(2) are there any correlations between environmental harshness and certain synecological properties of such communities ? (3) are species of such communities selected for reproductive specializations that tend to reduce their genetic variability? The four communities (representing three types of herbaceous or semi-shrubby vegetation) were a salt marsh, two coastal sphagnum bogs, and a subalpine meadow. In answer to the first two questions, the findings of this investigation indicate that: (a) species population structure becomes more aggregated as environmental heterogeneity and physical stress increase, and less aggregated as succession proceeds and interspecific\r\ncompetition increases. (b) interspecific association and correlation, both negative and positive, increase as environmental heterogeneity and competition increase. (c) levels of polyploidy within communities appear to be correlated with environmental rigor (broadly defined).\r\n\r\n(d) the most abundant species within a community are the most variable and presumably have the largest niches ; niche size and population variability decrease as interspecific\r\ncompetition increases. (e) within a community, ecological distinctiveness reduces interspecific competition; communities under the least stress (especially seasonal stress) have the most ecologically dissimilar1 species. (f) dominance decreases as species diversity increases, and species diversity is roughly correlated with overall environmental severity. In answer to the last question: (a) all four communities are dominated by predominantly outcrossing species; there is no major shift to self-pollination or apomixis in any of the communities. (b) an index of potential recombination was devised, embodying a number of aspects of reproductive biology, according to which there is no significant difference in potential recombination, on the average, between species of the four different communities. Plant communities and their constituent species both respond to evolutionary forces, but more or less independently, at different rates, and often in different or even opposite ways. Environmental stress has a powerful effect on the structure and function of plant communities, but in an evolutionary sense there is little difference between normal (mesic, zonal) environments and extreme or azonal environments\r\n\r\nto an individual species. Different selection pressures have been operating in salt marshes, sphagnum bogs, and subalpine meadows, but the present study indicates that, on the average, the resultant evolutionary strategies of the species of these communities are equivalent.","type":"literal","lang":"en"}],"http:\/\/www.europeana.eu\/schemas\/edm\/aggregatedCHO":[{"value":"https:\/\/circle.library.ubc.ca\/rest\/handle\/2429\/19524?expand=metadata","type":"literal","lang":"en"}],"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2009\/08\/skos-reference\/skos.html#note":[{"value":"C- I THE RELATION OF THE REPRODUCTIVE BIOLOGY OF PLANTS TO THE STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION OF FOUR PLANT COMMUNITIES by JIM POJAR B .

The very shal low peat depths (averaging no more than 1 m) support t h i s sugges t ion , as does the y o u t h f u l age o f Wade's Bog, e s t a b l i s h e d as approximately 400190 years by rad ioca rbon d a t i n g (Wade 1965). The bogs probably have been formed by p a l u d i f i c a t i o n (swamping) o f p o o r l y d ra ined c o a s t a l f o r e s t , r a t h e r than by g r a d u a l , c e n t r i p e t a l f i l l i n g - i n o f water bod ie s . Wade (19 65) cons idered the recent format ion o f a h ighe r l i p o f land now covered by S i t k a spruce (Piaea sitchensis) and the format ion of an u n d e r l y i n g hardpan to be the l i k e l i e s t b a r r i e r s to the drainage of the c o a s t a l t e r r a c e upon which the bogs are perched. Success ion i n the bogs appears to be toward development o f a h i g h moor or r a i s e d bog o f sphagnum moss, sedges , and e r icaceous shrubs w i t h f u r t h e r bogaexpansion at the expense o f the surrounding wet f o r e s t . Of the two bogs, Wade's Bog seems to be more advanced i n t h i s succes s ion . The average peat depth i n Wade's Bog i s 1 m (Wade 19 65) ; i n Ogg's Bog, 0.5 m.

The d i s t r i b u t i o n o f i n d i v i d u a l s of the same species i n a p a r t i c u l a r p l a n t community g e n e r a l l y i s non-random or aggregated (Gre ig -Smi th 1964; Kershaw 1964) , even i n apparen t ly homo-geneous v e g e t a t i o n . An aggregated p o p u l a t i o n s t r u c t u r e can r e s u l t from environmental he te rogene i ty o r mosa ic i sm, i n t e r -s p e c i f i c i n t e r a c t i o n s , and spec ies morphology (vege t a t i ve apomixis or v i c i n i s m i n seed d i s p e r s a l can l ead to clumped d i s t r i b u t i o n s ) . The non-randomness can take the form of a clumped (\"contagious\") d i s t r i b u t i o n of i n d i v i d u a l s , or an even ( \" r egu la r \" ) d i s t r i b u t i o n (Kershaw 1964). One measure of aggregat ion i s the D\/d index of McGinnies ( i n C u r t i s and Mcin tosh 1950). I have c a l c u l a t e d t h i s index f o r each species i n the present study from presence-absence da ta f o r 'l-i.^-m- 'and\" 0; 9-m segments o f the 0.3-m wide b e l t t r a n s e c t s , a f t e r the method o f Smith and Cottam (1967). The a c t u a l d e n s i t y (D) was c a l c u l a t e d by c o n s i d e r i n g each 0.3-m square w i t h i n each 1.5- or 0.9-m segment to be a p o t e n t i a l i n d i v i d u a l ; t h u s , the maximum d e n s i t y p o s s i b l e per 1.5-m segment was 5, and per 0.9-m segment 3. Frequency va lues were computed as the percentage o f a l l p o s s i b l e 1.5- or 0.9-m segments occupied by a p a r t i c u l a r s p e c i e s . The expected d e n s i t y (d) va lues cou ld then be determined from a b i n o m i a l curve (see Gre ig -Smi th 1964, Table 6 ) . The d va lue thus obta ined was the d e n s i t y (number o f 0.3-m 24 quadrats occupied per segment) t ha t would be expected i f the p o p u l a t i o n were a random one. U s u a l l y the expected dens i t y was l e s s than the a c t u a l d e n s i t y , g i v i n g a D\/d value g rea te r than 1 and i n d i c a t i n g aggregat ion (Table 7 ) . The s i z e o f the D\/d value g ives some i n d i c a t i o n of the type and degree of aggreg-a t i o n . A D\/d grea te r than 1 i n d i c a t e s a contagious d i s t r i b u t i o n ; a D\/d l e s s than 1 i n d i c a t e s a r e g u l a r d i s t r i b u t i o n . The on ly species to show markedly r e g u l a r d i s t r i b u t i o n s (both v i a 0.9-m segments) were T v i g l o c h i n m a v i t i m u m and F e s t u o a v i r i d u l a , the commonest spec ies i n the s a l t marsh and suba lp ine meadow, r e s p e c t i v e l y . U n f o r t u n a t e l y , there i s no way to determine the s i g n i f i c a n c e o f the D\/d index ' d e v i a t i o n from u n i t y (Beals 1968). I t has been suggested (Gre ig -Smi th 1964) tha t success ion i n vege t a t i on i s accompanied by an inc rease i n the s i z e of spec ies aggregat ions concomitant w i t h a decrease i n the i n t e n s i t y o f aggrega t ion . One would expec t , t h e n , e a r l y s u c c e s s i o n a l vege t a t i on to be composed of spec ies w i t h , on the average, h ighe r D\/d values than spec ies o f more advanced s u c c e s s i o n a l or c l imax communities. Regular d i s t r i b u t i o n s r e f l e c t e d by lower D \/ d ' s are sugges t ive o f a n e g a t i v e , probably compe t i t i ve i n t e r -a c t i o n between s p e c i e s , and would be expected i n more s t a b l e , c l imax communities (Beals 19 68) . To compare the average degree of non-randomness i n the study communities I have used the r a t i o o f the sum of observed d e n s i t i e s to the sum of expected d e n s i t i e s ( i . e . , Ed , \/ _ d ) , as recommended by C u r t i s and Mcin tosh (1950). Both observed and expected d e n s i t i e s are the same as those used i n the c a l c u l a t i o n of the D\/d index . Note tha t t h i s r a t i o i s weighted i n favor of 25 the more abundant s p e c i e s , which i s an a t t r a c t i v e f ea tu re .

