Fighting their last stand? A global analysis of the distribution and conservation status of gymnosperms [PDF]
Aim: Gymnosperms are often described as a marginal and threatened group, members of which tend to be out-competed by angiosperms and which therefore preferentially persist at higher latitudes and elevations.
