Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Most genetic variation occurred within populations (79.50%).
- Observation STRUCTURE identified two major genetic clusters.
- Observation The northern group had the lowest genetic diversity.
- Observation The southern group had higher genetic diversity (He = 0.59-0.73) and ten geographically structured subgroups.
- Observation Results suggested historical fragmentation and limited gene flow among populations.
- Observation A prevalent heterozygote deficit suggested inbreeding.
- Observation High diversity in specific populations indicated potential hybridization with sympatric Ternstroemia species.
