({A}mborellaceae, {A}mborellales), the sole living member of the sister group to all other extant angiosperms, is endemic to {N}ew {C}aledonia. {W}e addressed the intraspecific phylogeography of {A}mborella by investigating whether its present population genetic structure could be related to its current and past habitats. {W}e found moderate range-wide genetic diversity based on nuclear microsatellite data and detected four well-differentiated, geographically distinct genetic groups using {B}ayesian clustering analyses. {W}e modelled the ecological niche of {A}mborella based on the current climatic and environmental conditions. {T}he predictive ability of the model was very good throughout the {C}entral {E}ast mainland zone, but {A}mborella was predicted in the northern part of the island where this plant has not been reported. {F}urthermore, no significant barrier was detected based on habitat suitability that could explain the genetic differentiation across the area. {C}onversely, we found that the main genetic clusters could be related to the distribution of the suitable habitat at the last glacial maximum ({LGM}, c. 21000years {BP}), when {A}mborella experienced a dramatic 96.5% reduction in suitable area. {A}t least two lineages survived in distinct putative refugia located in the {M}assif des {L}evres and in the vicinity of {M}ount {A}oupinie. {O}ur findings finally confirmed the importance of {LGM} rainforest refugia in shaping the current intra- and interspecific diversity in {N}ew {C}aledonian plants and revealed the possibility of an as yet unreported refugium. {T}he combination of niche modelling and population genetics thereby offered novel insight into the biogeographical history of an emblematic taxon.}, keywords = {{ARBUSTE} ; {FORET} ; {ESPECE} {ENDEMIQUE} ; {VARIABILITE} {GENETIQUE} ; {STRUCTURE} {DE} {POPULATION} ; {GENETIQUE} {DE} {POPULATION} ; {HABITAT} ; {PHYLOGENIE} ; {DISTRIBUTION} {SPATIALE} ; {GENOTYPE} ; {NICHE} {ECOLOGIQUE} ; {MODELE} ; {PROBABILITE} ; {FACTEUR} {CLIMATIQUE} ; {PLEISTOCENE} ; {BIOGEOGRAPHIE} ; {HISTOIRE} ; {ETUDE} {COMPARATIVE} ; {PHYLOGEOGRAPHIE} ; {DIVERSITE} {GENETIQUE} ; {MARQUEUR} {MOLECULAIRE} ; {MICROSATELLITE} ; {ZONE} {REFUGE} ; {NOUVELLE} {CALEDONIE} ; {ZONE} {TROPICALE} {HUMIDE}}, booktitle = {}, journal = {{M}olecular {E}cology}, volume = {22}, numero = {24}, pages = {6163--6178}, ISSN = {1365-294{X}}, year = {2013}, DOI = {10.1111/mec.12554}, URL = {https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010060228}, }
