Abstract

Close
- The climate of the world’s arctic regions, including the poles and the Tibetan plateau region, act as a bellwether for global change. On the Tibetan plateau, there are numerous species well adapted to cold environments. The Chinese Grouse and Hazel Grouse are sibling species distributed in the Eurasian subarctic forests of the Tibetan plateau respectively. Conservation genomics are transforming our understanding of organismal responses in a changing Arctic boreal forest. In this study, we used 29 individuals from the sister species Chinese Grouse and Hazel Grouse from the boreal forest in Eurasia. Our results provide insights into the genetic diversity and differentiation in to different geographic populations of the two species. Full genome sequencing of samples covering the distribution area of grouse species throughout the Eurasian boreal forest has enabled us to provide the first analysis of the population structure and introgression. Through selective sweep analysis, we detected that the Chinese Grouse inhabiting the QTP high altitude environment show evidence of having evolved adaptations to hypobaric hypoxia and high ultraviolet radiation.
