Late Pleistocene lineage divergence among populations ofNeolitsea sericea(Lauraceae) across a deep sea‐barrier in the Ryukyu Islands

Abstract: Aim  Our goals were: (1) to assess the population genetic structure and demographic divergence history of a bird‐dispersed tree, Neolitsea sericea, endemic to East Asian land‐bridge islands; and (2) to interpret the results in the light of controversies over the dating and configurations of land bridges through the Japanese Ryukyu Island Arc. Location  Japan–Ryukyu–Taiwan Island Arc and Chinese/Korean offshore islands. Methods  We applied 10 nuclear microsatellites (nSSRs) and one chloroplast (cp) DNA sequence… Show more

“…2). Based on our results, we suspect physical barriers to past or contemporary dispersal (e.g., the Mekong-Salween divide in Hengduan Mountains region for Sinopodophyllum hexandrum 34; the East China Sea/Tsushima-Korean straits for Croomia 35; the Tokara Gap, a deep sea-barrier in the Ryukyu Islands, for Neolitsea sericea 36) have had limited influence on the distributions of the R. sericea . In fact, the relative uniformity among geographic distributions of genotypes suggests sudden demographic expansion, and this type of pattern has been reported recently in Hippuris vulgaris (Plantaginaceae)37, an aquatic herb distributed on the QTP and in adjacent areas.…”

“…Our data do not allow us to pinpoint these overall rare instances of inter-regional gene exchange to one factor or time; however, they might be associated with contraction/expansion dynamics at rather localized scales during the mid-to-late Pleistocene. The complex topography of subtropical China would have strengthened the phylogeographic structure by limiting gene flow (Qiu et al, 2011), and its breeding system (dioecy) may have imposed additional constraints on gene flow after long-distance dispersal (Rodr ıguez-S anchez et al, 2009;Zhai et al, 2012).…”

“…Populations of species with patchy or discontinuous distributions, such as those on islands, may experience pronounced genetic isolation leading to patterns of deep genetic divergence among populations (Sarthou, Samadi & Boisselier-Dubayle, 2001;Beheregaray et al, 2003;Juan et al, 2004;Barbará et al, 2007;Measey et al, 2007;Zhai et al, 2012). Terrestrial islands, such as granite outcrops and banded iron formations (BIFs), provide particularly interesting study systems, as the matrix between islands may be permeable, resulting in potentially complex spatial and temporal patterns of genetic structure (Masta, 2000;Robin, Sinha & Ramakrishnan, 2010).…”