In view of the e x c e p t i o n a l cy to logy of the Cyperaceae and Juncaceae (Nordensk io ld 19 51; Davies 19 56; Stebbins 1971b), a b a s i c number of 10 has been a r b i t r a r i l y chosen for Carex, Soiryus, and Junous. This i s in tended as a compromise. Both H e i l b o r n (1939) and Wahl (1940) cons idered x = 7 to be the o r i g i n a l b a s i c number of the genus C a r e x , a l though Wahl a l s o de tec ted s e r i e s based on x = 5, 6, and 8. Love et al. (1957) proposed x = 5 as the pr imary b a s i c number of both Carex and J u n o u s , w h i l e Snogerup (1963) mainta ined t ha t i n Junous the pr imary b a s i c number can be as h igh as x = 25. The aneup lo id numbers i n Carex, Scirpus, and Junous have probably a r i s e n through a combinat ion o f t rue p o l y p l o i d y and p a r t i a l agmato-p l o i d y , or endonuclear p o l y p l o i d y . At any r a t e , the chromosome numbers of the above genera i n t h i s study are h i g h enough to be cons idered p o l y p l o i d even i f the -basic number i s as h igh as x = 20.

These d i s tu rbances are s i m i l a r , i n type i f not degree, to those of the s a l t marsh. In c o n t r a s t , sphagnum bogs i n t h i s area have no s i m i l a r d i s t u r b a n c e s . Even the r e g u l a r hummock-ho l low c y c l e s of bogs (Gorham 1957; Lawrence 1958) are apparen t ly s e l f -gene ra t ed by the bog s p e c i e s , do not r e s u l t i n any d r a s t i c e r o s i o n , and are more or l e s s p r e d i c t a b l e and s e l f - c o n t a i n e d .

The s i t u a t i o n i n the s a l t marsh i s not as c l e a r - c u t as i t seems, however. During both summers of f i e l d work I have observed bumble bee (Bombus terricola occi-dentalis Grne. ) p o l l e n fo rag ing on s i x t y p i c a l l y anemophilous s a l t marsh s p e c i e s : D e s o h a m p s i a o e s p i t o s a , F e s t u o a r u b r a v a r . l i t t o r a l i s , A g r o s t i s e x a r a t a , P l a n t a g o m a r i t i m a , J u n o u s b a l t i o u s , and Salioornia virginica (Pojar 1973b). In g e n e r a l , bumble bees are the most important animal p o l l i n a t i n g vec to r at a l l four s i t e s .

This seems p a r t i c u l a r l y t rue i n B l a c k w a l l Meadow, which has a l a rge number of entomophilous species and an extremely h i g h d e n s i t y of s imul taneous ly-b looming f lowers (see F i g s . 6 8 7 ) . Mosquin (1971) concluded t h a t , at l e a s t dur ing midsummer, the f l o r a o f a mountain v a l l e y near Banff competed s t r o n g l y f o r p o l l i n a t o r s , and some spec ies were unsuccess fu l i n the c o m p e t i t i o n . Hocking (19 68) and Kevan (1970, 1972) have noted a r e l i a n c e of f lowers on p o l l i n a t i n g i n s e c t s i n h i g h a r c t i c v e g e t a t i o n , w h i c h , i n d e n s i t y and showiness of f lowers and compressed growing season, i s somewhat s i m i l a r to suba lp ine meadow v e g e t a t i o n . Undoubtedly, i n t e r s p e c i f i c compe t i t i on has p layed a major r o l e i n the e v o l u t i o n o f showy f l o w e r s , as w e l l as p r e s su r ing some species i n t o the escapism of autogamy ( L e v i n 197 2 c ) . Another p o s s i b l e advantage of the showy f lowers of some subalp ine spec ies has been suggested by Hocking and S h a r p l i n (1965) and Kevan (1970). They have found tha t the i n t r a f l o r a l temperatures of l a r g e showy f lowers are g e n e r a l l y above the ambient i n the a r c t i c , and under optimum c o n d i t i o n s the temperatures i n f lowers shaped l i k e p a r a b o l i c r e f l e c t o r s can exceed the ambient by 5 \u00b0 ' t o 10\u00b0 C ( B l i s s 1971).

