Abstract: | Even though plants represent an essential part of our lives offering exploitational,
supporting and cultural services, we know very little about the biology of the rarest and
most threatened plant species, and even less about their conservation status. Rapid
changes in the environment and climate, today more pronounced than ever, affect their
fitness and distribution causing rapid species declines, sometimes even before they had
been discovered. Despite the high goals set by conservationists to protect native plants
from further degradation and extinction, the initiatives for the conservation of threatened
species in Europe are scattered and have not yielded the desired results. The main aim of
this Action is to improve plant conservation in Europe through the establishment of a
network of scientists and other stakeholders who deal with different aspects of plant
conservation, from plant taxonomy, ecology, conservation genetics, conservation physiology and reproductive biology to protected area's managers, not forgetting social
scientists, who are crucial when dealing with the general public. |
