Abstract

Population genetic study of Koompassia malaccensis, an important tropical timber tree species, was carried out using allozyme markers. Six natural populations, namely, Bukit Bandi, Bukit Lagong, Jerangau, Pasoh, Sungai Lalang and Sungai Menyala were investigated. The results showed that K. malaccensis harboured a higher level of allozyme
diversity (mean expected heterozygosity, He = 0.253, mean number of alleles per locus, Aa = 2.8 and effective
number of alleles per locus, Ae = 1.27), compared with other regionally distributed tropical long-lived tree
species. Majority of the diversity was partitioned within-population (Fst = 0.045). No correlation was detected
between geographical distance and genetic distance (Mantel test, r = -0.0031, p = 0.5130). Only one private
allele was detected in Sungai Lalang population.


Kajian populasi genetik bagi Koompassia malaccensis yang merupakan salah satu spesies kayu balak tropika yang penting telah dijalankan menggunakan penanda alozim. Sebanyak enam populasi semula jadi (Bukit Bandi, Bukit Lagong, Jerangau, Pasoh, Sungai Lalang and Sungai Menyala) telah dikaji. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahawa K. malaccensis
mempamerkan tahap kepelbagaian alozim yang lebih tinggi (min keheterozigotan jangkaan, He = 0.253, min bilangan alel setiap lokus, Aa = 2.8 dan bilangan efektif alel setiap lokus, Ae =1.27) berbanding dengan spesies pokok tropika berjangka hayat panjang di daerah yang sama. Majoriti daripada kepelbagaian tersebut ialah kepelbagaian dalam populasi (Fst = 0.045). Tiada korelasi didapati antara jarak geografi dengan jarak genetik (ujian Mantel, r = -0.0031, p = 0.5130). Hanya satu alel unik dikesan dalam populasi Sungai Lalang.
