Population size and habitat quality affect genetic diversity and fitness in the clonal herb Cirsium dissectum.

Oecologia - 1 Feb 2009

de Vere Natasha, Jongejans Eelke, Plowman Amy, Williams Eirene

Abstract excerpt

Remaining populations of plant species in fragmented landscapes are threatened by declining habitat quality and reduced genetic diversity, but the interactions of these major factors are rarely studied together for species conservation. In this study, the interactions between population size, habitat quality, genetic diversity and fitness were investigated in 22 populations of the clonal herb Cirsium dissectum...