A t h e o r e t i c a l aspect o f i n t e r s p e c i f i c compe t i t i on f o r p o l l i n a t o r s has been exp lored i n models by L e v i n and Anderson (1970) and Straw (1972). Both models have e s s e n t i a l l y the same i n i t i a l assumptions: (1) two randomly i n t e r m i x e d , s imul taneous ly f l o w e r i n g , s e l f - i n c o m p a t i b l e spec ies w i t h f lowers s u f f i c i e n t l y s i m i l a r t o a t t r a c t the same p o l l i n a t o r s ; (2) a s i n g l e p o l l i n a t o r spec ies to s e r v i c e both p l an t s p e c i e s ; (3) a d e f i c i t o f p o l l i n a t o r s r e l a t i v e to the number of f l o w e r s . Then, i f the r a t e of r e p r o d u c t i o n o f each f lower species 'depends on i t s success i n the compe t i t i on fo r p o l l i n a t o r s , the frequency o f a spec ies i n subsequent generat ions w i l l be p r o p o r t i o n a l to the degree of p o l l i n a t o r constancy to tha t spec ies , and the l e s s favored species e v e n t u a l l y should be e l i m i n a t e d . I f p o l l i n a t o r constancy i s d e n s i t y dependent ( c f . L e v i n and K e r s t e r 1969a), the m i n o r i t y spec ies w i l l be at an inc reased disadvantage and i t s compe t i t i ve e x c l u s i o n should be a c c e l e r a t e d (Straw 1972). The f i r s t two requirements f o r t h i s type of compe t i t i ve e x c l u s i o n r a r e l y , i f a t a l l , e x i s t i n nature (Crosswhi te and Crosswhi te 19 7 0 ; ;Macior\" 1971; Straw 1972). In the study communit ies, assumption (3) seems to be v a l i d , e s p e c i a l l y f o r the suba lp ine meadow. In the meadow, there are two spec ies p a i r s , A r n i c a l a t i f o l i a v s . A. m o l l i s and S e n e c i o i n t e g e r r i m u s v s . S. triangularis, t ha t have s i m i l a r f lowers and p o l l i n a t o r s and are a l l s e l f - i n c o m p a t i b l e . However, they do not r e l y on a s i n g l e p o l l i n a t o r spec ies but r a t h e r are s e r v i c e d by a v a r i e t y of 79 Hymenoptera, D i p t e r a , and L e p i d o p t e r a ; they are \"cornucopian\" f lowers i n the sense of Mosquin (1971). Nor are these spec ies randomly i n t e rmixed A r n i c a m o l l i s and S e n e c i o i n t e g e r r i m u s g e n e r a l l y occur on d r i e r s i t e s w i t h i n the meadow than t h e i r congeners. Fur thermore, S. integerrimus f lowers much e a r l i e r i n the season than the o ther three s p e c i e s , which are more or l e s s s imul taneous ly l a t e - f l o w e r i n g . In the study communit ies, these spec ies p a i r s are the c l o s e s t approaches to the t h e o r e t i c a l assumptions, and c l e a r l y the approaches are q u i t e remote. N e v e r t h e l e s s , i t i s safe t o say tha t avoidance of i n t e r s p e c i f i c compe t i t i on f o r p o l l i n a t o r s , by s h i f t i n g of f l o w e r i n g p e r i o d and\/or h a b i t a t preference and\/or p o l l i n a t i n g agent , has been i n s t rumen ta l i n the e v o l u t i o n of p l a n t species i n g e n e r a l .

The except ions to t h i s gene ra l r u l e ( e g . , as occur i n s e l f - f e r t i l i z i n g spec ies ) are g e n e r a l l y regarded as secondary adapta t ions f o r the sake of g rea te r c e r t a i n t y o f seed p roduc t ion of a more or l e s s uni form genotype (Stebbins 19 50, 1957a; Grant 19 71)...The .adaptive nature .of t h e ' f l o w e r must be 80 apprec ia t ed i n a d i s c u s s i o n of p o l l i n a t i o n eco logy , but the t empta t ion to specu la te on the adapt ive func t ions of va r ious f l o r a l s t r u c t u r e s tha t defy l o g i c a l e v o l u t i o n a r y i n t e r p r e t a t i o n should be r e s i s t e d .

Crosswhite and Crosswhi te (1966) and Macior (1971) have po in t ed out the danger o f such a t y p o l o g i c a l approach, f o r many p l a n t spec ies u t i l i z e a wide v a r i e t y o f p o l l i n a t o r s and are not r e s t r i c t e d to one p a r t i c u l a r v e c t o r . This danger should be kept i n mind dur ing the f o l l o w i n g d i s c u s s i o n , s i nce I s h a l l be r e f e r r i n g to \"bumble bee f l o w e r s \" , e t c . , w h i l e o u t l i n i n g the p o l l i n a t i o n mechanisms c h a r a c t e r i s t i c o f c e r t a i n types of blossoms. C e r t a i n combinat ions of p o s i t i v e l y c o r r e l a t e d charac te r s or fea tures make up a p a r t i c u l a r syndrome ( F a e g r i and van der P i j l 19 71) corresponding to each of the f o l l o w i n g p o l l i n a t i o n s t r a t e g i e s . The o u t l i n e i s tha t o f F a e g r i and van der P i j l (1971); the examples are from the study communities. Anemophily Wind p o l l i n a t i o n or anemophily i s the dominant type o f a b i o t i c p o l l i n a t i o n i n p l a n t s , and i s the only type t ha t occurs i n the study communit ies , there being no w a t e r - p o l l i n a t e d s p e c i e s . The syndrome of anemophily i n c l u d e s the f o l l o w i n g 81 fea tures (Whitehead 19 69; F a e g r i and van der P i j l 19 71; P roc to r and Yeo 1973): the f lowers tend to be o f s m a l l s i z e , reduced and inconsp i cuous , to l a c k nectar and odor , and to be c l u s t e r e d i n dense i n f l o r e s c e n c e s ; the anthers have abundant, l i g h t , dry p o l l e n , and the stigmas have an expanded surface a rea . Anemo-p h i l o u s spec ies are f r equen t ly u n i s e x u a l , perhaps because s e l f -p o l l i n a t i o n i n an he rmaphrod i t i c , w i n d - p o l l i n a t e d f lower would be i n e v i t a b l e w i t h such a h i g h i nc idence of p o l l e n per u n i t area i n the immediate v i c i n i t y of the anthers ( F a e g r i and van der P i j l 1971). Then t o o , when p o l l e n i s the i n s e c t a t t r a c t a n t , the e v o l u t i o n o f u n i s e x u a l f lowers should tend toward anemo-p h i l y , s i nce entomophilous p l an t s would su f f e r a r e d u c t i o n i n the number of i n s e c t v i s i t s to female f lowers (Kaplan and Mulcahy 1971). U n i s e x u a l f lowers are found i n such wind-p o l l i n a t e d spec ies as M y r i c a g a l e , E m p e t r u m n i g r u m , C a r e x spp., and Thalictrum occidentale. I f an anemophilous spec ies has hermaphrodi t ic f l o w e r s , these are f r equen t ly s t r o n g l y dichogamous e g . , P l a n t a g o m a r i t i m a ( F i g . 115) and P. m a c r o c a r p a , S a l i c o r n i a v i r g i n i c a ( F i g . 116a S b ) , T r i g l o c h i n m a r i t i m u m , J u n c u s spp. ( F i g . 117) , L u z u l a s p p . , and S c i r p u s c e s p i t o s u s ( F i g . 118) . The genus Thalictrum p rov ides e x c e l l e n t examples of these t r ends . Kaplan and Mulcahy (19 71) showed tha t the d i o e c i o u s and p o l y -gamous spec ies of Thalictrum are i n gene ra l the most anemo-p h i l o u s , w h i l e hermaphrodite species are the most entomophilous. Fur thermore, the hermaphrodite Thalictrum species are d i c h o -gamous (Faeg r i and van der P i j l 1971). F i n a l l y , as an e c o l o g i c a l c o r o l l a r y , wind p o l l i n a t i o n most o f t en predominates i n open v e g e t a t i o n w i t h clumped species d i s t r i b u t i o n s (Whitehead 19 69) .

