Abstract Global conservation policy and action have largely neglected protecting monitoring genetic diversity—one of the three main pillars biodiversity. Genetic diversity (diversity within species) underlies species’ adaptation survival, ecosystem resilience, societal innovation. The low priority given to has been due knowledge gaps in key areas, including importance trends change; perceived high expense availability scattered nature data; complicated concepts information that are...
Abstract Genetic diversity is one of the three main levels biodiversity recognised in Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD). Fundamental for species adaptation to environmental change, genetic nonetheless under‐reported within global and national indicators. When it reported, focus often narrow confined domesticated or other commercial species. Several approaches have recently been developed address this shortfall reporting wild While multiplicity helpful any development process, can also...
Al Jabal Akhdar mountain south of the Mediterranean in Northern Libya is only native habitat for Aleppo Pine (Pinus halepensis Mill.) eastern North Africa. Located between Sea and Sahara Desert, climate change human activities are threatening its existence. We studied three woodlands P. at different elevations this unusual rare ecosystem. found that producing more cones per tree seeds cone than trees northern populations, with a net result higher altitude 7 times number compared to...

Summary Little is still known about the effect of seed colour on germination Scots pine. Using pine from English Midlands, we found that seeds were readily divided into dark and light categories could be further 4 sub-groups. Dark exhibited high values mass viability, whereas all shades showed lower poorer germination. Commercial lots contained very few seeds. We also observed had wings, this was related to tree age, since younger trees produced more winged than older trees. The predicted...
Pluchea dioscoridis (L.) DC. is a species native to Eastern Africa that has been recorded for the first time in northern Libya. It was discovered growing around city of Benghazi populations more than 100 plants beside roads and inside gardens, also on edge salt marshes typical wet habitat halophyte about five kilometres east not far from shoreline north-east Populations this plant were noticed 2018 once civil war over confirmed during an investigative research project aimed evaluate state...
