“…More specifically, investigating these patterns for Late Pleistocene glacial and interglacial periods helps us to understand the evolutionary and ecological processes shaping modern-day populations and communities (Hewitt, 1996;Habel, Junker & Schmitt, 2010). Among these periods, the Last Interglacial [LIG; c. 130 000 years before the present (YBP)] and the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM; c. 22 000 YBP) greatly impacted Northern Hemisphere ecosystems by fragmenting temperate species' habitats at both small and large scales (for the LIG: Gür, 2013; Wang et al, 2013;Perktaş et al, 2015a; for the LGM: Hewitt, 1996;Vörös et al, 2016), creating interspecific and/or intraspecific genetic variation (Petit et al, 2003), and altering the distribution and abundance of species by changing vegetation-climate relationships (Svenning & Skov, 2004).…”

“…Three glacial refugia are widely accepted for temperate species in Europe: the Iberian, Italian and Balkan peninsulas (Hewitt, 1996;Taberlet et al, 1998;. Besides these, the role of Anatolia, another peninsula in the Mediterranean Basin, has recently been acknowledged as a refugium for various taxa (Rokas et al, 2003;Krebs et al, 2004;Perktas, Barrowclough & Groth, 2011;Gür, 2013;Korkmaz et al, 2014;Perktaş et al, 2015a;Perktaş, Gür & Ada, 2015b;Bagnoli et al, 2016). In comparison with other refugia of the Mediterranean Basin, Anatolia has the most diverse geography, being located at the intersection of Europe, the Middle East, Central Asia and Africa (e.g.…”

During the Pleistocene glacial periods, the ranges of many temperate species in Europe contracted southwards to refugia near the Mediterranean Basin. This study tested the 'expansion-contraction' model by applying the ecological niche modelling approach to one widespread temperate tree species, pedunculate oak, Quercus robur L., distributed across Europe and Anatolia. We projected the distribution of Q. robur under climatic conditions of the Present, the mid-Holocene [HOL, c. 6000 years before present (YBP)], the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM, c. 22 000 YBP) and the Last Interglacial (LIG, c. 130 000 YBP). Quercus robur was at equilibrium with the climate as the model prediction was highly compatible with the its known distribution range under present bioclimatic conditions. The LIG and the HOL predictions gave a much broader distribution range than that during the LGM, suggesting its range contracted towards favourable areas in southern Europe and Anatolia. The results indicate that the glacial refugia hypothesis, based mainly on the 'expansion-contraction' model, applies to Q. robur, although possible extra-Mediterranean refugia in northern, western and southern France are also identified. This study therefore supports claims that European biogeography is significantly more complex than previously thought.

“…Although ordinarily based on information at multiple loci, we applied this approach to single-locus mtDNA data, following Saglam et al (2014). To assure comparability with the niche modeling results (see below), we combined sequences from all populations in these assessments (e.g., Perktaş et al 2015).…”

Integrating morphology, phylogeography, and ecological niche modeling to explore population differentiation in North African Common Chaffinches

Diagnosing distinct evolutionary taxa requires careful assessment of genetic, morphological, ecological, and behavioral variation within and among populations. In this study, data on phenotype (mensural and plumage coloration), genotype (mitochondrial DNA control-region sequences), and distributional projections derived from ecological niche models, were used to investigate population differentiation of North African Common Chaffinches. Results showed substantial genetic variation among populations, mostly (*56 %) distributed between Libyan populations and other North African populations, rather than within populations. Isolation-by-distance analysis indicated severely restricted gene flow between populations. Historical demographic analyses indicate that population expansion began before the Last Glacial Maximum, which is consistent with ecological niche model paleoprojections; interestingly, differentiation of the Libyan population (Fringilla coelebs harterti) apparently did not take place under the last glacial conditions. Hence, although its taxonomic status must await robust testing using multilocus DNA data, this population is an important element in the conservation of bird diversity in North Africa.

“…According to studies in the past two decades, the Apennine, Balkan and Iberian Peninsulas have been proposed to be glacial refugia for European biota based on patterns and structure of genetic diversity, with many species recolonizing Europe from these refugia following the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), 26.5 kBP (Hewitt, , ; Perktaş, Barrowclough, & Groth, ; Taberlet et al., ; Zink, Drovetski, & Rohwer, ; but see Feliner, ). Furthermore, recent studies have suggested that some species distributed in Anatolia harbour high genetic diversity and that this region might also have been an important glacial refugium for the European biota (Bilgin, ; Fritz et al., ; Gündüz et al., ; Gür, ; Hewitt, ; İbiş et al., ; Korkmaz, Lunt, Çıplak, Değerli, & Başıbüyük, ; Perktaş, Gür, & Ada, ; Perktaş, Gür, Sağlam, & Quintero, Rokas, Atkinson, Webster, Csóka, & Stone, ; Stamatis et al., ).

“…For example, a study conducted on the meadow grasshopper ( C. parallelus ) reported that the Anatolian refugium was a centre of origin for the European meadow grasshopper rather than a Balkan refugium (Korkmaz et al., ). Similarly, the refugium status of Anatolia has also been reviewed for species such as Kruper's nuthatch ( Sitta krueperi ) (Perktaş, Gür, et al., ), green lizard ( Lacerta viridis ) (Marzahn et al., ), brown hare ( Lepus europeaus ) (Stamatis et al., ), Anatolian ground squirrel ( Spermophilus xanthoprymnus ) (Gür, ) and the plant, Alpine rock cress ( Arabis alpine ) (Ansell et al., ). More recently, considerable evidence for the refugium status of Anatolia has been reviewed using a combination of ecological niche modelling and phylogeographic methods to examine to the comparative phylogeography of Sitta krueperi , Lacerta viridis and Lepus europeaus (Ada, ).…”

Genetic analysis of Turkish martens: Do two species of the genus Martes occur in Anatolia?

Stone marten (Martes foina) and European pine marten (M. martes) occur in western Eurasia. Current distributions of martens within Turkey and phylogenetic relationships among the Turkish and other populations of the two species within Eurasia remain relatively unknown. In this study, we aimed to determine genetic diversity within Martes populations inhabiting Turkey and to reveal the phylogenetic relationships among the Turkish and conspecific populations of the two marten species, using mitochondrial cytochrome b (CytB) sequences. Twenty‐four (24) haplotypes were identified among 86 marten samples collected across Turkey, including 23 novel haplotypes. Genetic distances among the Turkish haplotypes ranged from 0.1% to 0.8%, with an average of 0.3%. The 24 Turkish haplotypes were analysed together with those of conspecific populations deposited in GenBank. Phylogenetic (Bayesian Inference, maximum likelihood, neighbor‐joining) and network analyses revealed that all of the Turkish samples belonged to M. foina and that samples of M. martes were not encountered. Haplotypes of M. foina were divided into five haplogroups. The haplogroup including the two Chinese samples differed markedly from other the haplogroups. The remaining haplogroups contained samples from both the Turkish and European populations. We found that there was a genetically close relationship between the Turkish and the European stone marten populations. As a result of this study, M. martes may not be distributed in the Anatolian part of Turkey, possibly due to a barrier effect of two straits (Dardanelles and Bosporus) and the Caucasus Mountains. On the other hand, M. foina is distributed in both the Anatolian and Thracian parts of Turkey. Our results suggest that Turkey was likely one of the refuges for M. foina during Pleistocene glacial periods and is one of the centres of distribution of stone marten for Europe and the surrounding regions.