However-, as mentioned be fo re , s i x : t y p i c a l l y anemophilous s a l t marsh species are a l s o v i s i t e d by p o l l e n - f o r a g i n g bumble bees. Pojar (1973b) has d i scussed the p o s s i b l e s i g n i f i c a n c e o f t h i s f o r t u i t o u s entomophi ly .

The bumble bees seem to have responded to a p a u c i t y of p o l l e n - r i c h entomophilous f lowers by s h i f t i n g t h e i r p o l l e n - g a t h e r i n g a c t i v i t i e s to spec ies t h a t , i n most o ther c i r cums tances , would be ignored . Anemophily i s now g e n e r a l l y cons idered to be a d e r i v e d c o n d i t i o n i n angiosperms (Whitehead 1969; Kugle r 1970; Stebbins 1970a; F a e g r i and van der P i j l 1971). Apparent r e v e r s i o n s from wind p o l l i n a t i o n to secondary entomophily have occur red i n the t r o p i c a l sedge Dichromena oiliata (Leppik 1955; Baker 1963), i n c e r t a i n t r o p i c a l r a i n f o r e s t grasses (Soderstrom and Calderon 1971), inr ' the geniis -.Salix, and e x t e n s i v e l y i n the f a m i l y Moraceae (Stebbins 1970a). Other observers have noted p o l l e n -fo rag ing v i s i t s by honey bees (Bogdan 19 62) and hover f l i e s ( C l i f f o r d 1964) to grass f l o w e r s , and by honey bees to Plantago lanceolata ( C l i f f o r d 1962). In c o n t r a s t , adapt ive s h i f t s from i n s e c t to wind p o l l i n a t i o n are a l s o apparent i n some groups.

In the study communties, Plantago maritima, P. m a c r o c a r p a , and T h a l i c t r u m o o c i d e n t a l e ( F i g . 119a & b) are a l l predominant ly w i n d - p o l l i n a t e d . Thalictrum (Ranunculaceae) and Sanguisorba (Rosaceae) are two genera tha t belong to over -whelmingly entomophilous f a m i l i e s , but never the less c o n t a i n some anemophilous species (Knuth 1906-1909; Stebbins 1970a). Sanguisorba officinalis ( F i g . 120) , a t a l l p e r e n n i a l herb o f the sphagnum bogs, has apetalous f lowers w i t h lobed stigmas and the f lowers are aggregated i n a dense i n f l o r e s c e n c e . But the deep maroon-purple f lowers are markedly n e c t a r i f e r o u s , have s t i c k y (not powdery) orange p o l l e n , and are p o l l i n a t e d by d i p t e r a n s .

A b i o t i c d i s p e r s a l methods are very important i n a l l four communities.

Many of the s a l t marsh and bog spec ies are hydrochorous merely because they grow i n wet areas t h e i r propagules are not p a r t i c u l a r l y adapted f o r f l o t a t i o n . However, the somewhat i n f l a t e d , i ndeh i scen t capsules of Plantago macrocarpa ( F i g . 147) , the spongy d iaspores of Salicornia virginica, the t h i c k -w a l l e d p e r i g y n i a of C a r e x lyngbyei ( F i g . 148) and C. o b n u p t a , the corky mericarps of Lilaeopsis oooidentalis , and the c o r k y , winged f r u i t s of M y r i c a gale and S a n g u i s o r b a o f f i c i n a l i s are a l l w e l l adapted f o r bouyancy and water d i s p e r s a l .

S a v i l e (1972) cons iders a s i m i l a r mode of d i s p e r s a l to be of prime importance to A r c t i c s p e c i e s . B i o t i c d i s p e r s a l i n genera l i s most important i n the s a l t marsh, of in te rmedia te importance i n the sphagnum bogs, and l e a s t important i n the subalpine meadow. B i o t i c d i s p e r s a l i n the s a l t marsh i s predominant ly ep izoochorous , and the t r anspo r t i s p r i m a r i l y i n mud tha t adheres to the feet and plumage o f water fowl and the feet and h a i r of g r az ing animals ( R i d l e y 1930). Transpor t by adhesion of desmochores to animals a l s o p lays an important r o l e i n marsh seed d i s p e r s a l . D i s p e r s a l v i a animal i n g e s t i o n of f l e s h y f r u i t s (endozoochory) i s common i n the sphagnum bogs, but the sarcochorous spec ies are minor elements of the bog vege t a t i on (Table 15) . B i o t i c d i s p e r s a l i n the subalp ine meadow i s p r i m a r i l y by adhesive ep izoochory , but s i m i l a r l y the desmochores belong to subordinate spec i e s . In summary, b i o t i c d i s p e r s a l i s much more p reva len t i n the s a l t marsh and bogs than i n the suba lp ine meadow, where most of the species are w i n d - d i s p e r s e d . What i s the s i g n i f i c a n c e of t h i s genera l d i f f e r e n c e i n community d i s p e r s a l pa t t e rns? 125 Stebbins (1971a) main ta ins tha t animal d i s p e r s a l i s more e f f i c i e n t than wind d i s p e r s a l across long d i s t ances because an ima l s , e s p e c i a l l y migra to ry a n i m a l s , are more p r e d i c t a b l e i n t h e i r movements and more s e l e c t i v e i n h a b i t a t - t o - h a b i t a t t r a n s -por t than i s w ind .

