Understanding geographic distribution of genetic diversification of bermudagrass along latitudinal and longitudinal gradients is favor of assessing genetic variation and diverse germplasm conservation. The study explored genetic variability and phylogeographic structure of 28 populations using three chloroplast intergenic spacer regions sequences. Bermudagrass populations at different latitudes exhibited a high level of genetic differentiation from populations at different longitudes. Populations at different latitudes indicated higher gene flow than populations at different longitudes, which attributed to higher genetic variation within population along the latitudinal gradient than longitudinal gradient. Contrast to apparent phylogeographic structure in populations along the latitudinal gradient, majority haplotypes sharing occurred in populations along the longitudinal gradient. Populations at high-latitudes showed distinct genetic diversity and haplotypes from populations at mid-latitudes. The Dabieshan and Nanling Mountains acted as the geographic barriers along the latitudinal gradient, leading to the intraspecific phylogeographic subdivision and divergence.

It generated an average income of US$D 80 during the vegetable harvesting season, per individual seller. This species has numerous applications for not only rural dwellers, but also for those in urban areas where it is used for food, healthcare and arts. However, the plant is overexploited by users of this multipurpose species. Among the threatening factors are bushfires and the low natural regeneration due to poor seed germination caused by seed dormancy. This overexploitation will induce the depletion and disappearance of the species in its natural habitat, thus causing an ecological imbalance and genetic erosion. The conservation of this species must therefore be done through its preservation in the natural environment, production, domestication and awareness of the populations. In this work, we review the existing literature on the species, focusing on geographic distribution, utilisation and threats to natural populations, propagation and agronomy, national and international trade, conservation of genetic resources, prospects for domestication and commercial production, and methods for genetic improvement.

Research on the floral and reproductive biology of these plants is crucial to understanding its taxonomy, conservation, and breeding. This study aimed to characterize the pollen and stigma morphology and assess pollen viability and stigma receptivity of seven <i>Hohenbergia</i> species with potential for landscaping and cut flowers. These evaluations were carried out using distinct methods at different stages of floral development, as they are innovative for these <i>Hohenbergia</i> species. For morphological analysis, pollen was examined using scanning electron microscopy and subjected to lactic acetolysis. Additionally, pollen viability was tested through in vitro germination and histochemical testing. We assessed stigma receptivity at various floral development stages. We also determined the amount of pollen grains for each species. All these species produced monad pollen, which were either heteropolar or isopolar, circular or elliptical, with various pore sizes, shapes, and number (bi- or triporate). These grains featured an ornamented aperture membrane and differences in the exine and its ornamentation. The stigmas of <i>Hohenbergia</i> species are conduplicate-spiral. Pollen demonstrated the highest viability at anthesis. Both methods for assessing stigma receptivity indicated increased enzyme activity at anthesis across all species.
