Nathalie Escaravage, Jocelyne Cambecèdes, Gérard Largier and André Pornon present here the genetic structure of the endangered endemic species, Aster pyrenaeus. Only 14 populations remain in the Pyrenees and the Cantabrian Mounts. The study provides new insights into the pattern of plant genetic diversity across these mountain ranges.
Alpine oceanic ecosystems are considered amongst the most ephemeral and restricted habitats, with a biota highly vulnerable to climate changes and disturbances. As an example of an alpine insular endemic, Rodríguez...
The analysis of genetic structure and variability of isolated species is of critical importance in evaluating whether stochastic or human-caused factors are affecting rare species. Low genetic diversity compromises the...
Canarian endemic plants are phylogenetically constrained by the traits of the colonizing lineages, although also influenced by distances to the mainland.
