GENETIC AND ECOLOGICAL NICHE MODELING OF CALYDOREA CROCOIDES (IRIDACEAE): AN ENDEMIC SPECIES OF SUBTROPICAL HIGHLAND GRASSLANDS

Genetic and ecological niche modeling of Calydorea crocoides (Iridaceae): an endemic species of Subtropical Highland Grasslands

Abstract Evolutionary analyses have been widely used for evaluation of genetic diversity of natural populations and correlate these data to the fitness of the species, especially in the case of threatened species.Calydorea crocoides occurs in a restricted area at altitudes from 800 to 1500 m in southern Brazil and is considered endangered.A study a
