In the 1950s Torreya taxifolia, a type of evergreen tree once very common in the state of Florida, started to die out. No one is sure exactly what caused the decline, but chances are good that if nothing is done, Torreya will soon become extinct Experts are considering three ways to address the decline of Torreya
The first option is to reestablish Torreya in the same location in which it thrived for thousands of years Torreya used to be found in abundance in the northern part of Florida, which has a specific microclimate A microclimate exists when weather conditions inside a relatively small area differ from the region of which that area is a part Northern Florida's microclimate is very favorable to Torreya's growth This microclimate is wetter and cooler than the surrounding region's relatively dry, warm climate Scientists have been working to plant Torreya seeds in the coolest, dampest areas of the microclimate
The second option is to move Torreya to an entirely different location, far from its Florida microclimate Torreya seeds and saplings have been successfully planted and grown in forests further north, where the temperature is significantly cooler. Some scientists believe that Torreya probably thrived in areas much further north in the distant past, so by relocating it now, in a process known as assisted migration, humans would simply be helping Torreya return to an environment that is more suited to its survival
The third option is to preserve Torreya in research centers, Seeds and saplings can be moved from the wild and preserved in a closely monitored environment where it will be easier for scientists both to protect the species and to conduct research on Torreya This research can then be used to ensure the continued survival of the species
Both reading and lecture discuss about Torreya taxifolia declination in the state of florida. Former provides three solution to prevent the extinction of torreya. However, latter rebuts this by claiming that none of these three solutions are not viable.
First of all, the author of the reading claims that reestabilishing of torreya in the microclamate of northern part of florida will save this tree. But the lecturer of lecture doesn't agree with this and claims these is not satisfactory for many reasons. He indicates that climate change will aided this area to increase temperature in this microclimate. Moreover, lands water will be drained and will make the land drier. These changing climate conditions are the contradiction of microclimate which is needed to grow torreya.
Secondly, the reading states that relocating torreya's previous location will allow to grow. In the contary, lecturer says that this will not solve the case rather endanger the other species. He provides the example of Black locust relocation which grows so quickly and outnumbes other plants. That's why this not a good option.
Finally. preserving torreya in research center to research and ensure future survival. The lecturer points out that this will not work either. He correya in the laboratory needs protection from disease and have to be genetically diverse. The research center is not capable of resisting disease in torreya and eventually cannot protect it's survival in the future.
