Other claims from this paper (14)
- Observation Taiwanese populations show significant inbreeding.
- Association Mainland Chinese populations have lower inbreeding levels than Taiwanese populations.
- Observation Chloroplast DNA analysis identified eight haplotypes.
- Observation Chloroplast DNA haplotypes include unique variants in Taiwanese populations.
- Observation AMOVA confirmed significant genetic differentiation between the two regions.
- Observation AMOVA revealed four distinct clustering patterns.
- Observation Three clear phylogenetic clades were identified.
- Observation The Taiwanese TS population is early-diverging.
- Observation The Taiwanese TS lineage shows an earlier separation event.
- Observation Other Taiwanese populations (PCTS and AW) diverged subsequently from mainland Chinese populations (CH).
- Association Phylogeographic events temporally correspond with paleoclimatic and geotectonic episodes in East Asia.
- Association Taiwan shows a recent population decline, in contrast to more stable population dynamics on the mainland.
- Observation Historical gene flow between Taiwan and the mainland is limited.
- Mechanism Several dispersals and vicariant events influenced the current genetic structure (author interpretation).
