  1. 1. Systematics, phylogeography and polyploid evolution in the Dactylorhiza maculata complex (Orchidaceae)

    Author : David Ståhlberg; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ITS; morphometry; taxonomy; Systematic botany; Växtekologi; Plant ecology; vegetation analysis; recombination; polyploidy; plastid DNA; niche differentiation; chemotaxonomy. Physiology of nonvascular plants; morphology; phytogeography; hybrid zone; glacial refugia; Dactylorhiza; flow cytometry; Systematisk botanik; taxonomi; morfologi; kemotaxonomi. Växters fysiologi inte kärlväxter .;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to investigate and describe different aspects of variation in the Dactylorhiza maculata complex and to relate the variation patterns to underlying biological processes such as Quaternary migration history, hybridization and polyploid evolution. The variation patterns were analysed at various geographic levels using molecular markers (plastid DNA and ITS of nrDNA), cytological data, morphometry and ecological data. READ MORE

  2. 2. Systematics of polyploid Dactylorhiza (Orchidaceae) - genetic diversity, phylogeography and evolution

    Author : Sofie Olofsson; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; microsatellites; allozymes; ITS; plastid DNA; Dactylorhiza majalis ssp. traunsteineri; allopolyploidy; AFLPs; immigration history; diploidization; hybridization;

    Abstract : This thesis examines genetic variation in allotetraploids of the Dactylorhiza incarnata/maculata polyploid complex in different parts of Europe. The molecular markers used were AFLPs, allozymes, ITS, nuclear microsatellites and plastid DNA markers. READ MORE

  4. 4. Biotic and abiotic drivers of life-history and demographic variation in boreal orchids

    Author : Matthew R. Tye; Nina Sletvold; Yvonne Buckley; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Plant demography; life-history; climate; pollination; compensation; orchids; resources; Biology with specialization in Ecological Botany; Biologi med inriktning mot ekologisk botanik;

    Abstract : Environmental interactions, including both abiotic and biotic factors, are key drivers of life-history and population dynamics. Despite this, most population studies do not explicitly link variation in environmental factors and vital rates. READ MORE
