BACKGROUND: South China encompasses complex and diverse landforms, giving rise to high biological diversity and endemism from the Hengduan Mountains to Taiwan Island.

To explore the causes of these disjunct distribution patterns and their genetic consequences, we investigated the endemic species Père David's...
