N2 - The concept of protecting �Plant Species with Extremely Small Populations (PSESP)" was first proposed by the State Forestry Administration in 2011 as part of China�s Rescue and Conservation Planning for Wild Plant Species with Extremely Small Populations (2011e2015) (Sun, 2013; Yang et al., 2020). PSESP are defined as having a remaining population below the number expected to be genetically viable (e.g. Minimum Viable Population, MVP), exploit a highly restricted set of environmental conditions due to human habitat disturbance, and be at an extremely high risk of extinction (Sun, 2013, 2016; Sun et al.,2019a,b). This concept has been frequently applied to conservation projects of threatened plant species in China.
