Demographic history and identification of threats under climate and anthropogenic activity provide insights into conservation for Cypripedium palangshanense
Overall, we detected pressures under climate and anthropogenic activity and identified vulnerability hotspots (JZG2, SP1, SP2 and DB) requiring conservation priority. Alternatively, ecological niche modeling combined with RONA analysis suggests that the marginal population (CK and PW) is likely to have the highest risk of maladaptation in the future. Our findings highlight how population genomics, ecological and environmental data can be integrated to inform targeted conservation.