None of the three vege t a t i on types are ex tens ive or continuous i n nor thwestern North Amer ica . S a l t marshes and c o a s t a l sphagnum bogs occur i n i s o l a t e d patches a long the nor th P a c i f i c coas t . In view of the extreme i m p r o b a b i l i t y and l i k e l y i n e f f i c a c y of long d i s t ance p o l l i n a t i o n .(cf. E h r l i c h 5 a n d Raven 19 69; End le r 1973) , gene f low between popu la t ions of marsh and bog species must be p r i m a r i l y v i a long d i s t ance seed d i s p e r s a l by an imals . Subalpine meadows, though f a r from being a continuous or dominant element of the t o t a l v e g e t a t i o n , are much more ex tens ive i n the c o r d i l l e r a o f P a c i f i c North America than are s a l t marshes and bogs a long the coas t . Mountain meadows cou ld ac t as s tepping stones f o r a sequence of r e l a t i v e l y s h o r t , wind-d i spe r sed hops, and i n t h i s s i t u a t i o n i n t e r p o p u l a t i o n gene f low i s probably not as dependent on long d i s t ance seed d i s p e r s a l . Furthermore, gene f low v i a p o l l i n a t i n g i n s e c t s i s probably more e f f i c i e n t i n the meadows, not on ly because i n s e c t p o l l i n a t i o n i s much more common but a l s o because e f f e c t i v e long d i s t ance p o l l i n a t i o n i s mediated more f r equen t ly by i n s e c t s than wind ( E h r l i c h and Raven 1969; Janzen 1971b). Thus i t appears tha t the two methods of gene f low i n p l a n t s , p o l l i n a t i o n and d i s p e r s a l , ac t i n concer t and compensation i n ma in t a in ing what one must 126 assume is an optimum or near-optimum rate of gene exchange within the species of the community types.

The n iche concept and compe t i t i on theory have been n e a t l y combined i n the s o - c a l l e d \"compe t i t i ve e x c l u s i o n p r i n c i p l e \" (Cole I960; Hard in 1960; Pa t ten 1961; DeBach 1966) tha t s t a tes tha t no two species can c o - e x i s t i n d e f i n i t e l y i f t h e i r n iches are i d e n t i c a l .

Species w i l l tend to evolve away from d i r e c t compe t i t i on where one or more spec ies i s at a s e l e c t i v e d isadvantage . Recent e c o l o g i c a l theory (Dobzhansky 1950; Odum 1969; S lobodk in and Sanders 1969; Baker 1970) has i t tha t n iche s p e c i a l i z a t i o n of species i n \" so f t \" and\/or p r e d i c t a b l e p h y s i c a l environments w i l l be more h i g h l y developed than i n harsh and\/or unp red ic t ab l e environments. Benninghoff (19 69) c a l l s the f i r s t type o f species \"pauc ive r san t \" ; the second, \" m u l t i v e r s a n t \" . Pauc iversan t species are s a i d to have narrower n iches and t h i s i s p robably t r u e , s i n c e communities of pauc ive r san t species are more d i v e r s e (Baker 1970) and the inc reased i n t e r s p e c i f i c compe t i t i on accompanied by resource s p e c i a l i z a t i o n should reduce the s i z e of both the r e a l i z e d and fundamental n i c h e . M u l t i v e r s a n t spec ies are b e l i e v e d to have l a r g e n iches tha t are op t ima l i n u n c e r t a i n environments (Lev ins 1968). Dominance can be def ined as \"the a p p r o p r i a t i o n of p o t e n t i a l n iche space of c e r t a i n subordinate spec ies by o ther dominant spec ies\" (McNaughton and Wolf 1970). As w i t h c o m p e t i t i o n , 129 dominance i s best manifested w i t h i n a t r o p h i c l e v e l . There are two aspects to a d i s c u s s i o n of dominance and the n i c h e : the s i t u a t i o n as i t e x i s t s w i t h i n a p a r t i c u l a r community, and any pa t te rns tha t may e x i s t between d i f f e r e n t communities. The f o l l o w i n g d i s c u s s i o n owes much to the papers of Mcin tosh (1970) and McNaughton and Wolf (1970). W i t h i n a community, the more abundant, dominant species w i l l exper ience a h i g h degree of i n t r a s p e c i f i c c o m p e t i t i o n . Th i s w i l l tend to generate i n d i v i d u a l homozygosity and p o p u l a t i o n he t e rogene i ty . Less abundant, s c a t t e r e d spec ies w i l l exper ience inc reased i n t e r s p e c i f i c c o m p e t i t i o n ; t h i s w i l l l e ad to i n d i v i d u a l h e t e r o z y g o s i t y and p o p u l a t i o n homogeneity. In e i t h e r case , the degree of i n d i v i d u a l or p o p u l a t i o n v a r i a b i l i t y w i l l depend on the r e l a t i v e amounts of inb reed ing and the s t r eng th of s e l e c t i o n . Evidence tha t i n t r a s p e c i f i c compe t i t i on crea tes g rea t e r i n t r a p o p u l a t i o n a l v a r i a b i l i t y w i t h i n the competing p l a n t species than does i n t e r s p e c i f i c compe t i t i on comes from the work o f J a i n (1969) and J a i n and M a r s h a l l (1967).

Moreover, compe t i t i on a s i d e , the more abundant, dominant spec ies should have g rea te r v a r i a b i l i t y i n par t because t h e i r l a r g e r popu la t ions are l i k e l y to c o n t a i n more b i o t y p e s , and i f they have broader l i m i t s of t o l e r ance they w i l l a l s o have 130 g rea te r phenotypic v a r i a b i l i t y than subordinate s p e c i e s . This phenotypic- v a r i a b i l i t y i s l i k e l y to have a l a r g e gene t ic component (Bradshaw 1972). W i t h i n a community, t hen , the dominant spec ies should have l a r g e r n iches (Levins 196 8; McNaughton and Wolf 1970).and concomi tan t ly g rea t e r p o p u l a t i o n he te rogene i ty and morpho log ica l v a r i a b i l i t y (Van Valen ,196 5 ;'\u2022 Van Valen et al. 1970) than subordinate s p e c i e s . To t e s t t h i s hypothes is i t i s necessary to have a v a l i d measure o f n iche wid th or s i z e . McNaughton and W o l f ' s (1970) measure s i m p l i f i e s to zero i f there i s on ly one community f o r each s p e c i e s , as i s the case i n t h i s s tudy.

