuring of populations reflects anything other than a single recent post-glacial colonization event. Four hundred base pairs of the mitochondrial Cytochrome b gene were sequenced from individuals from populations throughout the UK, as well as populations in France and Portugal and seven polymorphic allozyme loci resolved. The mean number of allozyme alleles per locus was 4 and isolation by distance was shown not to be a factor in the geographic structuring of genetic diversity either with or without the inclusion of the French data (Mantel statistic Z = 0.015 and 0.112 respectively, P >0.5). Cytochrome b nucleotide diversity (average number of nucleotide differences per site between two sequences) was low overall (0.003, n = 63) but mean cytochrome b gene diversity over all populations was 0.77. The presence of the Portuguese and French haplotype in Scottish populations indicates that the Iberian peninsula was likely to be one glacial refugium for E. aurinia populations. The pattern of mitochondrial DNA found in the UK could be interpreted in one of two ways: (1) two separate colonization events or (2) a single slow colonization event. Allele frequency distributions followed a similar geographical pattern as mitochondrial DNA haplotypes. An AMOVA assigned just 2.68% of allozyme genetic variation to the grouping tested, providing more support for the single colonization event theory. 相似文献

Phylogeography – the study of within-species phylogenetic and geographic divergence – has been primarily the domain of molecular evolutionists because molecular markers record population structure on smaller scales than do traditional morphological traits. But when geometric morphometrics are combined with distance-based phylogenetics molar shape divergence appears to record population-level phylogeny, a fact that allows extant and fossil populations to be combined in a single phylogeographic study. The European Sorex araneus complex – a genetically complicated group composed of multiple karyotypic races and species – illustrates the principle. The phylogeographic patterns revealed by molar shape broadly agree with scenarios based on molecular data and circumstantial evidence. Importantly, the inclusion of fossil samples of known age allows minimum divergence times to be inferred. Some races of S. araneus may have diverged more than 120,000 years ago, but others may have diverged less than 14,000. Supporting evidence that molar shape can be used to reconstruct phylogeographic relationships comes from strong correlations between molar shape distances and both phylogenetic divergence time and cytochrome b sequence divergence in datasets where these variables are known independently (fossil carnivorans from a well-constrained stratigraphic setting and shrew species of the genus Sorex, respectively). However, molar shape may have a saturation point beyond which it is not applicable. 相似文献
