Concern over implications of climate change for biodiversity has led to the use of bioclimatic
models to forecast the range shifts of species under future climate-change scenarios. Recent …

In the past two decades, molecular investigations of systematic problems have progressed
from uncommon curiosities to a standard means of elucidating phylogenetic history. This …

Assessments of incongruence between sources of phylogenetic evidence have often been
largely intuitive, based simply on inspecting results from different data matrices. Even …

The long-awaited revision of the industry standard on phylogenetics Since the publication of
the first edition of this landmark volume more than twenty-five years ago, phylogenetic …

The field of plant taxonomy has transformed rapidly over the past fifteen years, especially
with regard to improvements in cladistic analysis and the use of new molecular data. The …

" The merits of this work are many. A rigorous integration of phylogenetic hypotheses into
studies of adaptation, adaptive radiation, and coevolution is absolutely necessary and can …

Character congruence, the principle of using all the relevant data, and character
independence are important concepts in phylogenetic inference, because they relate …