However, as s t r i c t l y d e f i n e d , species d i v e r s i t y i s a f u n c t i o n of the numbers of species present ( spec ies r i c h n e s s ) and the evenness w i t h which the t o t a l number of i n d i v i d u a l s (or t o t a l biomass) i n a community i s d i s t r i b u t e d among these spec ies ( spec ies e q u i t a b i l i t y ) . D i v e r s i t y and r i c h n e s s are u s u a l l y p o s i t i v e l y c o r r e l a t e d , but not n e c e s s a r i l y so (Johnson and Raven 1970; H u r l b e r t 1971). In the four study communit ies, the number of spec ies per community i s l i n e a r l y r e l a t e d to the spec ies d i v e r s i t y o f these communities ( F i g . 153) . D i v e r s i t y can be c a l c u l a t e d by a number of formulas (Mcintosh 1967a; L loyd et al. 1968; H u r l b e r t 1971; Whi t t aker 1972). The most commonly used i s the Shannon-Wiener i n f o r m a t i o n i n d e x , H ' = - p ^ l o g p ^ , where H ' i s the species d i v e r s i t y and p^ i s the p r o p o r t i o n of i n d i v i d u a l s (or biomass) i n the i - t h s p e c i e s . Th i s f u n c t i o n i s d e r i v e d from in fo rma t ion theory accord ing to the l o g i c t h a t , s i nce d i v e r s i t y i s a f u n c t i o n of the number of p o s s i b l e i n t e r a c t i o n s i n a system and the degree to which they are s t r u c t u r e d (Johnson and Raven 1970), d i v e r s i t y should inc rease as the number of spec ies inc reases and as the d i s t r i b u t i o n o f i n d i v i d u a l s i n t o spec ies becomes more even. The concept of d i v e r s i t y has proven most u s e f u l i n i n t e r p r e t a t i o n s of l a r g e - s c a l e p o p u l a t i o n a l pa t te rns i n na ture . For example, spec ies d i v e r s i t y o f both f l o r a s and faunas has 152 repea ted ly been observed to inc rease i n a g rad ien t from c o l d c l ima te s toward the warm t r o p i c s and from h i g h e l e v a t i o n s downward ( F i s c h e r 1960; MacArthur 1965; P ianka 1966; Baker 1970). Rough p o s i t i v e c o r r e l a t i o n s have been made between the area of i s l a n d s and the d i v e r s i t y of t h e i r b i o t a (MacArthur and Wi l son 1967; Johnson et al. 1968; Johnson and Raven 1970, 1973; S i m b e r l o f f 1970).

D i v e r s i t y o f t en inc reases w i t h success ion (Margalef 1963; Monk 1967; Odum 1969; Reiners et al. 1971) , but i n some cases 153 decreases from l a t e s u c c e s s i o n a l stages to the c l imax (Loucks 1970; A u c l a i r and Goff 1971). Reiners et al. (1971) fo l lowed changes i n d i v e r s i t y dur ing success ion on g l a c i a l moraines of known age i n G l a c i e r Bay, A l a s k a . They found tha t an i n i t i a l r a p i d inc rease i n d i v e r s i t y dur ing the f i r s t 10 0 years was fo l l owed by a more g radua l inc rease to a maximum i n the muskeg steady s ta te (c l imax) at 200 years p lus (up to 1500 y e a r s ? ) . Success ion at G l a c i e r Bay proceeds from bare ground to shrub t h i c k e t s to a l d e r and cottonwood f o r e s t s t o S i t k a spruce and hemlock f o r e s t s and e v e n t u a l l y v i a p a l u d i f i c a t i o n to muskeg. Inasmuch as I i m p l i c a t e d p a l u d i f i c a t i o n of c o a s t a l f o r e s t i n the format ion o f the Tof ino area sphagnum bogs, one would expect tha t Wade's Bog, the most s u c c e s s i o n a l l y advanced, would have a h i g h e r d i v e r s i t y than Ogg's Bog. However, such i s not the case (Table 18 ) . There i s l i t t l e agreement as to the causes of d i f f e r e n c e s and g rad ien t s i n species d i v e r s i t y . Attempts have been made to e x p l a i n pa t te rns of d i v e r s i t y i n terms o f t ime a v a i l a b l e f o r e v o l u t i o n (Sanders 1969; Baker 1970), s p a t i a l he te rogene i ty of the p h y s i c a l environment (Ashton 1969; MacArthur 1969; Richards 1969; Whi t t aker 1972), i n t e r s p e c i f i c compe t i t i on (Dobzhansky 1950; M i l l e r 1969; Whi t t aker 1969) i n c l u d i n g a l l e l o p a t h y '.(Whittaker 1970b; Whi t t aker and Feeny 1971) , p r eda t i on pressure (Paine 1966; Spight 1967; Harper 1969; Janzen 1970) , hos t -p a r a s i t e i n t e r a c t i o n s (Barbehenn 1969), c l i m a t i c s t a b i l i t y or environmental p r e d i c t a b i l i t y (Sanders 19 68; S lobodk in and Sanders 1969), p r o d u c t i v i t y (Conne l l and Or ias 1964; McNaughton 1968; Singh and M i s r a 1969) , r e l a t i v e r a t e s of 154 of s p e c i a t i o n (Simpson 1964, 1969; S t e h l i et al. 1969), and va r ious combinations of the above (see P ianka 1966; Baker 1970; and Johnson and Raven 1970 fo r genera l d i s c u s s i o n s ) . This b r ings us to the ques t ion of the r e l a t i o n s h i p between d i v e r s i t y and s t a b i l i t y . As used he re , s t a b i l i t y does not r e f e r to the envi ronmenta l s t a b i l i t y o f the p rev ious paragraph, but i s to be understood r a t h e r as the s t a b i l i t y through time of a p l a n t community type . More p r e c i s e l y , the s t a b i l i t y of a community may be def ined as i t s r e s i s t a n c e to e x t e r n a l p e r t u r b -a t ions and consequent p e r s i s t e n c e i n time (Odum 1969; Pres ton 1969). Communities of g rea te r d i v e r s i t y are then s a i d to be more s t ab l e (Hutchinson 1959; Odum 1969; Whi t taker and Woodwell 1972; see Woodwell and Smith 1969). Given t h i s , and the f a c t tha t each o f the four study communities has a d i f f e r e n t species d i v e r s i t y , can I v a l i d l y c l a i m t h a t , f o r example, the s a l t marsh i s the l e a s t s t a b l e , and the subalpine meadow the most s t ab l e o f these communities? I t i s important to s p e c i f y the time s ca l e i n v o l v e d . In most d i s c u s s i o n s of d i v e r s i t y and s t a b i l i t y , a long- te rm ( e v o l u t i o n a r y ) view r a the r than a sho r t - t e rm ( s u c c e s s i o n a l ) view i s at l e a s t i m p l i c i t . Thus, we are d e a l i n g w i t h the p e r s i s t e n c e of a community type i n e v o l u t i o n a r y t i m e ; s u c c e s s i o n a l t rends are subl imated (McCullough 1970). When one speaks of the s t a b i l i t y of a community, one must i n c l u d e the s u c c e s s i o n a l phases of tha t community. For example, the e v o l u t i o n a r y future of the s a l t marsh community type i n v o l v e s both the p ioneer mud f l a t stages and the advanced h igh marsh, as w e l l as the degene ra t ive , eroded stages of the marsh ( c f . 155 R e d f i e l d 1972); heather meadows i n England ( B a r c l a y - E s t r u p 1970, 1971; B a r c l a y - E s t r u p and Gimingham 1969) and sugar maple f o r e s t s i n Wiscons in (Loucks 1970) evolve as systems o f seres c y c l e d by p e r i o d i c , random pe r tu rba t i ons ( c f .

