Um método de análise de populações vegetais

In a rpevious paper it was shown that the ecolocogical succession phenomenon is correlated with the phylogenetic progression. Also, in "indifferent genera", following well stablished evolutionary trends, it was found that the species of generalized morphology pertain to the pioneer's habitants, while the more differentiated species are confined to more stabilized habitats (DIRECT METHOD). Among the "characteristic genera", it was also found that the monotopics occur with higher relative frequency in the final stages of the succession, while those genera with a dispersion area covering more than one biogeographical realm have a higher relative frequency in the pioneer stages. Taking the monotopic genera, with exepcion of the occasional very rare relics, as modern ones, and the polytopics as the older genera, the above mentioned correlation is again indicated. (INDIRECT METHOD). In the present paper the use of the "indirect method" as applied to plant populations has been demonstrated.
