This study assessed the conservation status of 97 priority CWR in Northeast Africa through a comprehensive approach, incorporating ecogeographic data and complementarity analysis. The analysis of 4551 occurrence records from 57 CWR highlighted significant gaps in in situ conservation. Notably, the highest number of occurrence records within Protected Areas (PAs) were found in Ethiopia, particularly in Borena National Park, Kafa UNESCO-MAB Biosphere Reserve, and Bonga National Forest Priority Area. However, only 40 taxa (~ 42%) were identified within existing PAs, with Solanum campylacanthum Hochst. cx A. Rich, and Coffea arabica L. being the most prevalent. Ecogeographic Land Characterization (ELC) maps identified 45 distinct ecological zones representing the region’s diverse habitats. Ex situ analysis revealed 1295 occurrence records from 52 taxa (54%) conserved in genebanks, although only 8% of these taxa were represented by more than 50 accessions . S. camplyacanthum and Avena vaviloviana (Malz.) Mordv. had the highest number of accessions. Ecogeographical analysis indicated that ELC zones 8, 17, and 18 had the highest frequencies of occurrence in both PAs and genebanks. Complementarity analysis identified 34 potential genetic reserve areas, covering 42 taxa (43%), compared to 33 taxa conserved across 18 PAs identified by coverage analysis. These findings highlight the urgent need for a comprehensive CWR conservation strategy to protect valuable genetic diversity for future crop breeding programs, ultimately enhancing crop resilience in the face of ongoing and future agricultural challenges.","PeriodicalId":12467,"journal":{"name":"Genetic Resources and Crop Evolution","volume":"72 6","pages":"6421-6433"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s10722-025-02337-8.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147908639","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using reduced representation sequencing, 78 trees representing 57 cultivars plus 13 trees without varietal names from the USDA lychee collection on Hawai'i were analysed. We aimed to (1) understand the distribution of genetic variation, (2) ensure individuals of the same named variety were indeed likely the same cultivar, and (3) to identify cases of cultivar synonymy. After removing single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with substantial missing data, rare alleles and low confidence SNPs, analysis of ca. 10,400 SNPs was carried out. Genetic clustering and phylogenetic analysis identified two main groups which, based on existing data, represent the late and extremely early maturing cultivars, with many admixed individuals likely representing those with intermediate maturity times. A core set of 12 SNPs for cultivar identification were identified. Trees from the same named variety were not always closely related, representing misidentification. Similarly, some trees with different varietal names appear to be the same (i.e., synonymous cultivars); in some cases, this backed up existing knowledge about the transport and renaming of cultivars between countries. Based on genetic similarity, we found 13 groups of clones varying in size from 2-9 individuals. Fifty-five of the 91 trees (60%) were in these groups. Together, our data has the potential to inform the conservation of lychee accessions and backs up previous work that there are primarily two domesticated gene pools with a third group of accessions being admixed. Going forward, our results could lead to the improvement of lychee, a step in making it a staple crop.</p><p><strong>Supplementary information: </strong>The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s10722-025-02406-y.</p>","PeriodicalId":12467,"journal":{"name":"Genetic Resources and Crop Evolution","volume":"72 6","pages":"7373-7386"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12317860/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144783916","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
