Journal ArticleDOI

The development and application of molecular markers for abiotic stress tolerance in barley.

TL;DR: This article represents some current thinking and objectives in the use of molecular markers to abiotic stress tolerance of barley as an important crop species, as well as a model for genetic and physiological studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Species Distribution Modeling in the Tropics: Problems, Potentialities, and the Role of Biological Data for Effective Species Conservation:

TL;DR: SDMs have a great potential to support biodiversity conservation in the tropics, by supporting the development of conservation strategies and plans, identifying knowledge gaps, and providing a tool to examine the potential impacts of environmental change, but for this potential to be fully realized, problems of data quality and availability need to be overcome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic diversity in mesoamerican populations of mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla), assessed using RAPDs.

TL;DR: One of the most wide-ranging surveys of molecular variation within a tropical tree species to date offers practical information for the future conservation of mahogany and highlights some factors that may have influenced the partitioning of genetic diversity in this species across Mesoamerica.
Journal ArticleDOI

Taxonomic homogenization of woodland plant communities over 70 years.

TL;DR: An analysis of woodland patches across a southern English county in which 70 years of change in the composition of vascular plant communities is quantified is presented, providing the first direct evidence of taxonomic homogenization in the UK.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic variation in Fitzroya cupressoides (alerce), a threatened South American conifer.

TL;DR: Assessment of genetic variation using DNA markers within and between populations of Fitzroya cupressoides indicated that there is a significant degree of variation within each population, and did not provide evidence for genetic ‘bottleneck’ effects within the species.
