Progress and problems in the assessment of flower morphology in higher-level systematics [PDF]
Floral features used for characterization of higher-level angiosperm taxa (families, orders, and above) are assessed following a comparison of earlier (precladistic/premolecular) and current classifications.

On the Importance of Expert‐Informed Variable Selection in Species Distribution Modelling
ABSTRACT Aim Species Distribution Models (SDMs) are widely used to map species distribution and predict future responses to climate change. While the risk of selecting biologically non‐relevant predictors has been raised, numerous studies continue to fully rely on statistical approaches to automatically select predictors solely focusing on climate ...

Spermatophyta Molecular Clock: Time Drift and Recent Acceleration
Exponential increase in the base substitution rate in recent geologic time. ABSTRACT Angiospermae radiation is widely recognized as a mid‐Cretaceous event, but the adaptive radiation of Asarum and Viola as spring ephemerals also occurred during the Quaternary. To better understand the evolution of Angiospermae through geological time, a robust and well‐

A survey of generic names in Rubiaceae (Gentianales) with notes on context and patterns in naming
Abstract Rubiaceae is one of the most diverse angiosperm families and consequently is the topic of much systematic research. Plenty of literature exists on the familial, tribal, and species level; however, a comprehensive overview of the names at the generic level is lacking. The aim of this study is to present a survey of all names and designations at