The e v o l u t i o n a r y consequence of the proposed d i r e c t r e l a t i o n s h i p between d i v e r s i t y and s t a b i l i t y should be a p o t e n t i a l l y se l f -augment ing inc rease i n d i v e r s i t y (Hutchinson 1959; Whi t t aker 1969; Whi t t ake r and Woodwell 1972); i . e . , i f d i v e r s i t y inc reases s t a b i l i t y , there should be s e l e c t i o n f o r i n c r e a s e d d i v e r s i t y , which i n t u r n confers g rea te r s t a b i l i t y , e t c . Such a s e l e c t i v e mechanism r e q u i r e s tha t the p l a n t community i t s e l f be a u n i t of e v o l u t i o n (Whi t taker and Woodwell 1972).

Genes, c e l l s , organs , organisms, p o p u l a t i o n s , spec ies , communit ies , and ecosystems f u l f i l l these requirements and thus a l l can evolve (Lewontin 1970).

The c loseness of the o r g a n i z a t i o n decreases con t inuous ly i n the p r o g r e s s i o n : gene, c e l l , o rgan , organism, p o p u l a t i o n , s p e c i e s , community, ecosystem (Baker 1966a); or \" . . . c h a n c e p lays a grea ter r o l e at the ecosystem end of the p rog re s s ion\" (Langford and B u e l l 1969). A p l an t community may be viewed as a more or l e s s i n t e g r a t e d assemblage of spec ies r e s u l t i n g from \" n a t u r a l s e l e c t i o n ope ra t i ng between groups o f organisms and ad jus t i ng t h e i r mutual s t r a t e g i e s to permit i n c r e a s i n g d i v e r s i t y and more e f f i c i e n t environmenta l e x p l o i t a t i o n . . . \" (Harper 19 69) .

Note tha t t h i s does not r e q u i r e an organismic (Clements 19 36) concept of the p l an t community, nor does i t s t r i c t l y conform to the n o t i o n of a community as merely a f o r t u i t o u s assemblage of i n d i v i d u a l spec ies (Gleason 1926, 1939).

Now, a l l t h i s begs the q u e s t i o n , Does inc reased d i v e r s i t y really i nc rease s t a b i l i t y ?

For example, a monoculture (say a Midwestern c o r n f i e l d ) would be most s u s c e p t i b l e to an outbreak of a v i r u l e n t pathogen or p a r a s i t e or an h e r b i v o r e epidemic . Fur thermore, the more d i v e r s e a community i s , the b e t t e r i t should accommodate l e s s c a t a s t r o p h i c , commonplace occurrences such as death and replacement o f i n d i v i d u a l s , windthrow, d i s tu rbance by g r a z i n g or burrowing a n i m a l s , and en t ry of new t a x a .

The mechanisms of r ecovery from such d i s tu rbances have on ly begun to be s t ud i ed (L ikens et al. 1969; L ikens and Bormann 1972 158 Marks and Bormann 19 72) .

The g e n e r a l i z a t i o n tha t autogamous species have more r e s t r i c t e d recombina t ion systems than comparable xenogamous or o u t c r o s s i n g spec ies seems v a l i d . However, spec ies w i t h r e s t r i c t e d recombi -n a t i o n p o t e n t i a l do not dominate the vege t a t i on of any o f the study communit ies; indeed , they are u s u a l l y very minor elements ( c f . Tables 3, 4 , 5, 6 w i t h Table Table 19) . Furthermore, no 187 s i g n i f i c a n t d i f f e r e n c e was found between l e v e l s of p o t e n t i a l recombinat ion w i t h i n any of the communities. This f i n d i n g i s at odds w i t h Mosquin 's (1966) t h e s i s tha t species of harsh p h y s i c a l environments have r ep roduc t i ve s p e c i a l i z a t i o n s fo r reduc ing gene t i c v a r i a b i l i t y ; i . e . , c l o sed recombina t ion systems. Of course , i t i s d i f f i c u l t t o decide which of the four communities has the harshest p h y s i c a l environment. The c l ima te of the Tof ino area may be c l a s s e d as warm, temperate , and r a i n y ; tha t of the subalp ine meadow as c o n t i n e n t a l , c o l d , and humid but summer dry ( a f t e r K r a j i n a 19 65) . The o v e r a l l c l i m a t e of the subalp ine meadow might thus be cons idered harsher . But there are l o c a l microenvi ronmenta l c o m p l i c a t i o n s , The s a l t marsh i s subjec ted to great ranges i n d a i l y temperature , and the p l a n t s are p e r i o d i c a l l y baked by the sun and f looded by s a l t water (Chapman 1960, 19 64) . Dur ing the growing season, p l an t s i n the suba lp ine meadow are exposed to great d i u r n a l temperature f l u c t u a t i o n bo'thaabpveaand below ground (Kuramoto and B l i s s 197 0; B a l l a r d 1972),and may a l s o experience mois ture s t r e s s on s h a l l o w , w e l l - d r a i n e d s o i l s (Eady 1971).

The d i f f e r e n t l e v e l s of p o l y p l o i d y i n the three vege t a t i on types seemed to be best exp l a ined by d i f f e r e n t degrees of e n v i r o n -mental i n s t a b i l i t y . However, the l o g i c of Sec t . I I I - C does not apply to the f i n d i n g s of the I . P . R . , of which p o l y p l o i d y i s but one aspec t . D i f f e r e n t s e l e c t i o n pressures have been ope ra t i ng i n s a l t marshes, sphagnum bogs, and suba lp ine meadows, and d i f f e r e n t types of spec ies s t r a t e g i e s and community fea tures have evolved as a r e s u l t ('see s ec t .

