Other claims from this paper (13)
- Observation Genetic differentiation among A. velutinum populations was higher than among F. orientalis and Q. castaneifolia populations.
- Observation The global FST value was lowest for F. orientalis populations among the three species.
- Observation The global FST value was highest for A. velutinum populations among the three species.
- Observation The global FIS value was negative for A. velutinum populations.
- Observation Demographic history analysis revealed a bottleneck for A. velutinum populations during the last glacial period (11,500-115,000 Kya) with reduced effective population size.
- Observation All three species show multiple bottlenecks and reduced effective population size during the Quaternary.
- Observation Pronounced genetic divergence among A. velutinum populations in the Hyrcanian forests compared with the other two species suggests cryptic speciation.
- Observation F. orientalis populations showed low levels of genetic structure.
- Observation Q. castaneifolia populations showed low levels of genetic structure.
- Mechanism Species-specific factors such as pollen production and pollination efficiency may have influenced the low genetic structure of F. orientalis and Q. castaneifolia populations.
- Association Nucleotide diversity of F. orientalis populations in Iran is negatively correlated with altitude (p = 0.046).
- Association A. velutinum populations show a significant correlation between nucleotide diversity and longitude (p = 0.008).
- Observation F. orientalis populations from Türkiye were highly diverged from the Iranian F. orientalis populations.
