“…The AMOVA indicated that geographic structuring and the percentage of variation were the lowest among lineages and the highest between populations. Thus, this pattern corresponds to the high genetic differentiation among populations of R. lagowskii, which is similar to results obtained in another amphibian and fish species in this region owing to the lower dispersal ability with the restricted gene flow and high differentiation (Blasco-Costa et al, 2012;Hardouin et al, 2018;Meng et al, 2014;Shao et al, 2019;Yu et al, 2014).…”

“…tsinlingensis , and populations with a star‐shaped haplotype network, such as that observed for R . lagowskii , are indicative of a classic postglacial expansion after a period of low effective population size, with rapid population growth enhancing the retention of new mutations, accumulating haplotype diversity, but lacking enough time to accumulate nucleotide diversity (Grant & Bowen, 1998; Hewitt, 1996; Liu et al, 2015; Shao et al, 2019).…”

“…LGM (Hewitt, 1996;Rowe et al, 2004). The high altitude region in the Qinling Mountains was also affected by Taibai glaciation (0.019 Ma) (Shi, 2002); however, the genetic diversity of R. lagowskii did not show the significant latitude and altitude decreasing trend often observed with other mussel, fish, amphibian, and mammal species in the Qinling Mountains and other regions of China (Hardouin et al, 2018;Li et al, 2021;Liu et al, 2015Liu et al, , 2017Shao et al, 2019;Wang et al, 2012;Xue et al, 2017;Yu et al, 2014) evolution (Kimura, 1977;Yang & Bielawski, 2000).

“…The Qinling Mountains represent a natural boundary between the northern and southern regions of the country and separate the Chinese temperate and subtropical climatic zones (Ding et al, 2013), resulting in differentiated terrestrial and freshwater fauna (Li, 1981;Zhang, 2011). Meanwhile, the rapid uplift of these mountains and climatic oscillation were influenced by the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau movement from the Miocene to the Pleistocene and have played important roles in influencing the phylogeographical patterns of a variety of organisms, including parasite, amphibian, fish, and mammal species (Chen et al, 2020;Hardouin et al, 2018;He et al, 1992;Hu et al, 2021;Huang et al, 2017;Li et al, 2021;Liu et al, 2015;Meng et al, 2014;Shao et al, 2019;Shi, 2002;Wang et al, 2012Wang et al, , 2013Yu et al, 2014;Zhang & Fang, 2012).…”

In this study, the phylogeographical pattern of the Amur minnow (Rhynchocypris lagowskii) widely distributed in the cold freshwaters of the Qinling Mountains was examined. A total of 464 specimens from 48 localities were sequenced at a 540bp region of the mitochondrial cytochrome b (Cytb) gene, and 69 haplotypes were obtained. The mean ratio of the number of synonymous and nonsynonymous substitutions per site (dN/dS) was 0.028 and indicated purifying selection. Haplotype diversity (h) and nucleotide diversity (π) of natural populations of R. lagowskii varied widely between distinct localities. Phylogenetic trees based on Bayesian inference (BI), maximum likelihood (ML), and maximum parsimony (MP) methods, and network analysis showed five well-differentiated lineages, but these did not completely correspond to localities and geographic distribution. Meanwhile, analysis of molecular variances (AMOVA) indicated the highest proportion of genetic variation was attributed to the differentiation between populations rather than by our defined lineages.In addition, there was no significant correlation between the pairwise Fst values and geographic distance (p > .05). Based on the molecular clock calibration, the time to the most recent common ancestor (TMRCA) was estimated to have emerged from the Late Miocene to the Early Pleistocene. Finally, the results of demographic history based on the neutrality test, mismatch distribution, and Bayesian skyline plot (BSP) analyses showed that collectively, the populations were stable during the Pleistocene while one lineage (lineage E) probably underwent a slight contraction during the Middle Pleistocene and a rapid expansion from the Middle to the Late Pleistocene.Therefore, the study suggests the current phylogeographical pattern of R. lagowskii was likely shaped by geological events that led to vicariance followed by dispersal and secondary contact, river capture, and climatic oscillation during the Late Miocene to the Early Pleistocene in the Qinling Mountains.
