Phylogenetic structure and formation mechanism of shrub communities in arid and semiarid areas of the Mongolian Plateau. [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2019
Limiting similarity rather than habitat filtering is the main mechanism of community composition in temperate arid and semiarid areas desert. Low temperature is the main factor limiting shrub phylogeny distribution. Abstract The mechanisms of species coexistence within a community have always been the focus in ecological research.

New Insights on Genetic and Morphological Divergence Among a <i>Buthus</i> Species Complex From Tunisia With the Identification of a New Species. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This work presents a revision of Tunisian species within the genus Buthus. By combining molecular and morphological analyses, we describe a new species and we better define the distribution area of all the recorded species and provide new morphological criteria that facilitate their identification and differentiation.

Cenozoic migration of a desert plant lineage across the North Atlantic

New Phytologist, Volume 238, Issue 6, Page 2668-2684, June 2023., 2023
Summary Previous paleobotanical work concluded that Paleogene elements of the sclerophyllous subhumid vegetation of western Eurasia and western North America were endemic to these disjunct regions, suggesting that the southern areas of the Holarctic flora were isolated at that time.

The South Asian monsoon maintains the disjunction of Rumex hastatus between the western Himalayas and the Hengduan Mountains, southwest China

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2022, Issue 11, November 2022., 2022
The Himalayas and the Hengduan Mountains of southwest China are hotspots of both climatic and species diversity. Yet, the distribution patterns of semi‐arid plant communities that have arisen throughout the region's complex uplift history remain insufficiently understood.

The Miocene: The Future of the Past

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 36, Issue 4, April 2021., 2021
Abstract The Miocene epoch (23.03–5.33 Ma) was a time interval of global warmth, relative to today. Continental configurations and mountain topography transitioned toward modern conditions, and many flora and fauna evolved into the same taxa that exist today.
