Climate change and the African baobab (Adansonia digitata L.): the need for better conservation strategies
The baobab tree, with more than 300 uses and commercial value in EU and United States, has been identified as one of the most important trees to be conserved and domesticated in Africa. A decline in... -
You're so vein: bundle sheath physiology, phylogeny and evolution in C3 and C4 plants
Bundle sheath (BS) anatomy is found in most C4 lineages, associated with low inter-veinal distances (IVD) and high BS:mesophyll ratio (BS:MC). The origins, function and selective advantages of the BS... -
Climatic niche divergence or conservatism? Environmental niches and range limits in ecologically similar damselflies
The factors that determine species' range limits are of central interest to biologists. One particularly interesting group are odonates (dragonflies and damselflies), which show large... -
Using maps of continuous variation in species compositional turnover to supplement uniform polygon species range maps
Species ranges are often represented using polygons, with the attendant issues that they show uniform ranges with abrupt boundaries and can overestimate species ranges. We demonstrate that such... -
Combining historical biogeography with niche modeling in the Caprifolium clade of Lonicera (Caprifoliaceae, Dipsacales).
The Lonicera clade Caprifolium contains approximately 25 species distributed around the Northern Hemisphere, including in the Mediterranean climates of California and Europe. We sequenced the second... -
Diversification in North American arid lands: niche conservatism, divergence and expansion of habitat explain speciation in the genus Ephedra.
A lineage of 12 arid land shrubby species in the gymnosperm genus Ephedra (Gnetales) from North America is used to evaluate the influence of climate on speciation. With a long evolutionary history,... -
Global climate niche estimates for bioenergy crops and invasive species of agronomic origin: potential problems and opportunities
The global push towards a more biomass-based energy sector is ramping up efforts to adopt regionally appropriate high-yielding crops. As potential bioenergy crops are being moved around the world an... -
Global patterns of leaf defenses in oak species
Plant defensive traits drive patterns of herbivory and herbivore diversity among plant species. Over the past 30 years, several prominent hypotheses have predicted the association of plant defenses... -
Influence of environmental heterogeneity on genetic diversity and structure in an endemic southern Californian oak
Understanding how specific environmental factors shape gene flow while disentangling their importance relative to the effects of geographical isolation is a major question in evolutionary biology and... -
Latitude, elevational climatic zonation and speciation in New World vertebrates.
Many biodiversity hotspots are located in montane regions, especially in the tropics. A possible explanation for this pattern is that the narrow thermal tolerances of tropical species and greater...
