Description

Beta patula Population Assessment hosts information on plant communities in Madeira Island, Portugal. This archive consists of 1338 vegetation descriptions. The data provides information of a 5 year span vegetation census, from 2014 to 2018 in two uninhabited islets where Beta patula occurs covering Coastal Dry Grassland and Shrubland. This work is part of a EU LIFE Project, LIFE RECOVER NATURA and was conducted by members of the ISOPlexis Genebank Research Group of the University of Madeira.

The LIFE RECOVER NATURA - Beta patula Population Assessment was made to establish a baseline for the creation of a Genetic Reserve for this species. With this work it was also made a vegetation classification, species trend analysis, distribution maps of plant communities and Natura 2000 habitat types for the distribution areas of Beta patula.
