ABSTRACT Aim Species coexistence is based on resource partitioning and modulates biodiversity patterns across climates, latitudes and altitudes. Resource partitioning can occur via niche size or separation in the geographic range or ecological niche. While resource partitioning promotes biodiversity, the impact of different partitioning strategies on ...

Spatial Phylogenetics Reveals Endemism Hotspots and Conservation Priorities in Chinese Asteraceae
Based on the phylogenetic method and the spatial distribution data of 1092 Asteraceae plants in China, this study conducted a preliminary evaluation on the biodiversity and spatial phylogeny of Asteraceae plants in China for the first time and determined the biodiversity and endemic hotspots worthy of priority protection.

Fagales show “early burst” model of phenotypic disparification, with morphospace being filled during the early radiation of the Fagales crown and its major families. The elevated levels of phenotypic evolution often correspond to hotspots of gene duplication, whereas species diversification is decoupled from both phenotypic and genomic evolution ...

Convergent losses of arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis in carnivorous plants
Summary Most land plants form the ancient arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis, while carnivory is a younger trait that evolved in several angiosperm orders. The two biotic interactions similarly help plants acquire mineral nutrients, raising the question of whether they can coexist.

Solving three core challenges in transient dynamics analysis of matrix population models
Abstract Populations are at the mercy of random disturbances, large and small, and rarely, if ever, converge on predicted long‐term behaviours. Therefore, when using matrix population models, ecologists study the dynamics of populations that depart from stable distributions.

Convergent Evolution and the Diverse Ontogenetic Origins of Tendrils in Angiosperms
Climbers are abundant in tropical forests, where they constitute a major functional plant type. The acquisition of the climbing habit in angiosperms constitutes a key innovation.
