Premise: (Cupressaceae) is a critically endangered conifer native to China, Laos, and Vietnam, with only a few populations remaining in the wild.

Methods And Results: Using a complete chloroplast genome sequence, we designed 70 cpSSR loci and tested them for amplification success and polymorphism in 16 samples. Ten loci were found to be polymorphic and their genetic diversity was characterized using a total of 83 individuals from three populations in China.

In view of this, instead of simply aggregating traffic conditions with the same traffic volume, we represent potential conflict risks at a traffic flow fundamental diagram.
