Abstract Changing climatic conditions are transforming the ecological and silvicultural roles of broadleaf tree species in northern Europe. Small-leaved lime (Tilia cordata Mill.) is distributed throughout most of Europe, and is a common broadleaf species in Latvia. This species can tolerate a broad range of environmental and ecological conditions, including temperature, water availability, and soil types. The aim of this study was to assess the genetic diversity and differentiation of Latvian T. cordata populations using nuclear microsatellite markers developed for Tilia platyphyllos. After testing of 15 microsatellite markers, Latvian T. cordata samples were genotyped at 14 micro-satellite loci. Latvian T. cordata populations had high genetic diversity, and were not overly isolated from each other, with moderate gene flow between populations. No highly differentiated populations were identified. Vegetative reproduction was identified in most analysed populations, and almost one-third of analysed individuals are of clonal origin. T. cordata has high timber production potential under the current climatic and growth conditions in Latvia, and therefore this species has potential for use in forestry, as well as playing a significant role in maintaining biodiversity and other ecosystem services.

Genetic Diversity And Structure

Abstract An understanding of the genetic diversity and structure of plant species is essential in order to comprehend the degree of biodiversity loss and to develop successful restoration programs. Handroanthus is an important genus that presents one of the most valuable timbers of South America. Handroanthus chrysanthus is an important species distributed in Central and South America. Microsatellite markers are not previously developed for this species. Ten microsatellites for Handroanthus chrysanthus developed using high-throughput sequencing are presented here. The usefulness of these microsatellite loci for the genetic analysis of subspecies H. chrysanthus subsp. chrysanthus (distributed in coastal dry forests) and subspecies H. chrysanthus subsp. meridionalis (distributed in premontane moist forests) is analyzed. At least eight polymorphic microsatellites are useful for each subspecies, seven of which can be used in both subspecies.

Pinus densiflora Siebold & Zucc. is a widely distributed conifer species in the Republic of Korea with economic and ecologic importance. However, P. densiflora is negatively influenced by various factors, such as forest fires, clearing of large numbers of trees infected with Pinus disease, and dieback. We aimed to use microsatellite markers to estimate the genetic diversity, differentiation, and structure of P. densiflora populations in the Republic of Korea. A total of 1844 samples from 60 populations were evaluated using 11 polymorphic microsatellite markers. The observed heterozygosity and expected heterozygosity were 0.652 and 0.673, respectively. The mean genetic differentiation among the populations was 0.013. Moreover, P. densiflora showed high genetic diversity and low genetic differentiation compared with conifer species, including Pinus species with similar life histories. Principal coordinates analysis and Bayesian clustering showed that P. densiflora has a weak geographical structure. The P. densiflora population at Mt. Halla, Jeju Island, showed the lowest genetic diversity and significant genetic differentiation compared with other mainland populations due to genetic drift and restricted gene flow. These findings can be useful for designing new conservation, management, and breeding strategies for P. densiflora populations in response to future environmental changes.
