Recent biogeographic and evolutionary studies have led to improved understanding of the
origins of exceptionally high plant diversity in the California Floristic Province (CA-FP) …

Background There are conflicting views between palaeobotanists and plant systematists/
evolutionary biologists regarding the occurrence of plant speciation in the Quaternary …

The use of DNA sequence data in plant systematics has brought us closer than ever to
formulating well-founded hypotheses about phylogenetic relationships, and phylogenetic …

Quaternary climate fluctuations can affect speciation in regional biodiversity assembly in two
non-mutually exclusive ways: a glacial species pump, where isolation in glacial refugia …

Aim Past climatic oscillations are the main driving force of evolutionary changes in alpine
species. Species' response to paleoclimatic oscillations is crucial in forecasting their future …

There is still limited consensus on the evolutionary history of species-rich temperate alpine
floras due to a lack of comparable and high-quality phylogenetic data covering multiple plant …

Aquatic Dicotyledons of North America: Ecology, Life History, and Systematics brings
together a wealth of information on the natural history, ecology, and systematics of North …

Whole genome duplication is considered to be a significant contributor to angiosperm
speciation due to accumulation of rapid, strong interploid reproductive isolation. However …

Abstract The Mediterranean Basin harbors a remarkable amount of biodiversity, a high
proportion of which is endemic to this region. Here, we present an in-depth study of an …

Transoceanic distributions have attracted the interest of scientists for centuries. Less
attention has been paid to the evolutionary origins of 'continent‐wide'disjunctions, in which …
