Table Mountain Pine (Pinus pungens): Genetic Diversity and Conservation of an Imperiled Conifer

Potter, K. M., Jetton, R. M., Whittier, W. A., Crane, B. S., Hipkins, V. D., Echt, C. S., & Hodge, G. R. (2022, December 12). FOREST SCIENCE, Vol. 12.

By: K. Potter n, R. Jetton n, W. Whittier n, B. Crane*, V. Hipkins*, C. Echt*, G. Hodge n

author keywords: Gene conservation; inbreeding; microsatellite; population isolation; rare species; sampling
TL;DR: The results of seedling sampling simulations demonstrated that it may be possible to meet the goals of conservation plantings by including fewer families per population and/or including families without regard to population. (via Semantic Scholar)

2011 journal article

Widespread inbreeding and unexpected geographic patterns of genetic variation in eastern hemlock (Tsuga canadensis), an imperiled North American conifer

Conservation Genetics, 13(2), 475–498.

By: K. Potter n, R. Jetton n, W. Dvorak n, V. Hipkins*, R. Rhea* & W. Whittier n

author keywords: Phylogeography; Pleistocene; Migration; Population genetics; Microsatellite; Bottleneck
TL;DR: Efforts to conserve eastern hemlock genetic material should emphasize the capture of broad adaptability that occurs across the geographic range of the species, as well as genetic variability within regions with the highest allelic richness and heterozygosity, such as the Southern Appalachians and New England, and within disjunct populations that are genetically distinct.

2008 review

Ecological and genetic factors that define the natural distribution of Carolina hemlock in the southeastern United States and their role in ex situ conservation

[Review of ]. FOREST ECOLOGY AND MANAGEMENT, 255(8-9), 3212–3221.

By: R. Jetton*, W. Dvorak* & W. Whittier

author keywords: Tsuga caroliniana; gene conservation; Adelges tsugae
TL;DR: Results indicate that based on analysis of 15 populations, Carolina hemlock is found on predominantly sandy-clay loam soils but occurs on a wider range of soil textural groups than previously thought. (via Semantic Scholar)

2007 journal article

Allozyme variation and recent evolutionary history of eastern hemlock (Tsuga canadensis) in the southeastern United States

New Forests, 35(2), 131–145.

By: K. Potter n, W. Dvorak n, B. Crane*, V. Hipkins*, R. Jetton n, W. Whittier n, R. Rhea*

author keywords: genetic diversity; gene conservation; migration; threatened species; allozyme
TL;DR: The results suggest that the glacial refuge area for eastern hemlock was likely located east of the southern Appalachian Mountains, and indicate that ex situ conservation seed collections should be concentrated in these areas of higher diversity. (via Semantic Scholar)
