The status of genomics and genetics research in the Myrtaceae, a large family of
dicotyledonous woody plants, is reviewed with Eucalyptus as the focal genus. The family …

Plant species with broad climatic ranges might be more vulnerable to climate change than
previously appreciated due to intraspecific variation in climatic stress tolerance. In tropical …

Although trees comprise a primary component of terrestrial species richness, the drivers and
temporal scale of divergence in trees remain poorly understood. We examined the …

The neotropical rust fungus Puccinia psidii (P. psidii) was originally described from the host
