    Maintenance and conservation of Dipterocarp diversity in tropical forests _______________________________________________ Mohammad Nazrin B Abdul Malik A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Science Department of Animal and Plant Sciences November 2019 1 i Thesis abstract Many theories and hypotheses have been developed to explain the maintenance of diversity in plant communities, particularly in hyperdiverse tropical forests. Maintenance of the composition and diversity of tropical forests is vital, especially species of high commercial value. I focus on the high value dipterocarp timber species of Malaysia and Borneo as these have been extensive logged owing to increased demands from global timber trade. In this thesis, I explore the drivers of diversity of this group, as well as the determinants of global abundance, conservation and timber value. The most widely supported hypothesis for explaining tropical diversity is the Janzen Connell hypothesis. I experimentally tested the key elements of this, namely density and distance dependence, in two dipterocarp species. The results showed that different species exhibited different density and distance dependence effects. To further test the strength of this hypothesis, I conducted a meta-analysis combining multiple studies across tropical and temperate study sites, and with many species tested. It revealed significant support for the Janzen- Connell predictions in terms of distance and density dependence. Using a phylogenetic comparative approach, I highlight how environmental adaptation affects dipterocarp distribution, and the relationships of plant traits with ecological factors and conservation status. This analysis showed that environmental and ecological factors are related to plant traits and highlights the need for dipterocarp conservation priorities.

Department of Forest Sciences, Seoul National University, 08826, Republic of Korea Abstract: AFoCo (Asian Forest Cooperation) Project in 2011 has funded a research and development project in Malaysia for enriching a mono-species stand established in an ex-tin mine. The project covered only for a period of 12 months. A study plot of 1 ha size was established in TTAC (Tin Tailings Afforestation Centre). Twenty indigenous tropical rainforest tree species were planted and their five year-old survival count, diameter and H (top height) growths are reported in this study. Some of them are red list species of IUCN (International Union of Conservation of Nature). The survival of the 1 ha planting trial was 53%. Mortality of the tree species is mainly caused by wild boars. The tropical rainforest tree species in this planting trial had similar growth to those planted at good mineral soils. This paper also documented the tending treatments which were implemented during post-planting that have contributed to healthy growth of the mixed-species stand.

    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Exploring evolution and diversity of Chinese Dipterocarpaceae using next-generation sequencing Received: 10 October 2018 Tijana Cvetković1, Damien Daniel Hinsinger 1,3 & Joeri Sergej Strijk 1,2,3 Accepted: 1 August 2019 Tropical forests, a key-category of land ecosystems, are faced with the world’s highest levels of Published: xx xx xxxx habitat conversion and associated biodiversity loss. In tropical Asia, Dipterocarpaceae are one of the economically and ecologically most important tree families, but their genomic diversity and evolution remain understudied, hampered by a lack of available genetic resources. Southern China represents the northern limit for Dipterocarpaceae, and thus changes in habitat ecology, community composition and adaptability to climatic conditions are of particular interest in this group. Phylogenomics is a tool for exploring both biodiversity and evolutionary relationships through space and time using plastome, nuclear and mitochondrial genome. We generated full plastome and Nuclear Ribosomal Cistron (NRC) data for Chinese Dipterocarpaceae species as a frst step to improve our understanding of their ecology and evolutionary relationships. We generated the plastome of Dipterocarpus turbinatus, the species with the widest distribution using it as a baseline for comparisons with other taxa. Results showed low level of genomic diversity among analysed range-edge species, and diferent evolutionary history of the incongruent NRC and plastome data. Genomic resources provided in this study will serve as a starting point for future studies on conservation and sustainable use of these dominant forest taxa, phylogenomics and evolutionary studies. Forests hold more than 75 percent of the world’s terrestrial biodiversity and provide products and services for socioeconomic development of millions of people1.

  • Plants and Vegetation of the Maliau Basin Conservation Area, Sabah
    Plants and Vegetation of the Maliau Basin Conservation Area, Sabah, East Malaysia Campbell O. Webb1 & Sidkan Ali2 Final Report to Maliau Basin Management Committee May 2002 [1] Dept. of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06511, USA Email:<[email protected]> [2] Innoprise Corp. Sdn. Bhd., Sabah, Malaysia 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Maliau Basin area is a tremendously valuable botanical resource for Sabah. During 2 years of botanical work, we collected over 1,100 fertile specimens, set up 35, 0.2-ha vegetation plots, and trained 8 YS staff members in botanical methods. From the tree plots, we estimate that there are ca. 1,010 tree species (> 10 cm DBH) in the basin, and we have collated a checklist of 1,800 species from ours and previous studies, which include 54 species mentioned in the IUCN red data book. A number of new species and records have been recorded at MBCA, and many more can be expected as specialists examine our collections. We have revised the forest classification system to include 12 forest types: Lowland, Floodplain, Hill, Upland clay, Riparian, Upland sandy ridge, Agathis, Montane, Heath, Short Heath, Casaurina, and Moss. The Maliau Basin is extremely valuable as a conservation resource because of i) the range of habitats represented, ii) the genetic diversity within species that occur throughout this habitat range, iii) its relative isolation from other montane conservation areas, and iv) the lowland forest it contains. It is also a unique educational and research resource. Maliau Basin Botany 2 2. CONTENTS 1.

This growth, study used several parameters to observe the growth of 20-years old stand S. pinanga Shorea pinanga, and S. platyclados, including diameter, total tree height, Mean Annual Increment (MAI), Shorea platyclados % of fruiting trees, Leaf Area Index (LAI), altitude, and slope. The study results were analyzed using one-way variance analysis (ANOVA) and Duncan test with a 95% Article history: confidence level. The results showed that S. platyclados significantly had a higher Received: diameter (32.7 cm), height (19.1 m), and mean volume (0.43 m3) compared to S. pinanga. 15 September 2020; The growth of S. platyclados, which locally known as meranti bukit is strongly supported Revised: by conditions in Gunung Dahu Research Forest, which has an altitude of about 800 m.asl. 12 November 2020; On the other hand, S.
