Exploring evolutionary history and predicting adaptive potential using genomic data will facilitate species conservation and biodiversity recovery. Here, we examined the genome evolution of a critically endangered tree <i>Pellacalyx yunnanensis</i>, a plant species with extremely small populations (PSESP) that is narrowly distributed in Xishuangbanna, China. The species has neared extinction due to economic exploitation in recent decades. We assembled a chromosome-level genome of 334 Mb, with the N50 length of 20.5 Mb. Using the genome, we discovered that <i>P. yunnanensis</i> has undergone several population size reductions, leading to excess deleterious mutations. The species may possess low adaptive potential due to reduced genetic diversity and the loss of stress-responsive genes. We estimate that <i>P. yunnanensis</i> is the basal species of its genus and diverged from its relatives during global cooling, suggesting it was stranded in unsuitable environments during periods of dramatic climate change. In particular, the loss of seed dormancy leads to germination under unfavourable conditions and reproduction challenges. This dormancy loss may have occurred through genetic changes that suppress ABA signalling and the loss of genes involved in seed maturation. The high-quality genome has also enabled us to reveal phenotypic trait evolution in Rhizophoraceae and identify divergent adaptation to intertidal and inland habitats. In summary, our study elucidates mechanisms underlying the decline and evaluates the adaptive potential of <i>P. yunnanensis</i> to future climate change, informing future conservation efforts.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":211,"journal":{"name":"Molecular Ecology Resources","volume":"25 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2024-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142685385","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In population genetic analyses of clonally reproducing organisms, it is common practice to retain only a single representative per multilocus genotype. Though this practice of clone correction is widespread, the theoretical justification behind it has been very little studied. Here, I use individual-based simulations to study the effect of clone correction on the estimation of the genetic summary statistics <i>H</i><sub>O</sub>, <i>H</i><sub>S</sub>, <i>F</i><sub>IS</sub>, <i>F</i><sub>ST</sub>, <i>F</i>′′<sub>ST</sub> and <i>D</i><sub>est</sub>. The simulations follow the standard finite island model, consisting of a set of populations connected by gene flow, but with a variable rate of sexual versus asexual reproduction. The results of the simulations show that by itself, the inclusion of replicated genotypes does not lead to a deviation in the values of the summary statistics, except when the rate of sexual reproduction is less than about one in thousand. However, clone correction can introduce a strong deviation in the values of most of the statistics, when compared to a scenario of full sexual reproduction. For <i>H</i><sub>S</sub> and <i>F</i><sub>IS</sub>, this deviation can be informative about the process of asexual reproduction, but for <i>F</i><sub>ST</sub>, <i>F</i>′′<sub>ST</sub> and <i>D</i><sub>est</sub>, clone correction can lead to incorrect conclusions. I therefore argue that clone correction is not strictly necessary, but can in some cases be insightful.
