Article Synopsis
- Dipterocarpoideae species, crucial for Asian rainforests, face severe threats; understanding their adaptation and decline is essential.
- Researchers sequenced the genomes of seven Dipterocarpoideae species to trace their evolutionary history, estimating key divergence times and identifying a whole genome duplication event that aided in their diversification.
- The study revealed a population expansion after the last glacial period followed by a significant decline linked to human activities, underscoring the impact of anthropogenic disturbances on their survival.
