Abstract In order to determine the population genetic structure of wild rice (Oryza
officinalis Wall. ex Watt.), an endangered tropical and subtropical species,
allozyme diversity encoded by 24 loci was analyzed electrophoretically in 145
individuals of eight natural populations from Hainan, Guangxi, and Yunnan
provinces, China. A fairly high genetic differentiation (F(ST) = 0.882 and mean
I = 0.786) was found among the studied populations. Our results suggest that
restricted gene flow may play a significant role in shaping such a population
genetic structure. In addition, high genetic differentiation among populations
within a geographically limited region may stem from a reduced population size
and consequent genetic drift.
