Rapid Buildup of Genetic Diversity in Founder Populations of the Gynodioecious Plant Species Origanum vulgare after Semi-Natural Grassland Restoration

Abstract: In most landscapes the success of habitat restoration is largely dependent on spontaneous colonization of plant species. This colonization process, and the outcome of restoration practices, can only be considered successful if the genetic makeup of founding populations is not eroded through founder effects and subsequent genetic drift. Here we used 10 microsatellite markers to investigate the genetic effects of recent colonization of the long-lived gynodioecious species Origanum vulgare in restored semi-natura… Show more

“…For instance, conspecific density critically determines the availability of pollen donors and thus pollination failure due to quantitative pollen limitation (Ashman et al, ; Ghazoul, ). In addition, fine‐scale spatial genetic structuring (FSGS hereafter) within plant populations can influence the quality of the pollination by creating genetic neighbourhoods where individuals exhibit increased kinship (Aizen & Harder, ; Escudero, Iriondo, & Torres, ; Helsen, Jacquemyn, Hermy, Vandepitte, & Honnay, ). In this regard, the existence of long‐distance pollination may provide key pollination services (Castilla et al, ; Jordano, ; Kremen et al, ).…”
