A review is given of the role of traditional morphometrics in plant systematics. The three most
commonly used techniques of data analysis–Cluster Analysis, Principal Component …

Gene flow can have rapid effects on adaptation and is an important evolutionary tool
available when undertaking biological conservation and restoration. This tool is underused …

This study tests the Haig–Westoby model, which predicts that seed output will be limited
simultaneously by pollen and resources when plants optimally distribute their reproductive …

Phylogenetic analysis of ITS and rbcL sequences show that New Zealand Stylidiaceae fall
into two distinct lineages differing in species richness. Each lineage represents a unique …

Aim The alpine region of mainland Australia is one of the world's 187 biodiversity hotspots.
Genetic analyses of Australian alpine fauna indicate high levels of endemism on fine spatial …

Abstract Background and Aims Resource allocation to flowers, fruits and seeds can vary
greatly within an inflorescence. For example, distal fruits are often smaller and produce …

Local adaptation in alpine plants has been demonstrated across wide altitudinal gradients,
but has rarely been examined across the alpine‐to‐montane transition that often …

The mating environment hypothesis predicts that during a flowering season, dichogamy can
result in temporal variation in the number of pollen donors, selecting for variation in …

• Premise of the study: Accurate assessments of biodiversity are paramount for
understanding ecosystem processes and adaptation to change. Invasive species often …
