Marine Biodiversity, Biogeography, Deep-Sea Gradients, and Conservation.

TL;DR: How many marine species are named and estimated to exist is assessed, paying particular regard to whether discoveries of deep-sea organisms, microbes and parasites will change the proportion of terrestrial to marine species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ecological specialization in Trebouxia (Trebouxiophyceae) photobionts of Ramalina menziesii (Ramalinaceae) across six range‐covering ecoregions of western North America

TL;DR: Geography, climate, and ecological specialization shape genetic differentiation of lichen photobiont strains of Ramalina menziesii.
Journal ArticleDOI

Environmental DNA assessment of airborne plant and fungal seasonal diversity.

TL;DR: A nine-month aerobiological study applying eDNA metabarcoding in which simultaneously airborne diversity and variation of fungi and plants across five locations in North and Central Italy, showed that the plant diversity from air samples is significantly correlated with seasons, while that of fungi varied according to the interaction between seasons and sites.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogeography of Ramalina menziesii, a widely distributed lichen‐forming fungus in western North America

TL;DR: Ramalina menziesii, an epiphytic lichenized fungus with a range encompassing major ecosystems from Baja California to Alaska, is studied to explore the predictions of two hypotheses: that the widespread distribution of R. menZiesii is due to a single migration episode from a single lineage or the formation and persistence of multiple lineages structured throughout the species' range.

Post-glacial re-colonization of European biota

TL;DR: Diversity from southern to northern Europe in the extent of allelic variation and species subdivision is seen; this is attributed to rapid expansion northward and the varied topography of southern refugia allowing populations to diverge through several ice ages.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic Consequences of Range Expansions

TL;DR: Interestingly, most of these patterns had been previously attributed to distinct selective processes, showing that taking into account the dynamic nature of a species range can lead to a paradigm shift in the authors' perception of evolutionary processes.

Dictionary of the Fungi

TL;DR: For each genus, the authority, the date of publication, status, systematic position, number of accepted species, distribution, and key references are given.
Journal ArticleDOI

Wind as a Long-Distance Dispersal Vehicle in the Southern Hemisphere

TL;DR: A stronger correlation of floristic similarities with wind connectivity than with geographic proximities supports the idea that wind is a dispersal vehicle for many organisms in the Southern Hemisphere.
