Genetic diversity and conservation of the Canarian Flora (Review)
Canarian endemic plants are phylogenetically constrained by the traits of the colonizing lineages, although also influenced by distances to the mainland.
Genetic connectivity and evolution in Crepis
Islands play a central role in the study of plant evolution in the Mediterranean. Mayol et al. analyse the impact of varying patterns of habitat occupancy on genetic diversity and structure in Crepis triasii, an endemic...
