PHYLOGENETIC ANALYSIS OF BACTERIAL COMMUNITIES IN PANCURAN 7 BATURRADEN HOT SPRING [PDF]
, 2006 The diversity of the bacterial communities supported by culturing and capturing through 0.2 m-pore-size filter was studied. The Pancuran 7 hot spring has temperature at around 52°C and pH 7.

Diversity of Lecidea (Lecideaceae, Ascomycota) species revealed by molecular data and morphological characters [PDF]
, 2010 The diversity of lichens, especially crustose species, in continental Antarctica is still poorly known. To overcome difficulties with the morphology based species delimitations in these groups, we employed molecular data (nuclear ITS and mitochondrial ...

Plastid 16S rRNA gene diversity among eukaryotic picophytoplankton sorted by flow cytometry from the South Pacific Ocean [PDF]
, 2011 The genetic diversity of photosynthetic picoeukaryotes was investigated in the South East Pacific Ocean. Genetic libraries of the plastid 16S rRNA gene were constructed on picoeukaryote populations sorted by flow cytometry, using two different primer ...

Ecology and Evolution, 2021 The Western Ghats (WG) mountain chain in peninsular India is a global biodiversity hotspot, one in which patterns of phylogenetic diversity and endemism remain to be documented across taxa. We used a well‐characterized community of ancient soil predatory

Global decoupling of functional and phylogenetic diversity in plant communities [PDF]
Plant communities are composed of species that differ both in functional traits and evolutionary histories. Understanding how species’ traits and histories interact with the environmental conditions of a site and drive the assembly of ecological ...

Phylogenetic Codivergence Supports Coevolution of Mimetic Heliconius Butterflies [PDF]
, 2012 The unpalatable and warning-patterned butterflies _Heliconius erato_ and _Heliconius melpomene_ provide the best studied example of mutualistic Müllerian mimicry, thought – but rarely demonstrated – to promote coevolution.

Continental scale patterns and predictors of fern richness and phylogenetic diversity
Frontiers in Genetics, 2015 Because ferns have a wide range of habitat preferences and are widely distributed, they are an ideal group for understanding how diversity is distributed.
