Understanding the processes underpinning patterns of phylogenetic regionalization
A key step in understanding the distribution of biodiversity is the grouping of regions based
on their shared elements. Historically, regionalization schemes have been largely species …

Escarpment evolution drives the diversification of the Madagascar flora
Madagascar exhibits high endemic biodiversity that has evolved with sustained and stable
rates of speciation over the past several tens of millions of years. The topography of …

Global succulent biome phylogenetic conservatism across the pantropical Caesalpinia group (Leguminosae)
The extent to which phylogenetic biome conservatism vs biome shifting determines global
patterns of biodiversity remains poorly understood. To address this question, we …

Ten years of barcoding at the African Centre for DNA Barcoding
The African Centre for DNA Barcoding (ACDB) was established in 2005 as part of a global
initiative to accurately and rapidly survey biodiversity using short DNA sequences. The …

A global phylogenetic regionalization of vascular plants reveals a deep split between Gondwanan and Laurasian biotas
Existing global regionalization schemes for plants consider the compositional affinities
among biotas, but these have not explicitly considered phylogenetic information. Here, we …

Plant DNA‐barcode library and community phylogeny for a semi‐arid East African savanna
Applications of DNA barcoding include identifying species, inferring ecological and
evolutionary relationships between species, and DNA metabarcoding. These applications …

Phylogenetic delineation of regional biota: A case study of the Chinese flora
Biogeographical regionalization schemes have traditionally been constructed based on
taxonomic endemism of families, genera, and/or species, and rarely incorporated the …

A natural regionalization of the world based on primary biogeographic homology of terrestrial mammals
T Escalante - Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2017 - academic.oup.com
Primary biogeographic homology implies that different taxa are spatiotemporally integrated
in a biota with a common biogeographic history, namely naturalness. Primary spatial …

Trait hypervolumes based on natural history collections can detect ecological strategies that are distinct to biogeographic regions
Bioregionalisation partitions diversity so that similarity of the selected biological and
ecological variables is higher within regions than it is outside those regions. The classic …
