Persistence and genetic vulnerability of tropical tree species in response to anthropogenic disturbances
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/162709
Abstract
Tropical forests face numerous threats, including overexploitation, selective logging, and
fragmentation arising from landscape changes. These disturbances reduce tree population
density and increase distances between individuals, altering their reproductive behaviour.
Decreased numbers of mature trees and disrupted gene flow reduce reproductive success and
genetic diversity,…

The impact of translocation mechanisms and plant architecture on the success or failure of propagation, a thidiazuron case study
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/158333
Abstract
While developing a propagation method for coconut (Cocos nucifera), we observed that the addition of thidiazuron (TDZ), a phenylurea based cytokinin, to the medium, did not elicit a reaction. We hypothesized that the apical dominance was too strong, preventing the TDZ from initiating shoot proliferation. To test this, we broke the apical dominance by cutting the…

Abstract
The Tank Cascade System (TCS) is an ancient, man-made rainwater harvesting and irrigation system unique to Sri Lanka’s dry zone. An ecosystem in itself, the TCS consists of an intricate network of small to large ‘tanks’ positioned along a gradient and connected through a series of canals. Within the system, paddy fields and dense forests coexist providing habitats for socio-ecologically…
