  13. The conservation genetics of the Clanwilliam cedar (Widdringtonia cedarbergensis) by Thomas, Janet Clare

    Published 2016
    “…The relationship between germination rate and seedling:parent ratio, in particular, indicated that genetic phenomena are impacting the demography of populations. Reductions in fitness occurred in several traits below 30% heterozygosity and became critical below 25% heterozygosity. 30% heterozygosity occurred below a population size scale of 4 (4000 individuals) and 25% heterozygosity occurred below a population size scale of 1 (250 individuals). …”
