Evolutionary Changes in Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM) and Related Traits During the Diversification of <i>Aichryson</i> (Crassulaceae) on the Macaronesian Islands. [PDF]
We explore evolutionary changes in Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) and associated traits during the diversification of Aichryson (Crassulaceae) across the Macaronesian Islands. By combining field data, physiological measurements and phylogenetic analysis, we identify shifts in photosynthetic strategy linked to habitat transitions.

A revision of Artemia biodiversity in Macaronesia [PDF]
AbstractIn a biogeographical context, the term Macaronesia broadly embraces the North Atlantic archipelagos of the Azores, Madeira, Selvagens, the Canary Islands, and Cape Verde. The peculiar arid climatic conditions in some of these places have led to the development of marine salt exploitations, which can be counted among the hypersaline habitats of ...

Parallel evolution of arborescent carrots (Daucus) in Macaronesia [PDF]
PremiseDespite intensive research, the pathways and driving forces behind the evolution of derived woodiness on oceanic islands remain obscure. The genus Daucus comprises mostly herbs (therophytes, hemicryptophytes) with few rosette treelets (chamaephytes) endemic to various Macaronesian archipelagos, suggesting their independent evolution.
