الوصف: To conserve threatened species effectively, it is crucial to map the genetic variation of the remaining populations. Thus, using 15 microsatellites markers, from which 10 were specially developed for this study, we investigated genetic structure and gene flow patterns of Herbertia zebrina Deble, a critically endangered species endemic from grasslands of southern Brazil. We also investigated the degree of habitat fragmentation and the impacts on levels of genetic diversity, mating system and pollinators of the species. STRUCTURE and discriminant analysis of principal components identified the existence of three genetic clusters. Populations were not isolated by distance, and genetic differentiation among populations was low (7.0%). Migration rates were also low, but no evidence of genetic bottlenecks was found. However, effective population-scaled mutation rates (Θ) were < 1, suggesting that populations could be experiencing genetic drift, but the reason remains unknown. The results indicate that measurements of habitat fragmentation were not significantly correlated with genetic diversity estimates, which tend to increase with fragment size. H. zebrina was identified as an outcrossing species and specialized pollinators, such as Chalepogenus goeldianus and Lanthanomelissa betinae were rarely observed. Our findings suggest that genetic differentiation across multiple populations within the entire geographic distribution of H. zebrina is very low and populations may struggle to adapt to the current environmental and pollination changes. However, habitat fragmentation is still too recent to detect significant impacts on the levels of genetic variation. Thus, conservation plans are necessary to avoid further declines of this species.
