Continental‐scale assembly of floras results from past and present in situ diversification in
association with several external processes. Among these processes are the making and …

The megadiverse genus Carex (c. 2000 species, Cyperaceae) has a nearly cosmopolitan
distribution, displaying an inverted latitudinal richness gradient with higher species diversity …

Bipolar disjunct distributions are a fascinating biogeographic pattern exhibited by about 30
vascular plants, whose populations reach very high latitudes in the northern and southern …

PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Historical patterns and processes of plants with an American
amphitropical disjunct (AAD) distribution have long interested botanists and …

Quaternary glaciations have played a major role in sha** the genetic diversity and
distribution of plant species. Strong palaeoecological and genetic evidence supports a …

Abstract Changes in holocentric chromosome number due to fission and fusion have direct
and immediate effects on genome structure and recombination rates. These, in turn, may …

Abstract Aim The Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) remains an enigmatic period in southeast
Australia due to the limited spatial and temporal resolution of its palaeoclimatic records. A …

PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Bipolar species represent the greatest biogeographical
disjunction on Earth, raising many questions about the colonization and adaptive processes …

Here, we review progress and prospects to explicitly test for long distance dispersal
biogeographic events. Long distance dispersal represents a “jump” across some kind of …

The knowledge of the genus Carex L.(Cyperaceae) in South America is scattered, without
recent comprehensive treatments for any country. Within the continent, Chile is the country …
