Understanding the mechanisms controlling community diversity, functions, succession, and
biogeography is a central, but poorly understood, topic in ecology, particularly in microbial …

The hundreds of cichlid fish species in Lake Malawi constitute the most extensive recent
vertebrate adaptive radiation. Here we characterize its genomic diversity by sequencing 134 …

Biodiversity on marine islands is characterized by unique biogeographic, phylogenetic and
functional characteristics. Islands hold a disproportionate amount of the world's biodiversity …

An obstacle to the use of graphene as an alternative to silicon electronics has been the
absence of an energy gap between its conduction and valence bands, which makes it …

Phylogeography is a discipline concerned with various relationships between gene
genealogies—phylogenetics—and geography. The word “phylogeography” was coined in …

▪ Abstract As better phylogenetic hypotheses become available for many groups of
organisms, studies in community ecology can be informed by knowledge of the evolutionary …

The increasing availability of phylogenetic data, computing power and informatics tools has
facilitated a rapid expansion of studies that apply phylogenetic data and methods to …

Adaptive radiation is the evolution of diversity within a rapidly multiplying lineage. It can
