Using population heterogeneity to define phenotypic diversity in the Dwarf palmetto (Sabal minor)

Project summary:

I aim to define genetic diversity of Sabal minor to understand evolutionary patterns associated with geographically restricted trunk variability (caulescent vs acaulescent). This work seeks to re-evaluate the circumscription of caulescent S. minor as the same species as acaulescent S. minor, a question that confounded L.H. Bailey and his contemporaries.
