Is the name of my dissertation correct?

Hello!
I'd like to ask if the name of my dissertation is correct (including commas). I think it should be OK, but it is always better to double-check. "Dispersal, distribution and genetic diversity of Melampyrum subalpinum group"
Thank you!

Is it a group, or is it a species? As a layman, I don't clearly understand the difference between dispersal and distribution. Clive

Dispersal is how the species disperses its seeds (myrmecochory and endozoochory in this case), distribution is the area where you can find the species. The question of group or species is unfortunately hard to tell, it is both. However I was asking mainly about the commas. I wonder if there should be comma before "and genetic diversity...". There is different way of punctuation in English compared

No. The comma is not necessary.
