Geographic structure in two highly diverse lineages of Tillandsia (Bromeliaceae) [PDF]

, 2017
The Neotropical genus Tillandsia (Bromeliaceae) is an excellent model system for macroevolutionary and biogeographic studies owing to its remarkable species diversity (ca.

Endemism Centres of the Five Richest Vascular Epiphyte Families in the Neotropics

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 1, Page 80-91, January 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Endemic species, characterised by limited geographic ranges, face a high risk of extinction. The neotropical region harbours diverse ecosystems and a substantial number of endemic species, thus identifying areas of high endemism is crucial for protecting unique and threatened species and ecosystems.

The ghost of climatic change in the geographic distribution of Tillandsia aeranthos (Bromeliaceae) [PDF]

, 2020
The geographic distribution of Tillandsia aeranthos is updated with new records. Its southern limit is extended 200 kilometers in a zone previously studied by many botanists and naturalists, and also in poorly-explored areas.

Potential bottom‐up control of Metamasius callizona in Florida, USA

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 172, Issue 5, Page 409-421, May 2024.
Tillandsia utriculata (Bromeliaceae), a native bromeliad in Florida, USA, is in danger of being extirpated by an invasive bromeliad‐eating weevil, Metamasius callizona (Coleoptera: Curculionidae). A population of T. utriculata was found in Belize that co‐exists with M. callizona.

Expansions and contractions of the inverted repeat, as well as gene loss and potential pseudogenization shape plastome evolution in Hechtioideae (Bromeliaceae, Poales)

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 421-437, May 2024.
Analysis of complete plastome sequences obtained by whole‐genome sequencing improved statistical support across different phylogenetic depths in Hechtioideae and allowed the identification of highly informative loci previously unexplored in this lineage.

Spatiotemporal Variation on Fertility, Mating System, and Gene Flow in Vriesea gigantea (Bromeliaceae), an Atlantic Forest Species

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2022
Knowledge of the patterns of variation in plant mating systems and fitness, in the context of conservation biology, is essential for understanding microscale differences and their probable causes.

Nuclear phylogenomics of angiosperms and insights into their relationships and evolution

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 66, Issue 3, Page 546-578, March 2024.
This review synthesizes numerous nuclear phylogenomic analyses of angiosperms (analyses that resolved the relationships of major clades, most orders, and many families and subgroups) and discusses the improved understanding of angiosperm biogeography, diversification dynamics, and character evolution.

Genetic relationships and variation in reproductive strategies in four closely related bromeliads adapted to neotropical ‘inselbergs': Alcantarea glaziouana, A. regina, A. geniculata and A. imperialis (Bromeliaceae) [PDF]

, 2017
Background and Aims Bromeliads (Bromeliaceae) adapted to rock outcrops or ‘inselbergs' in neotropical rain forests have been identified as suitable plant models for studying population divergence and speciation during continental plant radiations. Little
