Ecology and Evolutionary Adaptation in Anthropogenically Fragmented Habitat

Abstract

The study investigated the impact of anthropogenic habitat fragmentation on biodiversity and ecosystem in Dryandra Woodland. This study carried out various experiments such as flora community surveys, pollinator observation, offspring fitness and genetic analysis in order to reveal how different species respond to the change in their living environments. The outcome of this thesis could provide a better understanding of anthropogenic fragmentation and suggestions for the management and conservation of species in the fragmented area.
