Maximum likelihood (ML) tree based on the nuclear ITS sequence of the J. excelsa individuals. Samples from the Crimean Peninsula are listed in Supplementary Tab. 1. GenBank accessions of other J. excelsa, J. chinensis and J. communis are included (Supplementary Tab. 2). The bootstrap values ≥ 50% are shown only (1,000 replicates)

Morphological characteristics used for the evaluation of the Crimean J. excelsa populations: mean values (M) with standard deviation (SD), minima (Min) and maxima (Max), coefficient of variation (CV), and results of comparisons between populations performed data: Kruskal-Wallis (KW) test between all populations and U Mann-Whitney (UMW) test between montane (M) and coastal (C) population and between eastern (E) and southernmost (S) populations, and basing on the set of individuals means: ANOVA and Student’s t test, respectively based on all data: Kruskal-Wallis (KW) test between all populations and U Mann-Whitney (UMW) test between montane (M) and coastal (C) population and between eastern (E) and southernmost (S) populations, and basing on the set of individuals means: ANOVA and Student’s t test, respectively
