Projectomschrijving
Habitat patches in fragmented landscapes are expected to harbor distinct pollinator and herbivore communities according to patch configuration and local environmental factors. Consequently, plant populations in fragmented landscapes are expected to experience distinct selection pressures exerted by local pollinators and herbivores. The goal of this study is to examine these selection pressures and their feedback with plant population genetic structure.
