Article Synopsis
- The uplift of the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau likely triggered the divergence of the subsect. Gerardianae, affecting the evolutionary history of three species: Pinus bungeana, P. gerardiana, and P. squamata.
- Pinus bungeana showed low nucleotide diversity and possibly originated in the southern Qinling Mountains, experiencing population growth since the Last Interglacial period.
- The divergence of these species occurred approximately 27.18 million years ago, linked to geological changes, and certain chloroplast genes displayed positive selection related to environmental adaptation.
