Conservation Priority Areas Based on Phylogenetic Diversity Are Sensitive to Methods of Phylogenetic Inference and Divergence Time Estimation

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Protecting phylogenetic diversity (PD) has been advocated as a basis for spatial conservation planning. However, phylogenetic branch lengths can vary substantially depending on methodological choices made during the inference of phylogeny and divergence times, and little is known about the sensitivity of spatial patterns of PD to these ...

Fire-adapted Gondwanan Angiosperm floras evolved in the Cretaceous

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2012
Background Fires have been widespread over the last 250 million years, peaking 60−125 million years ago (Ma), and might therefore have played a key role in the evolution of Angiosperms.

Guidelines to identify and quantify biodiversity co‐benefits of carbon plantings

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 1, January–March 2026.
Carbon plantings play a key role in climate change mitigation and can deliver significant biodiversity co‐benefits when designed to reflect local ecosystems using diverse native species. Although interest in biodiversity co‐benefits is growing due to emerging markets, policies and Nature Positive goals, practitioners face uncertainty because ...

Rates of molecular evolution and diversification in plants: chloroplast substitution rates correlate with species-richness in the Proteaceae

, 2015
BACKGROUND Many factors have been identified as correlates of the rate of molecular evolution, such as body size and generation length. Analysis of many molecular phylogenies has also revealed correlations between substitution rates and clade size ...

Managing coextinction of insects in a changing climate [PDF]

Approximately a quarter of global terrestrial biodiversity is represented by plant dwelling insects and the potential for thousands of species to be extinguished through widespread disturbances such as a changing climate is high. From a large database of
