Oceanic currents, not land masses, maintain the genetic structure of the mangrove Rhizophora mucronata Lam. (Rhizophoraceae) in Southeast Asia by Wee, Alison K. S., Takayama, Koji, Asakawa, Takeshi, Thompson, Bijoy, Onrizal, Sungkaew, Sarawood, Tung, Nguyen Xuan, Salleh@Japri, Mohd Nazre, Soe, Khin Khin, Tan, Hugh T. W., Watano, Yasuyuki, Baba, Shigeyuki, Kajita, Tadashi, Webb, Edward L.

“…We first examined the relative effects of geographical distance and land mass (the Malay Peninsula) in shaping the genetic structure of R. mucronata in Southeast Asia. …”

Genetic structure and population demographic history of a widespread mangrove plant Xylocarpus granatum J. Koenig across the Indo-West Pacific region by Tomizawa, Yuki, Tsuda, Yoshiaki, Saleh @ Japri, Mohd Nazre, Wee, Alison K. S., Takayama, Koji, Yamamoto, Takashi, Yllano, Orlex Baylen, Salmo III, Severino G., Sungkaew, Sarawood, Adjie, Bayu, Ardli, Erwin, Suleiman, Monica, Nguyen, Xuan Tung, Soe, Khin Khin, Kandasamy, Kathiresan, Asakawa, Takeshi, Watano, Yasuyuki, Baba, Shigeyuki, Kajita, Tadashi

“…These results revealed that in addition to the Malay Peninsula—a common land barrier for mangroves—there is a genetic barrier in an oceanic region of the West Pacific that prevents gene flow among populations. …”
