The effect of deforestation on the genetic diversity and structure in Acer saccharum (Marsh): Evidence for the loss and restructuring of genetic variation in a natural system

Abstract: The level and distribution of genetic diversity can be influenced by species life history traits and demographic factors, including perturbations that might produce population bottlenecks. Deforestation and forest fragmentation are common sources of population disturbance in contemporary populations of forest ecosystems. Although the genetic effects of forest fragmentation and deforestation have been examined by assessing levels of genetic variation in forest fragments that remain after logging, few considerat… Show more

“…SigniWcant eVects of fragmentation on genetic diVerentiation among populations have been conWrmed in several forest tree species (e.g. Bacles et al 2004;Persson et al 2004;Baucom et al 2005;Jump and Penuelas 2006;Arnaud-Haond et al 2006). In our study, the AMOVA based on nSSR data attributed all the among-population variability to the among-population within-region component (percentage of variance: 8%, P = 0.001), representing diVerentiation among the Apennine populations.…”

“…SigniWcant eVects of fragmentation on genetic diversity have been found in several forest tree species (e.g. Persson et al 2004;Rossetto et al 2004;Baucom et al 2005;Jump and Penuelas 2006;Arnaud-Haond et al 2006). However, most of the research on the eVects of fragmentation in forest trees has been conducted on tropical species, thought to be particularly vulnerable due to their demographic and reproductive characteristics.…”

“…Effects of fragmentation on genetic diversity, as loss of alleles and increase in inbreeding coefficient, have been also reported in some animal-pollinated tropical tree species, for example, Eucalyptus albens (Prober and Brown 1994), Pithecellobium elegans (Hall et al 1996), Symphonia globulifera (Aldrich et al 1998), and Swietenia humiles (White et al 1999). Forest logging has been also reported to reduce percent of polymorphic loci and allelic richness in a logged population compared to old-growth populations of temperate Acer sacchatum (Baucom et al 2005).…”

“…Por otra parte, es probable que ocurra una incorporación constante de individuos, con genotipos distintos, mediante la reproducción in situ pero posiblemente es a través de la dispersión de semillas promovida por diversas especies de aves que conjuntamente contribuyen a un aporte constante de variantes genéticas como se ha observado en otras plantas tropicales (Hamrick y Loveless, 1986 No obstante el posible el flujo genético entre las subpoblaciones hay una diferenciación moderada entre ellas, revelada por el estadístico F ST (0.25) y por la heterogeneidad de las frecuencias alélicas, lo cual puede ser reflejo de la influencia de factores que moldean la diversidad genética (Neigel, 2002). Estos factores pueden estar asociados a eventos de selección o deriva genética y estos a su vez con la historia de uso del bosque (Lande, 1999;Vornam et al, 2004;Baucom et al, 2005). Sin embargo, no se encontró evidencia de una relación entre el grado de perturbación con la diversidad genética.…”
