POPULATION GENOMICS, DISTRIBUTION AND REPRODUCTIVE ECOLOGY OF AN ITALIAN STENO-ENDEMIC CHASMOPHYTE, CAMPANULA RAINERI [PDF]

, 2023
Plant species distributions are the result of climatic and evolutionary histories. Range restriction in steno-endemic species often results from climate oscillations that have reduced the extent of suitable habitat or limited species dispersion across ...

Organisms with high dispersal ability as a proxy for biogeographical characterisation of the Mediterranean biome

Global Ecology and Conservation
The Mediterranean biome offers a diverse range of habitats, particularly rocky environments, known for their long-term stability and persistence. Adapted to these rocky surfaces, chasmophytes thrive in this region, benefiting from reduced competition and

Elevational shifts in reproductive ecology indicate the climate response of a model chasmophyte, Rainer's bellflower (Campanula raineri). [PDF]

Ann Bot
Background and aims. Elevation gradients provide ‘natural experiments’ for investigating plant climate change responses, advantageous for the study of protected species and life forms for which transplantation experiments are illegal or unfeasible, such ...

Study on Three Sarcocapnos Species as Potential Sources of Bioactive Compounds: Relation between Phenolic Content and Bioactivity by Multivariate Analysis. [PDF]

J Anal Methods Chem, 2020
In this work, we report the phenolic composition and bioactivity of the aerial parts of three species of Sarcocapnos (S. enneaphylla, S. pulcherrima, and S. saetabensis) to study their potential as sources of bioactive compounds to revalorize them and contribute to the conservation of these plant species.

The success of rock translocation for populations of the chasmophytic Aeollanthus saxatilis (Lamiaceae) [PDF]

Journal for Nature Conservation, 2020
Abstract To ensure the rescue, temporary conservation and further restoration of plant populations and communities threatened by exploitation, translocation appears to be an appropriate method in the context of mining. Little is known, however, on its effect on mutualistic interactions, such as pollination, and on the resulting plant population ...

Evolutionary response of cold‐adapted chasmophytic plants to Quaternary climatic oscillations in the Mountains of Central Asia (a world hotspot of biodiversity)

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 29, Issue 11, Page 1458-1477, November 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim Past climatic oscillations are the main driving force of evolutionary changes in alpine species. Species' response to paleoclimatic oscillations is crucial in forecasting their future response in face of climate warming. The aim of this research is to explore the effect of climatic fluctuations on the evolutionary history, demography, and ...

Does adding community science observations to museum records improve distribution modeling of a rare endemic plant?

Ecosphere, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Understanding the ranges of rare and endangered species is central to conserving biodiversity in the Anthropocene. Species distribution models (SDMs) have become a common and powerful tool for analyzing species–environment relationships across geographic space.

Rare shady chasmophytic habitat communities (8210) in Ukraine

Hacquetia, 2023
Abstract The characteristics of shaded chasmophytic habitats on calcareous rocks in forest conditions are described, where the forest canopy primarily acts as a shading factor that determines microclimate, humidity and light levels. These communities can be found in deciduous forests of the Carpinion betuli, Fagion sylvaticae and Tilio ...

Watanabea green microalgae (Trebouxiophyceae) inhabiting lichen holobiomes: Watanabea lichenicola sp. nova

Phycological Research, Volume 69, Issue 4, Page 226-236, October 2021., 2021
SUMMARY Microalgae of the genus Watanabea are widely distributed as free living in soil/subaerial and aquatic habitats. In this study, two Watanabea spp. were isolated from lichen thalli of Buellia zoharyi collected on biocrusts in the Iberian Peninsula and the Canary Islands.
