Summary

Survival and early growth traits of Coleogyne ramosissima (blackbrush) seedlings were quantitatively investigated in an effort to detect intraspecific variation among populations. Blackbrush seeds were collected from four isolated mountain ranges, with each range sampled from one high-elevation and one low-elevation location for a total of eight populations in the Mojave Desert. Seedlings were grown together in a controlled environmental glasshouse in southern Nevada for six months. Survival of experimental blackbrush seedlings among eight populations ranged from 60.0% to 76.7%. Significant variation was found for all measured growth traits of blackbrush seedlings between high and low elevations. These growth traits included shoot [...]
