11. In restricted regions, with their own micro climate or special edaphic features, plant formations assume different characters. 12. Edaphic qualities may characterize the soil itself, including drainage, endemic to areas of a specific soil type.13. Plants depend on certain edaphic ( soil ) and climatic factors in their environment but can modify these factors too. 14. Market ideotype, climatic ideotype, edaphic ideotype, stress ideotype and disease / pest ideotypes are its other concepts. 15. Small marble-sized, iron-bearing granules are present at all sites and are likely an edaphic requirement. 16. This edaphic sky island holds the northern range extension of Sargent cypress ( " Cupressus sargentii " ). 17. "Trigonopterus " species inhabit primary tropical forests, both on foliage and edaphic in the litter layer. 18. This mosaic is not just a response to exposure or edaphic factors but is also strongly influenced by fire disturbance. 19. Presumably this is partly due to the edaphic and topographic features that define a number of discrete regions and ecological gradients. 20. The vegetation is dry deciduous scrub type, with most of it being stunted due to harsh climatic and edaphic factors.
