Abstract

Virtual Issues consist of previously published papers that are repackaged into an online themed collection. With appropriate marketing, and making them free for a limited time, these issues are a powerful tool that allow all readers to rediscover and access content already published. Release of this Virtual Issue of Australian Journal of Botany was timed to coincide with the 11th Australasian Plant Conservation Conference (APCC11), held on 14–18 November at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Melbourne. For more information, please visit: http://www.publish.csiro.au/bt/content/VirtualIssues.
