Seed provenance matters — Effects on germination of four plant species used for ecological restoration (2006, background): “The provenance of seed material used in ecological restoration or habitat creation is subject of an ongoing debate (Hamilton, 2001; Hufford & Mazer, 2003; Wilkinson, 2001).”
The Importance of Plant Provenance and Genotypic Diversity of Seed Material Used for Ecological Restoration (2008, background): “Recent studies have shown that the approach has potential risks that may counteract the desired effects if nonlocal provenances are used and genotypic diversity of the source populations is too low (Keller et al. 2000; Williams 2001; McKay et al. 2005).”
Building evolutionary resilience for conserving biodiversity under climate change (2010, background): “The environment is continually changing at different rates and scales (Wilkinson 2001) particularly when anthropogenic influences can rapidly change selection pressures (e.g., increased salinity, irrigation, and heavy metal deposition).”
A question of origin: Where and how to collect seed for ecological restoration (2010, background): “…genetic reinforcement by crossing with non-local populations (Edmands 2007; Petit et al. 2001), the translocation of plant material to other sites always involves at least one of the risks mentioned above and there is an ongoing debate on their importance (Sackville Hamilton 2001; Wilkinson 2001).”
Seed supply for broadscale restoration: maximizing evolutionary potential (2008, background): “Recommendations to use local seed are rooted in scientific literature (Brown and Marshall 1995; McKay et al. 2005), but the practical translation of these data is highly variable and occasionally so restrictive that projects have been cancelled due to a lack of ‘appropriate’ seed (Wilkinson 2001).”
Dispersal characteristics and management of a rare damselfly (2003, background): “To maximize the chances of successful reintroduction, species-specific empirical data are required on the relative fitness of individuals of differing provenance in the empty habitat (Webb & Pullin 1996; Nicholls & Pullin 2000; Hamilton 2001; Wilkinson 2001).”
Phylogeography's past, present, and future: 10 years after Avise, 2000. (2010, background): “, 2000; Moritz, 2002), just as determining whether populations are differentially adapted is an important issue in conservation biology and restoration ecology (McKay et al., 2005; Wilkinson, 2001).”
Restoration Ecology: Interventionist Approaches for Restoring and Maintaining Ecosystem Function in the Face of Rapid Environmental Change (2008, background): “Genetic factors relating to seed provenance need to be considered when sourcing seed for restoration efforts, although there is ongoing debate as to the desirability and feasibility of attempting to define and use local provenance material (87-89), particularly in the context of rapidly changing env”
