  • Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers were used to analyze genetic variation of Podocarpus imbricatus
    in Hainan Island and Mainland of China. Two populations of Dacrydium pierrei
    were used as comparison materials. Both Podocarpus imbricatus
    and Dacrydium pierrei
    showed a low level of genetic diversity. However, Podocarpus imbricatus
    showed higher genetic diversity and higher population differentiation than Dacrydium pierrei
    . The geographic range may affect the genetic diversity of Podocarpus imbricatus
    and Dacrydium pierrei
    significantly. The UPGMA cluster tree showed that populations of Podocarpus imbricatus
    in Hainan Island and Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region were closer than those in Yunnan Province, indicating possible gene flow between Hainan Island and Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. The young geological history of Hainan Island and the three times of unification and separation between Hainan Island and the Mainland may give the two species more possibilities of gene flow.
