TRY plant trait database – enhanced coverage and open accessNARA Subscribed
Plant traits—the morphological, anatomical, physiological, biochemical and phenological characteristics of plants—determine how plants respond to environmental factors, affect other trophic levels, and influence ecosystem properties and their benefits and detriments to people. Plant trait data thus represent the basis for a vast area of research spanning from evolutionary biology, community and functional ecology, to biodivers...
Large‐scale migrations of brown bears in Eurasia and to North America during the Late PleistoceneNARA Subscribed
Aim Climatic changes during the Late Pleistocene had major impacts on populations of plant and animal species. Brown bears and other large mammals are likely to have experienced analogous ecological pressures and phylogeographical processes. Here, we address several unresolved issues regarding the Late Pleistocene demography of brown bears: (1) the putative locations of refugia; (2) the direction of migrations across Eurasia a...
Combining molecular and fossil data to infer demographic history of Quercus cerris : insights on European eastern glacial refugiaNARA Subscribed
Aim Phylogeographical studies of Eastern Mediterranean species are rare. We aim to fill a gap in the current understanding of the role of Eastern Mediterranean glacial refugia, and their connections with other refugia across Europe. To this end, we studied the genetic diversity distribution and genetic structure of the modern population of Quercus cerris in relation to its Quaternary demographic history and to more ancient eve...
Chloroplast DNA phylogeography of European ashes, Fraxinus sp. (Oleaceae): roles of hybridization and life history traitsNARA Subscribed
We investigated range‐wide phylogeographic variation in three European ash species ( Fraxinus sp., Oleaceae). Chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) microsatellites were typed in the thermophilous Fraxinus angustifolia and Fraxinus ornus and the observed haplotypes and the geographic distribution of diversity were compared to cpDNA data previously obtained in the more cold‐tolerant Fraxinus excelsior . We found wide‐ranging haplotype sharing...
Chloroplast DNA variation and postglacial recolonization of common ash ( Fraxinus excelsior L.) in EuropeNARA Subscribed
We used chloroplast polymerase chain reaction‐restriction‐fragment length polymorphism (PCR‐RFLP) and chloroplast microsatellites to assess the structure of genetic variation and postglacial history across the entire natural range of the common ash ( Fraxinus excelsior L.), a broad‐leaved wind‐pollinated and wind‐dispersed European forest tree. A low level of polymorphism was observed, with only 12 haplotypes at four polymorph...
