Megafauna biogeography explains plant functional trait variability in the tropics
, 2020 Aim: Biomes can diverge substantially in plant functional traits and disturbance regimens among regions. Given that Neotropical and Afrotropical regions have contrasting histories of the megafauna (because of the Holocene megafaunal extinction in the ...

WorldCuP: A database of checklists documenting the World's Cultivated Plants and their distributions
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Human life would be unrecognizable without the benefits of cultivated plants, including crops, ornamentals, or plants with other uses. Despite their importance in daily life and prevalence across landscapes, we know surprisingly little about global cultivated plant distributions.
