dc.description.abstract | The aim of this research was to gather baseline data on Irish populations of Spiranthes romanzoffiana, a
species with an uneven amphi-Atlantic distribution. The species is widespread in North America. In Europe,
populations are confined to the west and north east of Ireland and to the Hebridean islands in western
Scotland. S. romanzoffiana is protected in the Republic of Ireland by the Wildlife Act (1967), under the Flora
Protection Order [SI 94 of 1999] and is an Irish Red List species. Four sample populations in the Republic of
Ireland were studied to determine the ecology, population, reproductive and pollination biology of S.
romanzoffiana. Threats to the species' persistence were assessed at each site. Amplified Fragment Length
Polymorphism (AFLP) and chloroplast microsatellite markers were used to determine the level of genetic
diversity and differentiation within and between Irish, Scottish and North American samples. | |
