Rapid climate change results in long-lasting spatial homogenization of phylogenetic diversity
Nature Communications, 2020 Scientific understanding of biodiversity dynamics, resulting from past climate oscillations and projections of future changes in biodiversity, has advanced over the past decade.

The phylogenetic diversity of eukaryotic transcription [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 2003 Eukaryotic transcription is a highly regulated process involving interactions between large numbers of proteins. To analyse the phylogenetic distribution of the components of this process, six crown eukaryote group genomes were queried with a reference set of transcription-associated (TA) proteins.

Microbial responses to changes in land use [PDF]
, 2011 Background/Question/Methods Land use change is one of the greatest threats to biodiversity worldwide. This is especially true for land use change that results in the destruction of intact forest, or "deforestation”.

Tree phylogenetic diversity structures multitrophic communities
Functional Ecology, 2020 1. Plant diversity begets diversity at other trophic levels. While species richness is the most commonly used measure for plant diversity, the number of evolutionary lineages (i.e.

The Shapley Value of Phylogenetic Trees [PDF]
, 2007 Every weighted tree corresponds naturally to a cooperative game that we call a "tree game"; it assigns to each subset of leaves the sum of the weights of the minimal subtree spanned by those leaves.

Global conservation of phylogenetic diversity captures more than just functional diversity
Nature Communications, 2019 The biodiversity measure, phylogenetic diversity (PD), links evolutionary history to the conservation of feature-diversity (broadly, the different evolutionary features of species), and so to future options for humanity (option value)1.

Phylogenetic diversity of Mesorhizobium in chickpea [PDF]
Journal of Biosciences, 2014 Crop domestication, in general, has reduced genetic diversity in cultivated gene pool of chickpea (Cicer arietinum) as compared with wild species (C. reticulatum, C. bijugum). To explore impact of domestication on symbiosis, 10 accessions of chickpeas, including 4 accessions of C. arietinum, and 3 accessions of each of C. reticulatum and C.

Floristic response to urbanization: Filtering of the bioregional flora in Indianapolis, Indiana, USA [PDF]
, 2017 PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Globally, urban plant populations are becoming increasingly important, as these plants play a vital role in ameliorating effects of ecosystem disturbance and climate change.
