The neighbor-joining (NJ) dendrogram based on AFLP markers revealed the well-defined clusters (bootstrap value = 100%) of I. asiatica. Results from the principal component analysis are largely congruent with those obtained in the NJ dendrogram. The maximum parsimony analysis, based on data from nrITS and three chloroplast DNA sequences, supported a monophyly of three species, I. asiatica, Isoëtes echinospora, and Isoëtes maritima from Hokkaido, Kamchatka, and Alaska regions. The distinct species status of I. asiatica was also well supported in the combined chloroplast DNA phylogeny. Therefore, I. asiatica appear to represent example of gradual speciation due to spatial isolation of ancestral populations followed by genetic divergence. Our results also suggest that I. asiatica is probably not the ancestral diploid of the polyploids occurring in East Asia. © The Botanical Society of Korea 2009.10aAFLP10aChloroplast DNA10aI. asiatica10aIsoetes10aMolecular phylogeny10aNrITS1 aKim, C.1 aNa, H.R.1 aShin, H.1 aChoi, H.-K.  uhttp://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-71249137227&partnerID=40&md5=029dcd01eab0eacc2d8c97b3953cb1ba02543nas a2200229   4500008004100000245016000041210006900201260001200270300001400282490000800296520175700304653000902061653001202070653002202082653001202104653001402116653002502130100001202155700001302167700001602180856011702196       2009                        eng d00aGenetic diversity and population structure of diploid and polyploid species of isoetes in east asia based on amplified fragment length polymorphism markers0 aGenetic diversity and population structure of diploid and polypl  c2009///  a496 - 5040 v1703 aIsoetes L. is critically endangered in areas of East Asia, including Taiwan, Japan, and South Korea. The genetic diversity and the population structure of six Isoetes species from East Asia were evaluated by using amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP). Three AFLP-selective primer combinations generated a total 923 amplification products, of which 919 (99.6%) were polymorphic. The levels of genetic diversity of two diploid species (I. taiwanensis [percentage of polymorphic loci (PPL) = 33.1%-38.3%] and I. asiatica [PPL = 49.0%]) are higher than those of polyploid species (tetraploid: I. jejuensis [PPL = 9.3%-29.3%] and I. hallasanensis [PPL = 22.3%]; hexaploid: I. coreana [PPL = 1.6%-20.6%] and I. japonica [PPL = 5.6%-20.5%]). Higher genetic differentiation was detected for populations of I. coreana (0B = 0.730) than for the diploid species I. taiwanensis (0B = 0.074). In addition, analysis of molecular variance showed that a large proportion (79.8%) of genetic differentiation existed among population of I. coreana. However, 93.2% of the total genetic variation was attributed to differentiation within populations of I. taiwanensis. A neighbor-joining dendrogram resulted in three clusters, one for I. asiatica, one for I. japonica, and one for the rest of the species, subdivided into two: (1) I. taiwanensis/I. jejuensis and (2) I. coreana/I. hallasanensis. Furthermore, individuals from each population of I. coreana and I. jejuensis were clustered into population-specific subclusters. The probable causes of the current pattern of genetic variation and population structure are discussed, and suggestions on the future protection of Isoetes species are also given. © 2009 by The University of Chicago.

Genetic variation among eight subpopulations of I. sinensis was examined in the Xin'an River (119°14′-15′E, 29°28′N) by using allozyme polymorphism. Eighteen loci of 10 enzyme systems were examined and used for the analysis of population genetic parameters. As expected for allotetraploids, fixed heterozygosity was found at four loci. A high level of genetic diversity was observed in the population, with mean number of alleles per loci of 1.8, and mean percentage of polymorphic loci of 55.6%, which were much higher than the average values in fern species. The genetic variation within each subpopulation was not positively correlated with its size, which may be explained by high gene flow (Nm = 2.57), clonal reproduction and fixed heterozygosity of allopolyploid. The I. sinensis population contained high clonal diversity (PD = 0.39, D = 0.95), indicating the successful seedling recruitment of the population. Significant positive relationship was detected between clonal diversity and the size of subpopulation. Partitioning the genetic diversity indicated that 91.1% of the genetic variation was within subpopulations and only 8.9% existed among subpopulations. The migration pattern of I. sinensis along the Xin'an River is best explained by a source-sink model, but with unidirectional gene flow among subpopulations underlined by hydrochoric force. The results were then discussed in relation to both in situ and ex situ conservation efforts of the population. © 2008 Elsevier B.V.
