A hundred pollen and plant macrofossil records from the Iberian Peninsula, Southern
France, the Italian Peninsula, Greece and the Aegean, and the southwestern Black Sea area …

An increasing body of palaeobotanical data demonstrates a series of Pliocene and
Pleistocene extirpations and extinctions of plant lineages in western Eurasia, which are …

Phylogenetic relationships among 108 oak species (genus Quercus L.) were inferred using
DNA sequences of six nuclear genes selected from the existing genomic resources of the …

Aim Many subtropical organisms exhibit an East Asian‐Tethyan disjunction, a distribution
split between East Asia and the Mediterranean. The underlying mechanisms and timing …

Nucleotide sequences from the plastome are currently the main source for assessing
taxonomic and phylogenetic relationships in flowering plants and their historical …

Available knowledge on the European white oaks (Quercus, sect. Quercus) plastome still
exhibits large gaps, mostly in respect of detailed phylogeny and information from southern …

In the last 46 years extensive effort has been devoted to the botanical identification of pollen
grains from Neogene deposits. This robust approach is the only reliable way to reconstruct …

Aim The aim of this study is to model the past, current, and future distribution of J. phoenicea
ss, J. turbinata, and J. canariensis, based on bioclimatic variables using a maximum entropy …

The evolution of plant ecosystems during the Cenophytic was complex and influenced by
both abiotic and biotic factors. Among abiotic forces were tectonics, the distribution of …

Abstract During the Messinian (7.24–5.33 Ma), the highly dynamic Mediterranean
environment was concomitantly governed by global climate changes and regional tectonic …
