This study was designed to examine the subtle effects of habitat, aspect and altitude on plant diversity and the timing of phenological stages. In this increasingly arid region, within-species differences would cause more reproductive isolation of lo

Within the semi-desert landscape of northern Libya, two sub-humid escarpments occur: Al-Akhdar in the east and Nafusa (Jabal Al-Gharbi) in the west. This study compares plant communities in the two regions, which are along an elevation gradient, in t

The Phoenician juniper (Juniperus phoenicea L.) has long been common in the Al-Akhdar mountain range in NE Libya. Juniper trees in the region are showing signs of dieback, and minimal successful seedling recruitment has occurred. We investigate this

The cost of reproduction by female plants generally exceeds that of male plants because females produce seeds and fruits in addition to flowers (Darwin 1877, Lloyd and Webb 1977, Willson 1983). If the vegetative growth of female and male plants is eq

Leaf-to-root surface area ratios in Vallisneria americana have been shown to provide a simple and inexpensive relative measure of sublethal effects of organochlorine contamination. The present study was conducted to determine whether this index of su

We examined the development of ovules and components of reproductive yield as they related to plant size and fruit position within plants of Alliaria petiolata (M. Bieb.) Cavara and Grande from three sites. We found that both factors affected fruit a
