Endemism Centres of the Five Richest Vascular Epiphyte Families in the Neotropics

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 1, Page 80-91, January 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Endemic species, characterised by limited geographic ranges, face a high risk of extinction. The neotropical region harbours diverse ecosystems and a substantial number of endemic species, thus identifying areas of high endemism is crucial for protecting unique and threatened species and ecosystems.

Expansions and contractions of the inverted repeat, as well as gene loss and potential pseudogenization shape plastome evolution in Hechtioideae (Bromeliaceae, Poales)

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 421-437, May 2024.
Analysis of complete plastome sequences obtained by whole‐genome sequencing improved statistical support across different phylogenetic depths in Hechtioideae and allowed the identification of highly informative loci previously unexplored in this lineage.
