Evolution of Amphibious Vernal Pool Specialist Annuals: Putative Vernal Pool Adaptive Traits in Navarretia (Polemoniaceae)
The amphibious plants endemic to vernal pools of the California Floristic Province provide an excellent opportunity to study adaptive evolution for two reasons. First, most of these plants exhibit a major shift in habitat preference from that of their terrestrial ancestors. Second, in most cases, this shift apparently has occurred recently. Because this adaptive evolution has been dramatic and ...

متن کاملPatterns of Vernal Pool Biodiversity at Beale Air Force Base
The effects of substrate geomorphic surface and physical vernal pool dimensions on plant species richness and composition, and large branchiopod occurrences were investigated for 814 vernal pools at Beale Air Force Base, Yuba County, California. Vernal pools mostly occurred on four geomorphic surfaces: the Mehrten, Laguna, Riverbank, and Modesto Formations. Plant species richness was positively...