I t i s not s u r p r i s i n g t ha t the I . P . R . ' s f o r the four communities are not s i g n i f i c a n t l y d i f f e r e n t .

To get some measure of t h i s i t would be necessary to study enzyme polymorphisms or seed p r o t e i n v a r i a b i l i t y or some such molecu la r approach. But even i f one community had more spec ies w i t h more h e t e r o z y g o s i t y than the other communit ies , one s t i l l cou ld not ma in ta in tha t tha t community had b e t t e r adapted spec ies than the o t h e r s , s ince spec ies adaptedness can be achieved e i t h e r by i n d i v i d u a l a d a p t a b i l i t y (a homeostat ic genotype) or by gene t i c a d a p t a b i l i t y ( d i v e r s i t y of genotypes) (Dobzhansky 1968; c f .

More than 7 0% of the spec ies o f both bogs are at l e a s t p a r t i a l l y s e l f - c o m p a t i b l e , but t h e i r f l o r a l and p o l l i n a t i o n b i o l o g y promote o u t c r o s s i n g . The dominant bog spec ies probably have f a i r l y l a rge n iches and v a r i a b l e p o p u l a t i o n s , but apparen t ly are r e l a t i v e l y , poor competi tors .

Subalpine meadow The suba lp ine meadow has the most f avorab le o v e r a l l p h y s i c a l environment dur ing the growing season, and probably even dur ing the w i n t e r .

My conc lus ions are best framed as answers to the three b a s i c ques t ions posed i n the I n t r o d u c t i o n . (1) Do p l an t communities of harsh p h y s i c a l environments e x h i b i t any c h a r a c t e r i s t i c p h y t o s o c i o l o g i c a l fea tures? Y e s , i f they have heterogeneous microtopographies (most d o ) , such communities w i l l have clumped spec ies popu la t ions and e x h i b i t s t rong i n t e r s p e c i f i c a s s o c i a t i o n and c o r r e l a t i o n . A l s o , l i f e - f o r m d i v e r s i t y w i l l be reduced i n communities where c o n d i t i o n s fo r growth are unfavorable f o r a major p o r t i o n of 199 each year ( e g . , a r c t i c and a l p i n e t und ra ) . An environment tha t i nc ludes c o n d i t i o n s tha t are severe but never the less w i t h i n the e c o l o g i c a l amplitude o f adapted species throughout most o f the year w i l l evolve many l i f e - f o r m s ( e g . , the Sonoran d e s e r t ) . (2) Are there any c o r r e l a t i o n s between environmenta l harshness and c e r t a i n s y n e c o l o g i c a l p r o p e r t i e s of such communities? Yes: (a) l e v e l s of p o l y p l o i d y w i t h i n the p l a n t communities i n t h i s i n v e s t i g a t i o n seem to be c o r r e l a t e d w i t h the degree of long- te rm phys iog raph ic i n s t a b i l i t y of the environment . (b) i f envi ronmenta l r i g o r i nc ludes a shortened growing season and i f the community i s p r i m a r i l y b i o t i c a l l y p o l l i n a t e d , i n t e r s p e c i f i c compe t i t i on f o r p o l l i n a t o r s w i l l i n c r e a s e , f l o w e r i n g times w i l l evolve d i f f e r e n t peaks , and there w i l l be s e l e c t i o n f o r e i t h e r showy, s p e c i a l i z e d f lowers or reduced, autogamous f l o w e r s . P ropo r t i ons of b i o t i c v s . a b i o t i c p o l l i n a t i o n and seed d i s p e r s a l are r e l a t e d only s e c o n d a r i l y to envi ronmenta l harshness ; they are e s s e n t i a l l y s ide e f f ec t s of s e l e c t i o n for an optimum growth form. I f hemic ryp tophy t i c g ra s ses , sedges , and rushes are best adapted f o r a c e r t a i n environment, wind p o l l i n a t i o n w i l l p r e v a i l ; i f herbaceous vege t a t i on i s f avo red , b i o t i c p o l l i n a t i o n w i l l predomi-nate .

There i s no a priori reason f o r one or the other mode o f p o l l i n a t i o n or d i s p e r s a l to p r e v a i l i n severe environments. 200 (c) n iche s i z e (at l e a s t w i t h respec t to p h y s i c a l parameters) and p o p u l a t i o n v a r i a b i l i t y inc rease as envi ronmenta l harshness inc reases and i n t e r s p e c i f i c compe t i t i on decreases . (d) dominance o f the community by r e l a t i v e l y few species inc reases as harshness i n c r e a s e s . (e) spec ies d i v e r s i t y i s a good i n d i c a t o r of o v e r a l l e n v i r o n -mental s e v e r i t y and the s e l e c t i v e m i l i e u w i t h i n a p l a n t community. However, t h i s i s t rue on ly i n e x t e r n a l p e r s p e c t i v e . A s a l t marsh has a more r i g o r o u s e n v i r o n -ment than a maple-basswood f o r e s t , but i n which community i s Salioornia v irg m i c a more l i k e l y to su rv ive? L o w - d i v e r s i t y communities of severe p h y s i c a l environments are not n e c e s s a r i l y l e s s s t a b l e than any other communities (3) Are spec ies of such communities s e l e c t e d fo r r e p r o d u c t i v e s p e c i a l i z a t i o n s tha t ( accord ing to e s t a b l i s h e d e v o l u t i o n a r y theory) tend to reduce gene t i c v a r i a b i l i t y ? No, there i s l i t t l e evidence tha t t h i s i s so i n the four study communities. A l l four are dominated by o u t c r o s s i n g s p e c i e s ; there i s no pronounced t rend toward autogamy or apo-m i x i s (one might p r e d i c t tha t autogamous species w i l l evolve i n any undis turbed n a t u r a l p l a n t community, but w i l l not dominate such a community). Fur thermore, there i s no s i g n i f i c a n t d i f f e r e n c e i n p o t e n t i a l r e combina t i on , on the average, between the spec ies of the four d i f f e r e n t communities.

Presumably, these l e v e l s of gene t ic v a r i a b i l i t y represent an e q u i l i b r i u m value adjusted by n a t u r a l s e l e c t i o n . The e q u i l i b r i u m can be mainta ined by a v a r i e t y of adap ta t ions . The d i f f e r e n t s t r a t e g i e s and adapta t ions of the species of the study communities r e f l e c t d i f f e r e n t types of s e l e c t i o n inheren t i n t h e i r community types .
