Fragmentation and environmental constraints influence genetic diversity and germination of Stipa pennata in natural steppes

2016-09-01

Abstract excerpt

Human impact and fragmentation often have negative effects on plant population sizes. This can lead to declining genetic diversity due to restricted gene flow and genetic bottlenecks, and eventually result in reduced reproductive fitness. Environmental conditions can also influence the genetic structure of populations and directly affect their reproduction success.For Stipa pennata, the key species of largely natu...
