Funded Activity Summary

Landscape Fragmentation and Rare Plant Species: Can We Develop a General Framework of Population Responses? The project aims to categorise threatened plant taxa on the basis of functional attributes, and choose taxa for detailed investigation on the basis of their distribution across the landscape and potential to deliver quantitative data. Models will then be developed for each functional group of how rates of pollination, seed production, genetic diversity and seed fitness are affected by population size and landscape context. Information from models for each functional group will then be extrapolated, where possible, to other taxa in that group to provide guidelines for flora conservation, including translocations, threatened ecological communities and restoration / revegetation programs.
