Distribution of Plant Species and Dispersal Traits along Environmental Gradients in Central Mediterranean Summits

Distribution of Plant Species and Dispersal Traits along Environmental Gradients in Central Mediterranean Summits

High-mountain ecosystems are spots of plant diversity in which species composition and traits depict a long evolutionary history of species adaptation to steep environmental gradients. We investigated the main trends in plant species composition and reproductive and dispersal traits (pollen vector,...
