Older Lineages of Vascular Plants in Wetlands Dominate in Habitats That Are More Ubiquitous Across the Region: A Case Study in Southern Africa. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWetlands are dominated by different lineages of vascular plants in different habitats. ABSTRACT Vascular plants that presently grow and often dominate wetland habitats are mostly derived from ancestors adapted to dry terrestrial environments. We hypothesize that recently evolved wetland lineages dominate more challenging or novel wetland environments ...
