Primula tibetica Raw sequence reads

The effects of Quaternary climatic oscillations on the demography of organisms vary across regions and continents. In taxa distributed in Europe and North America several paradigms regarding the distribution of refugia have been identified. In contrast, less is known about the processes that shaped the species’ spatial genetic structure in areas such as the Himalayas, which is considered a biodiversity hotspot. Here, we investigated the phylogeographic structure and population dynamics of Primula tibetica by combining genomic phylogeography and species distribution models (SDMs).
