• A question of origin: Where and how to collect seed for ecological restoration (2010, background): “Small- and large-scale adaptive differentiation was directly compared in a study on Holcus lanatus and Plantago lanceolata (Bischoff et al. 2006a).”
• Identifying targets and agents of selection: innovative methods to evaluate the processes that contribute to local adaptation (2017, background): “Species interactions can impose strong selection on natural populations (e.g. Nosil & Crespi 2006; Calsbeek & Cox 2010), and manipulative field studies have implicated biotic factors as potent agents of local adaptation (Bischoff et al. 2006; Liancourt et al. 2013).”
• Seed supply for broadscale restoration: maximizing evolutionary potential (2008, background): “3 The use of generalized guidelines for seed move- ment without reference to life-history traits, spatial distribution and historic factors will continue to restrict restoration success through poor management decisions with respect to seed collection and deployment.”
• Ecological rather than geographic or genetic distance affects local adaptation of the rare perennial herb, Aster amellus (2007, methodology): “We conclude that transfer of seeds is a more appropriate technique than transfer of adult plants in conservation practice because it more likely prevents non-adapted genotypes from establishing.”
• Evolution of plant materials for ecological restoration: insights from the applied and basic literature (2017, background): “…population is to use an initial seed mix containing local genotypes (Grady et al. 2011; Dyer, Knapp & Rice 2016), and genotypes from ecologically similar, but geographically more distant populations (Montalvo & Ellstrand 2000; Bischoff et al. 2006; Broadhurst et al. 2008; Woolbright et al. 2014).”
• Genetic differentiation and regional adaptation among seed origins used for grassland restoration: lessons from a multispecies transplant experiment (2017, background): “…& Fenster 2000; Joshi et al. 2001; Becker et al. 2006, 2008), whereas in others it was the climatic difference between origin and planting site (Weißhuhn et al. 2012), the similarity of habitats (Bischoff et al. 2006) or the general ecological similarity of the two sites (Smith et al. 2009).”
• Genetic differentiation within multiple common grassland plants supports seed transfer zones for ecological restoration (2017, background): “Notwithstanding such regional differentiation, the studied species likely harbour additional, more local adaptive differentiation, for example related to different levels of soil pH or soil moisture (Bischoff et al. 2006; Raabova, M€ unzbergova & Fischer 2007).”
