Geographical variation and genetic diversity of Parashorea chinensis germplasm resources
Our finding indicated abundant phenotypic variation among <i>P. chinensis</i> germplasms. However, populations exhibited low levels of genetic diversity alongside high genetic differentiation, potentially contributing to the species' rarity. Based on our results, NP03 and ML02 germplasm could be used as the parents for breeding superior germplasm of <i>P. chinensis</i>. Overall, this study provides valuable insights into germplasm diversity and conservation, genetic improvement, and utilization of <i>P. chinensis</i>.
