Gene flow from multiple sources maintains high genetic diversity and stable population history of Common Moorhen Gallinula chloropus in China

Abstract: In this study, we used mitochondrial control sequences and microsatellite data from 231 Common Moorhen Gallinula chloropus individuals sampled from 19 sites in China to analyse their genetic structure and evolutionary history. High genetic diversity was found for all populations, although microsatellite analysis showed that the genetic diversity in non‐migratory populations was significantly higher than in migratory populations. High gene flow occurred between neighbouring populations, although long‐distance g… Show more

“…Birds usually have a higher gene flow than other organisms because of their ability to fly and move over longer distances (Miller et al, 2015). Nuclear genetic differentiation ascending with gene flow among populations explained that in adjacent populations, those with high gene flow always have low genetic differentiation (Ruan et al, 2018). This study obtained consistent results with previous studies, which could be explained as high gene flow resulting in low genetic differentiation.…”

“…STRUCTURE also supported a weak geographic structure. High gene flow and genetic diversity may correspond to a fragile population structure (Li et al, 2015;Ruan et al, 2018). However, there was no significant sex-biased dispersal pattern in the silver pheasant, indicating that sex-biased dispersal must not be an explanation for the weak population structure.…”

“…MtDNA is typically double-stranded and maternally (Wolstenholme, 1992;Roques et al, 2004), it is valuable for studies of avian taxonomy and phylogeny (Shen et al, 2009;Jetz et al, 2012;Ren et al, 2014), genetic structure (Ruan et al, 2018), biological identification (Lecroy and Barker, 2006;Zhu et al, 2021), and conservation genetics (Allendorf et al, 2010), as it is a neutral molecular marker (Torroni et al, 2001;Nabholz et al, 2008). As the main energy suppliers of the cell, mitochondria produce approximately 90% of cellular ATP reserves through the highly efficient chemical osmotic coupling of electron and proton transfer to ATP synthesis (Saraste, 1999;Starkov, 2008).…”
