Table 1 Average number of alleles (A) (±s.e.), allelic richness based on minimum sample size in each stand (AR), observed heterozygosity (Ho), Nei’s 1973 expected heterozygosity (He), and the inbreeding coefficient (FIS), for Grevillea macleayana adults, and post-fire seedlings

From: Is the post-disturbance composition of a plant population determined by selection for outcrossed seedlings or by the composition of the seedbank?

  1. Data are presented for two stands of plants (lower and upper).
  2. aThe survival of all 2001 post-fire seedlings was monitored in 2007, 2009 and 2012.
  3. bLow survival precluded analysis.
