How successful are plant species reintroductions (2011, background): “Diversity is also essential for the adaptability of a population (Booy et al., 2000).”
Microevolutionary Response to Climatic Change (2004, background): “To what extent changes are to be expected depends on a number of factors, primarily on the form, strength and constancy of selection, on the size of the population and population trends, and on the degree of isolation, i.e., gene flow (Lacy, 1987; Booy et al., 2000).”
Habitat fragmentation effects on fitness of plant populations – a review (2004, background): “Questions arising concern the appropriate species and sites for introduction, the appropriate source material and the number of individuals (Booy et al., 2000).”
Linking individual response to biotic interactions with community structure: a trait-based framework (2009, background): “Facilitation is usually hypothesized to increase biodiversity in harsh environments (see the humpback model in Michalet et al. 2006; Callaway et al. 2002; Mulder, Uliassi, & Doak 2001) as it promotes plant types or species to persist at low abundance within stressful environments that would otherwis”
Strain and vegetation effects on local limiting resources explain the outcomes of biotic interactions (2010, background): “…that, depending on their effect on abiotic factors, plant communities are able to positively or negatively modify the realized niches of species (Booy et al., 2000; Choler et al., 2001; Callaway et al., 2002; Bruno et al., 2003; fects on local limiting resources explain the outcomes of biotic…”
The rough edges of the conservation genetics paradigm for plants (2006, background): “Several reviews have compiled and evaluated the empirical evidence for the importance of genetic effects (e.g. Young et al. 1996; Booy et al. 2000), including the very recent review by Leimu et al. (2006).”
Genetic consequences of habitat fragmentation in plant populations: susceptible signals in plant traits and methodological approaches (2008, background): “The loss of genetic variation may reduce a population’s ability to respond to future environmental change, such that the probability of extinction is increased or, at best, opportunities for evolution are limited (Caro & Laurenson 1994; Young et al. 1996; Nason et al. 1997; Booy et al. 2000).”
Genetic diversity is considered important but interpreted narrowly in country reports to the Convention on Biological Diversity: Current actions and indicators are insufficient (2021, unknown): “The high number of reports that mentioned genetic diversity in relation to Aichi Target 12 (prevention of species ’ extinctions) may reflect increasing recognition of genetic diversity ’ s role in supporting species survival (Booy et al., 2000; Sgr ` o et al., 2011; Ralls et al., 2020).”
Reduced colonization capacity in fragmented populations of wind‐dispersed grassland forbs (2002, background): “The selected species are all outcrossing and have become severely fragmented over a relatively short time period, so they may be especially susceptible to inbreeding depression (Husband & Schemske 1996; Booy et al. 2000).”
Structure of the genetic diversity in black poplar (Populus nigra L.) populations across European river systems: Consequences for conservation and restoration (2008, background): “There must be sufficient genetic diversity to provide the population with the capacity to adapt to changing environmental conditions in order to ensure its long-term survival (Booy et al., 2000).”
