Evidence for the persistence of wild Ginkgo biloba (Ginkgoaceae) populations in the Dalou Mountains, southwestern China

Abstract: The corroborative evidence confirms the finding that these populations represent fragments of the original natural Ginkgo in the valley and lower mountain slopes of the Dalou Mountains.

“…The well-known relic Ginkgo biloba is one of the oldest living seed plants, and its natural habitat is restricted to small areas of China (Shen et al, 2005;Gong et al, 2008;Tang et al, 2012). Because of its edible seeds, medicinal efficacy, and ornamental value, this species is now widely cultivated worldwide.…”

“…To explore the plant communities and habitat similarity among four regions, we draw the floristic similarity dendrogram according to Tang et al (2011Tang et al ( , 2012 using the PaST software (Hammer et al, 2001). The values of relative DBH for long-lived individuals of Ginkgo biloba and Taxus chinensis were applied in the similarity dendrogram analysis using Euclidean and group average clustering.…”

“…Nowadays in Fanjingshan Mountain and its nearby regions, some wild individual or even wild populations of relict species can still be found (Axelrod et al, 1996;Tang et al, 2011Tang et al, , 2012, including Davidia involucrata Baill., Ginkgo biloba L., Liriodendron chinense (Hemsl.) Sarg., and Metasequoia glyptostroboides Hu & W. C. Cheng (GFNNRAB, 2004;Tang et al, 2011Tang et al, , 2012.…”

“…Thus, understanding the origin and phylogeography of G. biloba will help to elucidate the evolutionary history of seed plants, and the climate and geological changes that have occurred over time in the Northern Hemisphere. Its natural habitat is restricted to small areas of China (Shen et al, 2005;Gong et al, 2008;Tang et al, 2012), but this species is now widely cultivated around the world due to its edible seeds, medicinal properties, and ornamental value. Despite considerable field surveys and extensive fossil records for the genus Ginkgo (Zhou and Zheng, 2003;Zhou, 2009;Zhou et al, 2012), little is known about population genetics, molecular ecology, and genetic resources of this species.…”
