How do gap dynamics and colonization of a human disturbed area affect genetic diversity and structure of a pioneer tropical tree species?

2015-05-01

Abstract excerpt

Pioneer tree species exhibit life-cycle characteristics and population structures that are mainly affected by natural or human disturbances. In primary forests, demographic dynamics of pioneer species may resemble those defined for a metapopulation. In early successional forests, the patterns of establishment, survival and reproduction are mainly determined by microclimate and biota modifications of the site after...
