High-throughput biodiversity analysis: Rapid assessment of species richness and ecological interactions of Chrysomelidae (Coleoptera) in the tropics [PDF]
Biodiversity assessment has been the focus of intense debate and conceptual and methodological advances in recent years. The cultural, academic and aesthetic impulses to recognise and catalogue the diversity in our surroundings, in this case of living ...

Extrapolating demography with climate, proximity and phylogeny: approach with caution [PDF]
Plant population responses are key to understanding the effects of threats such as climate change and invasions. However, we lack demographic data for most species, and the data we have are often geographically aggregated.

Adaptations of succulent plants for survival in desert ecosystems [PDF]
Cilj ovog seminara bio je nabrojati prilagodbe sukulentnih biljaka koje su im nužne za preživljavanje u pustinjskim ekosustavima. Sukulenti su biljke koje imaju posebne morfološke i ekofiziološke prilagodbe za pojačano primanje i pohranu vode.

Morphology and angiosperm systematics in the molecular era [PDF]
Several ways in which morphology is used in systematic and evolutionary research in angiosperms are shown and illustrated with examples: 1) searches for special structural similarities, which can be used to find hints for hitherto unrecognized ...

Abstract Malvales is a diverse order of flowering plants, economically and ecologically relevant, and it is known for its broad morphological variability. Recent phylogenomic studies have revealed a complex evolutionary history for the order, including localised phylogenetic discordances among nuclear loci.

Angiosperm ovules: diversity, development, evolution [PDF]
Background Ovules as developmental precursors of seeds are organs of central importance in angiosperm flowers and can be traced back in evolution to the earliest seed plants.

Metal hyperaccumulation in the Indonesian flora
I summarize all known metal (Al, Co, Cu, Ni and Zn) hyperaccumulator plants from Indonesia. Their distributions and IUCN Red List status are noted. The paper aims to catalyze further hyperaccumulator research and conservation in Indonesia. Abstract In this review, I examined the number, distribution, and metal concentrations of all known metal ...

Characterization of the basal angiosperm Aristolochia fimbriata: a potential experimental system for genetic studies [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Previous studies in basal angiosperms have provided insight into the diversity within the angiosperm lineage and helped to polarize analyses of flowering plant evolution.
