  abstract = {{T}he world's second largest expanse of tropical rainforest is in {C}entral {A}frica, and it harbours enormous species diversity. {P}opulation genetic studies have consistently revealed significant structure across {C}entral {A}frican rainforest plants. {I}n particular, previous studies have repeatedly demonstrated a north-south genetic discontinuity around the equatorial line, in a continuous expanse of rainforest where a climatic inversion is documented. {H}ere, we took a phylogeographic approach by sequencing 351 nuclear markers in 112 individuals across the distribution of the {A}frican rainforest tree species{A}nnickia affinis({A}nnonaceae). {W}e showed for the first time that the north-south divide is the result of a single, major colonization event across the climatic inversion from an ancestral population located in {G}abon. {W}e suggested that differences in ecological niche of populations located on either side of this inversion may have contributed to this phylogenetic discontinuity. {W}e found evidence for inland dispersal, predominantly in northern areas, and variable demographic histories among genetic clusters, indicating that populations responded differently to past climate change. {W}e show how newly developed genomic tools can provide invaluable insights into our understanding of tropical rainforest evolutionary dynamics.},
