Domestication and geographic origin of O ryza sativa in C hina: insights from multilocus analysis of nucleotide variation of O . sativa and O . rufipogon - Xin Wei; Wei‐Hua Qiao; You‐Tao Chen; Rong‐Sheng Wang; Li‐Rong Cao; Wan‐Xia Zhang; Nan‐Nan Yuan; Zi‐Chao Li; Han‐Lai Zeng; Qing‐Wen Yang (Molecular Ecology, 2012)
Previous studies have indicated that C hina is one of the domestication centres of A sian cultivated rice ( O ryza sativa ), and common wild rice ( O . rufipogon ) is the progenitor of O . sativa . However, the number of domestication times and the geographic origin of A sian cultivated rice in C hina are still under debate. In this study, 100 accessions of A sian cultivated rice and 111 accessions of common wild rice in C hina were selected to examine the relationship between O . sativa and O . rufipogon and thereby infer the domestication and evolution of O . sativa in C hina through sequence analyses of six gene regions, trn C ‐ycf6 in chloroplast genomes, cox3 in mitochondrial genomes and ITS , E hd1 , W axy , H d1 in nuclear genomes. The results indicated that the two subspecies of O . sativa (indica and japonica) were domesticated independently from different populations of O . rufipogon with gene flow occurring later from japonica to indica; S outhern C hina was the genetic diversity centre of O . rufipogon , and the P earl R iver basin near the T ropic of C ancer was the domestication centre of O . sativa in C hina.

Provenance and thermal history of the Bayan Har Group in the western‐central Songpan–Ganzi–Bayan Har terrane: Implications for tectonic evolution of the northern Tibetan Plateau - Guo‐Can Wang; Robert P. Wintsch; John I. Garver; Mary Roden‐Tice; She‐Fa Chen; Ke‐Xin Zhang; Qi‐Xiang Lin; Yun‐Hai Zhu; Shu‐Yuan Xiang; De‐Wei Li (Island Arc, 2009)
Triassic turbidites dominate the Songpan–Ganzi–Bayan Har (SGBH) terrane of the northern Tibetan Plateau. U‐Pb dating on single detrital zircon grains from the Triassic Bayan Har Group turbidites yield peaks at 400–500 m.y., 900–1000 m.y., 1800–1900 m.y., and 2400–2500 m.y., These results are consistent with recently published U‐Pb zircon ages of pre‐Triassic bedrock in the East Kunlun, Altyn, Qaidam, Qilian and Alaxa areas to the north, suggesting that provenance of the Bayan Har Group may include these rocks. The similarities in the compositions of the lithic arkosic sandstones of the Bayan Har Group with the sandstones of the Lower‐Middle Triassic formations in the East Kunlun terrane to the north also suggests a common northern provenance for both. A well exposed angular unconformity between the Carboniferous–Middle Permian mélange sequences and the overlying Upper Permian or Triassic strata indicates that regional deformation occurred between the Middle and Late Permian. This deformation may have been the result of a soft collision between the Qiangtang terrane and the North China Plate and the closure of the Paleo‐Tethyan oceanic basin. The Bayan Har Group turbidites were then deposited in a re‐opened marine basin on a shelf environment. Fission‐track dating of detrital zircons from the Bayan Har Group sandstones revealed pre‐ and post‐depositional age components, suggesting that the temperatures did not reach the temperatures necessary to anneal retentive zircon fission tracks (250–300°C). A 282–292 m.y. peak age defined by low U concentration, retentive zircons likely reflects a northern granitic source. Euhedral zircons from two lithic arkoses with abundant volcanic fragments in the southern area yielded a ∼237 m.y. zircon fission track (ZFT) peak age, likely recording the maximum age of deposition. A dominant post‐depositional 170–185 m.y. ZFT peak age suggests peak temperatures were reached in the Early Jurassic. Some samples appear to record a younger thermal event at ∼140 m.y., a short lived event that apparently affected only the least retentive zircons.

Genetic Differences between Wild and Artificial Populations of Metasequoia glyptostroboides : Implications for Species Recovery - YUAN‐YUAN LI; XIAO‐YONG CHEN; XIN ZHANG; TIAN‐YI WU; HUI‐PING LU; YUE‐WEI CAI (Conservation Biology, 2005)
Information on population genetics is fundamental to developing in situ or ex situ conservation strategies. Few researchers, however, have compared the genetic structure of restored and natural populations of threatened plant species. Metasequoia glyptostroboides Hu & Cheng (dawn redwood) (Taxodiaceae), a living fossil endemic to China, may be the most successfully recovered threatened species, with many more individuals and a much wider distribution than fossil records indicate. We used random amplification of polymorphic DNA markers to compare the genetic structure of artificial populations with that of wild ones and to determine whether the genetic structure of M. glyptostroboides has been recovered as has its distribution. The genetic variation of wild populations of M. glyptostroboides was lower than the average of gymnosperms, indicating the effects of glaciations and recent habitat loss and fragmentation. Genetic variation in artificial populations was less, but not substantially, compared with wild populations. The unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean revealed that the wild and the artificial populations formed two distinct groups. Artificial populations were more similar to each other (mean Nei's genetic distance = 0.0924) than to wild populations (mean distance = 0.2054). This might be the result of biased seed collection, vegetative propagation, or a mixture of propagules from different populations and an ultimate propagule source. These results suggest that although the quantity and distribution range have been successfully restored, the genetic structure of M. glyptostroboides has not recovered appropriately, given the loss of genetic variation and biased genetic composition in artificial populations. Therefore, in addition to protecting the wild populations, additional ex situ genetic reserves should be established based on genetic knowledge and via appropriate approaches. We suggest that population genetic and demographic indices should be considered when downlisting or delisting threatened species.
