The evolution of African plant diversity
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2014 Sub-Saharan Africa includes some 45,000 plant species. The spatial patterns of this diversity have been well explored. We can group the species into a set of biogeographical regions (largely co-incident with regions defined for terrestrial vertebrate ...

The global loss of floristic uniqueness
Nature Communications, 2021 Humans have altered plant biogeography by introducing species from one region to another, but an analysis of how naturalized plant species affect the uniqueness of regional floras around the world was missing.

Early recognition by Ball and Hooker in 1878 of plant back-colonization (boomerang) events from Macaronesia to Africa [PDF]
, 2020 Recent work in island biogeography has shown that back-colonization (‘boomerang’ events) from islands to continents have occurred more frequently than previously understoodWe report possibly the earliest inference of this pattern, by John Ball and Joseph

Extracting predictive models from marked-p free-text documents at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, London [PDF]
, 2014 In this paper we explore the combination of text-mining, un-supervised and supervised learning to extract predictive models from a corpus of digitised historical floras.

The Mastogloia stage in the Baltic Sea history: diatom evidence from southern Finland [PDF]
Bulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1984 Studies of ancient Baltic sediments obtained from isostatically uplifted lake basins near Helsinki, on the south coast of Finland, have yielded diatom sequences across the transition from Ancylus Lake to Litorina Sea strata.
