To this end, we focused on Petromarula pinnata (Campanulaceae), a vulnerable local plant endemic to Crete (Greece) that has been garnering interest for its agro-alimentary, medicinal, and ornamental value. A GIS ecological profile was established herein based on the natural distribution of this species in Crete. This profile contains detailed information on the climatic cond… Show more
