AbstractBased on the cDNA sequence encoding taxane 2α-O-benzoyltransferase (TBT) from Taxus yunnanensis (Gen-Bank Accession No.: AY970522), genomic sequences of TBTs from T. yunnanensis (TyTBT) and T. cuspidata (TcuTBT) were cloned for the first time. They both contain only one intron. The finding that the introns of TyTBT and TcuTBT are more diverse than their exons implies that the gene diversity is more within introns than within exons, which may be important for keeping the functions of the genes.

Abstract Taxus yunnanensis, which is an endangered tree that is considered valuable because it contains the effective natural anticancer metabolite taxol and heteropolysaccharides, has long suffered from severe habitat fragmentation. In this study, the levels of genetic diversity in two populations of 136 individuals were analyzed based on eleven polymorphic microsatellite loci. Our results suggested that these two populations were characterized by low genetic diversity (NE = 2.303/2.557; HO = 0.168/0.142; HE = 0.453/0.517), a population bottleneck, a low effective population size (Ne = 7/9), a high level of inbreeding (FIS = 0.596/0.702), and a weak, but significant spatial genetic structure (Sp = 0.001, b = −0.001*). Habitat fragmentation, seed shadow overlap and limited seed and pollen dispersal and potential selfing may have contributed to the observed gene tic structure. The results of the present study will enable development of practical conservation measures to effectively conserve the valuable genetic resources of this endangered plant.
