This project investigates how plant traits and genome size affect the geographic range of species, particularly within the palm family. By developing methods to predict genome size from leaf characteristics, it aims to enhance understanding of plant evolution and contribute to conservation strategies.
Plant range size (geographic area occupied by a species), a key predictor of species’ extinction risk, is shaped by an interplay of evolutionary and ecological processes.
Yet understanding how species’ biological traits interact with environmental factors to determine range size remains challenging. I hypothesize that plant trait flexibility (ability of traits to evolve to different trait states) and genome size (total DNA in cell’s nucleus) are two key biological factors that influence range si…
