Plant diversity patterns in neotropical dry forests and their conservation implications

Dryflor, +67 more
- 23 Sep 2016 - 
TL;DR: Using 835 inventories covering 4660 species of woody plants, marked floristic turnover among inventories and regions indicates that numerous conservation areas across many countries will be needed to protect the full diversity of tropical dry forests.
Journal ArticleDOI

A phylogenetic framework for evolutionary study of the nightshades (Solanaceae): a dated 1000-tip tree

TL;DR: The authors' large time-calibrated phylogeny provides a significant step towards completing a fully sampled species-level phylogeny for Solanaceae, and provides age estimates for the whole family, and is one of the best sampled angiosperm family phylogenies both in terms of taxon sampling and resolution published thus far.
Journal ArticleDOI

Legume phylogeny and classification in the 21st century: Progress, prospects and lessons for other species-rich clades

TL;DR: This work examines how the legume systematic research community might join forces to produce a comprehensive phylogenetic estimate for the Leguminosae, and examines how morphology can be incorporated into legume phylogeny to address issues in comparative biology and classification.
Journal ArticleDOI

Amazon plant diversity revealed by a taxonomically verified species list

Domingos Cardoso, +44 more
TL;DR: A comprehensive dataset of Amazonian seed plant species from published sources that includes falsifiable data based on voucher specimens identified by taxonomic specialists is assembled, providing a valid starting point for macroecological and evolutionary studies aimed at understanding the origin, evolution, and ecology of the exceptional biodiversity ofAmazonian forests.
