Alpine plant radiations are compared across the world's major mountain ranges and shown
to be overwhelmingly young and fast, largely confined to the Pliocene and Pleistocene, and …

Often, biogeography is applied only as a narrative addition to phylogenetic studies and lacks
scientific rigour. However, if research questions are framed as hypotheses, biogeographical …

Historical biogeography has a diversity of methods for inferring ancestral geographic ranges
on phylogenies, but many of the methods have conflicting assumptions, and there is no …

Historical biogeography is increasingly studied from an explicitly statistical perspective,
using stochastic models to describe the evolution of species range as a continuous-time …

" Rather than favoring only one approach, Juan J. Morrone proposes a comprehensive
treatment of the developments and theories of evolutionary biogeography. Evolutionary …

Abstract Background and Aims The breadfruit genus (Artocarpus, Moraceae) includes
valuable underutilized fruit tree crops with a centre of diversity in Southeast Asia. It belongs …

Over the last decade, molecular studies carried out on the Australasian biota have revealed
a new world of organic structure that exists from submicroscopic to continental scale …

Abstract The Sunda Arc forms an almost continuous chain of islands and thus a potential
dispersal corridor between mainland Southeast Asia and Melanesia. However, the Sunda …

The remarkable geological and evolutionary history of peninsular India has generated much
interest in the patterns and processes that might have shaped the current distributions of its …

Aim The role of long‐distance dispersal in the Indomalesian, Australasian and Pacific flora is
currently hotly debated. The lack of well‐resolved phylogenetic trees for Pacific plants has …
