Can the preservation of historical relicts permit the conservation of endangered plant species? The case of Silene sennenii (Caryophyllaceae)

2007-08-01

Abstract excerpt

Allozyme electrophoresis was used to measure levels and distribution of genetic diversity in the critically endangered (CR) Silene sennenii (Caryophyllaceae), a narrow endemic plant species found in northeastern Catalonia (Spain). At present, only 5 populations remain, containing no more than 5,000 individuals, which are subjected to several human pressures such as habitat fragmentation and land use changes. Inter...
