Abstract

White forsythia or Abeliophyllum distichum Nakai (Oleaceae) is the only member in its genus and is an endangered shrub endemic, with limited and fragmented distribution, to the Korean Peninsula. Due to its endemicity and distribution status, several populations of the species have been designated as Korean natural monuments, an IUCN Category III protected area. More recently, the species’ genomic variation and structure, and the demographic history of divergence of its genetic groups were investigated. In our current work, we look into the species’ genetic-landscape pattern, interpopulation connectivity, individual genetic group population size change history, and the species’ future distribution using SNPs and RAD loci datasets. Here, we provide the raw genomic data derived from high throughput sequencing of reduced representation libraries of 135 A. distichum individuals across nine natural populations (15 samples per population, including those from five natural monuments habitats) of the species. The libraries were prepared using the GBS protocol and demultiplexed using the Stacks 2 software to generate a dataset of fastq files for each sample. These datasets have been employed in our current study with the running title “Population connectivity and size reductions in the Anthropocene: the consequence of landscapes and historical bottlenecks in white forsythia fragmented habitats” submitted to the BMC Journal of Ecology and Evolution.
