West‐To‐East Unidirectional Gene Flow Maintains Genetic Diversity in Eastern Populations of <i>Nitraria sibirica</i> in China
Summary statement Genomic analyses of Nitraria sibirica reveal that unidirectional gene flow along the Yellow River maintains genetic diversity in fragmented eastern populations. This highlights the river's critical role as a dispersal corridor in counteracting genetic drift and supporting adaptive potential.
