Fagaceae pollen from the early Cenozoic of West Greenland: revisiting Engler's and Chaney's Arcto-Tertiary hypotheses.

TL;DR: Comparison with coeval or older mid-latitude records of modern lineages of Fagaceae shows thatmodern lineages found in western Greenland and Axel Heiberg likely originated at lower latitudes, corroborate earlier findings that Fag growers were a dominant element at high latitudes during the early Cenozoic.
Journal ArticleDOI

Combined LM and SEM study of the middle Miocene (Sarmatian) palynoflora from the Lavanttal Basin, Austria: part IV. Magnoliophyta 2 – Fagales to Rosales

TL;DR: Köppen signatures of potential modern analogues of the fossil Fagales and Rosales suggest a subtropical climate at lower elevation and subsequent subtropICAL to temperate climate with altitudinal succession in the Lavanttal area during accumulation of the palynoflora.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biomolecular preservation of Tertiary Metasequoia Fossil Lagerstätten revealed by comparative pyrolysis analysis

TL;DR: It is revealed that both original molecular components and tissue-specific degradation control the final pyrolysis products from fossil material, thus suggesting that comparative studies of molecular preservation are best performed on an individual tissue basis within an evolutionarily conserved taxonomic lineage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Species relationships and divergence times in beeches: new insights from the inclusion of 53 young and old fossils in a birth-death clock model.

TL;DR: The fossilized birth–death model is applied to infer divergence times in beeches (genus Fagus), using 53 fossils and nuclear sequences for all nine species, fitting a hypothesized low turnover in plants adapted to low-nutrient conditions.
