Sampling for Effective Ex Situ Plant Conservation (2013, background): “This resulted in the list of species targeted for a single representative sample of the species (Vitt et al. 2010).”
Placing Forestry in the Assisted Migration Debate (2012, methodology): “Several life-history characteristics have been proposed as indicators of suitability for this type of AM, including the degree of rarity, the species’ niche width, the degree of habitat specialization, and migration or colonization potential (Keel 2007, Vitt et al. 2010).”
Impacts of global climate change on the floras of oceanic islands – Projections, implications and current knowledge (2015, background): “If affected species cannot escape by natural migration to refugia, human-mediated relocations could save them from being decoupled from their climatic niche (see Vitt et al., 2010 for a general consideration).”
Assisted colonization: Integrating conservation strategies in the face of climate change (2011, background): “For example, coordinated and systematic collection and storage of plant seeds has been proposed as a means to preserve genetic material for future use in conservation programs, including assisted colonization (Vitt et al., 2010).”
Evolution of plant materials for ecological restoration: insights from the applied and basic literature (2017, methodology): “In addition to promoting gene flow by mixing source populations, production and restoration practices can also be modified to augment or introduce adaptive genetic variation into populations (Hufford & Mazer 2003; Vitt et al. 2010; Aitken & Whitlock 2013).”
Seed dispersal in changing landscapes. (2012, background): “At the same time, the role of ‘assisted migration’—artificial dispersal—as a solution for expected future problems is being debated in the conservation literature without any clear understanding of the potential for unassisted migration (Hoegh-Guldberg et al., 2010; Sax et al., 2009; Vitt et al., 20”
Bromus Response to Climate and Projected Changes with Climate Change (2016, background): “If native species are unable to colonize newly suitable areas, assisted migration is one possible solution (McLachlan et al. 2007 ; Richardson et al. 2009 ; Vitt et al. 2010 ).”
Assisted Gene Flow to Facilitate Local Adaptation to Climate Change (2013, background): “Some plant species in tallgrass prairie ecosystems and other grasslands may also be suitable (Vitt et al. 2010).”
Prescriptive Evolution to Conserve and Manage Biodiversity (2014, background): “These approaches are referred to as genetic restoration (Hedrick 1995), assisted migration (Vitt et al. 2010), assisted translocation (Coles & Riegl 2013), assisted colonization, managed gene flow, assisted gene flow (Aitken & Whitlock 2013), prescriptive gene flow (Sexton et al. 2011), facilitated…”
