Effect of Anatomical Structure on the Buoyancy of Achenes of Two Subspecies of Bolboschoenus maritimus

Differences between two subspecies of Bolboschoenus maritimus (L.) Palla (= Scirpus maritimus L.) in different habitats (littoral and terrestrial) are partly due to variations in the buoyancy of their achenes, caused by different anatomical structure of the fruits. This hypothesis was tested by comp...
