abstract = {Limited data are available on genetic structures of the herbaceous plant species populations inhabiting mountainous areas of Siberia and North-Eastern Asian (Russian Far East). Although this area was not directly impacted by the extensive ice-sheets during the Quaternary, it experienced significant climatic fluctuations that influenced rich local flora. Orostachys spinosa (Crassulaceae) lacks any adaptations for long-distance dispersal, yet the species is characterized by an unusually wide range spanning from the Urals to the coast of the Pacific Ocean. We studied O. spinosa phylogeography and genetic diversity across its range sampling 203 individuals from 21 natural and 4 horticultural populations. Using sequences from three chloroplast DNA non-coding regions, we revealed 86 haplotypes and observed high level of population differentiation indicating presence of the phylogeographic structure (GST = 0.501 and NST = 0.822 (p <0.01)). In concordance with the previous phylogenetic analyses based on ITS rDNA data, parsimony network revealed two distinct cpDNA haplotype lineages deferring in their structure and characteristics of genetic diversity. The split between these haplotype groups can be dated to the Early Pliocene (ca. 3.6 Mya). According to our estimates diversification in the Western group of populations took place ca. 1 Mya earlier than in the Eastern group (3.1 Mya and 2.26 Mya, respectively). Apart from the generally accepted notion about East-Asian origin of O. spinosa, our results indicated that the species could have originated in mountains of Southern Siberia (Altai) that it reached independently from O. thyrsiflora having largely overlapping distribution there.}
