Late 21st-Century Climate and Land Use Driven Loss of Plant Diversity in African Mountains. [PDF]
Glob Chang BiolBy the end of this century, many African mountain plants may lose large parts of their suitable habitats as the climate warms and land use changes. Even under a sustainable pathway limiting warming to under 2°C, nearly half of the 607 studied species are projected to contract their ranges, with losses even greater under higher emission scenarios ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.A two‐phase SNP discovery and assay‐development strategy was used to resolve species boundaries within the tree genus Greyia, as overlapping phenotypes and distributions limit accurate identification. From 47,726 genome‐wide SNPs generated by 3RAD sequencing, a diagnostic 23‐SNP Type panel was developed and validated, successfully distinguishing G ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.We present here the first quantitative assessment of plant endemics from the Manica Highlands (Zimbabwe‐Mozambique), totalling 216 taxa, representing over 9% of the estimated total flora. A major finding is that 173 (80%) endemic taxa are principally or entirely confined to open montane habitats such as grassland, bare rock, crags and scrub or dwarf ...
