Back from the brink: potential for genetic rescue in a critically endangered tree.

Molecular ecology - 1 Sept 2011

Abstract excerpt

Rare plant species are vulnerable to genetic erosion and inbreeding associated with small population size and isolation due to increasing habitat fragmentation. The degree to which these problems undermine population viability remains debated. We explore genetic and reproductive processes in the critically endangered long-lived tropical tree Medusagyne oppositifolia, an endemic to the Seychelles with a naturally...
