Phylogenetic diversity in the Iberian flora through the Cenozoic
Phylogenetic diversity reflects both community assembly and evolutionary diversification processes. Communities with low phylogenetic diversity might be the outcome of environmental filters favouring the occurrence and/or the diversification of lineages ...

Environmental and host plant effects on taxonomic and phylogenetic diversity of root fungal endophytes. [PDF]
Nearly all plants are colonized by fungal endophytes, and a growing body of work shows that both environment and host species shape plant-associated fungal communities.
