Quantifying interspecific and intraspecific diversity effects on ecosystem functioning
Rapid environmental changes result in massive biodiversity loss, with detrimental
consequences for the functioning of ecosystems. Recent studies suggest that intraspecific …

Testing the species–genetic diversity correlation in the Aegean archipelago: toward a haplotype-based macroecology?
A Papadopoulou, I Anastasiou… - The American …, 2011 - journals.uchicago.edu
A positive correlation between species diversity and genetic diversity has been proposed,

The contribution of species–genetic diversity correlations to the understanding of community assembly rules
Community genetics aims at understanding how within‐species variation, species diversity
and environmental factors interact to shape community assembly. An approach that …

Human influence lowers plant genetic diversity in communities with extinction debt
Loss of plant species induced by adverse human influence and habitat fragmentation might
be delayed due to a slow response to changed environmental conditions. This phenomenon …

A neutral theory for interpreting correlations between species and genetic diversity in communities
Spatial patterns of biological diversity have been extensively studied in ecology and
population genetics, because they reflect the forces acting on biodiversity. A growing …

The DNA of coral reef biodiversity: predicting and protecting genetic diversity of reef assemblages
Conservation of ecological communities requires deepening our understanding of genetic
diversity patterns and drivers at community-wide scales. Here, we use seascape genetic …

The regional species richness and genetic diversity of A rctic vegetation reflect both past glaciations and current climate
Aim The A rctic has experienced marked climatic differences between glacial and
interglacial periods and is now subject to a rapidly warming climate. Knowledge of the …
