Assessment of genetic conservation units of an endangered glacial relict insular species, Amentotaxus formosana, based on fine-scale genetic structures of multiple fragmented mount... by Ya-Zhu Ko, Huie-Chuan Shih, Chin-Shang Ho, Chaur-Tzuhn Chen, Tsai-Wen Hsu, Meng-Shin Shiao, Yu-Chung Chiang, Yu-Chung Chiang

“…Additionally, demographic analysis suggested a substantial downfall in effective population sizes and limited gene flow within and between populations. Based on these findings, we recommend several management strategies to ensure the effective preservation of A. formosana: (1) establishing genetic conservation units corresponding to distinct genetic clusters in the CHA (CG-8-1 to CG-8-8), DAWU (DG-15-1 to DG-15-15), and DL (LG-6-1 to LG-6-6) populations; (2) implementing interpopulation cross-breeding programs to enhance genetic diversity; (3) promoting habitat restoration efforts to establish connectivity among fragmented populations; and (4) implementing vegetative propagation of selected trees for ex-situ conservation, along with establishing conservation nurseries and seed production areas. …”
