Clonalidad y envejecimiento de Cytisus supranubius (Fabaceae) en la alta montaña de Tenerife.

Over half of the Cytisus supranubius shrub population in Teide National Park, Tenerife, is experiencing significant aging, with only 4% of individuals being juveniles. This study reveals a critical decline in sexual reproduction, exacerbated by clonal individuals producing fewer flowers, which worsens regeneration issues. The research attributes these problems primarily to the invasive European rabbit, highlighting urgent needs for better population control and conservation strategies to reverse this trend.
