Repeated upslope biome shifts in Saxifraga during late-Cenozoic climate cooling.
Mountains are among the most biodiverse places on Earth, and plant lineages that inhabit them have some of the highest speciation rates ever recorded. Plant diversity within the alpine zone - the elevation above which trees cannot grow—contributes significantly to overall diversity within mountain systems, but the origins of alpine... -

The genome sequence of spotted medick, Medicago arabica (L.) Huds. (Fabaceae).
We present a genome assembly from an individual (the spotted medick; Tracheophyta; Magnoliopsida; Fabales; Fabaceae). The genome sequence is 515.5 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 8 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial and plastid genome assemblies have lengths of 324.47 kilobases and 125.07 kilobases in length, respectively.Christenhusz, Maarten J.

From earthquakes to island area: multi‐scale effects upon local diversity.
Tropical forests occupy small coral atolls to the vast Amazon basin. They occur across bioregions with different geological and climatic history. Differences in area and bioregional history shape species immigration, extinction and diversification. How this effects local diversity is unclear. The Indonesian archipelago hosts thousands of tree species whose coexistence... -

Coccoloba-associated xerocomoid boletes (Boletaceae) from the Caribbean and Mexico: Tropicoboletus ruborculus gen. et comb. nov., revision of Xerocomus coccolobae, phylogenetic assessment of Singerocomus guadelupae comb. nov., and type studies of Xerocomus caeruleonigrescens, X. cuneipes, and X. pseudoboletinus var. pini-caribaeae.
Only two -associated xerocomoid boletes with smooth basidiospores are currently known from the Dominican Republic, namely and . A multilocus phylogenetic analysis of four gene markers (ITS, LSU, , ) reveals that . forms an autonomous clade in the corresponding to a novel genus, which is introduced here as gen....Gelardi, Matteo ; Angelini, Claudio ; Biketova, Alona Yu. ; Suz, Laura M. ; Ercole, Enrico …

Revised taxon definition in European Cortinarius subgenus Dermocybe based on phylogeny, chemotaxonomy, and morphology.
(Fr.) Fr. is one of the most species-rich genera in the ( ). subgen. (Fr.) Trog includes brightly coloured Cortinarii with anthraquinone pigments. The chemotaxonomic approach has always been as important as classical methods for species definition of and helped to improve overall species concepts. However, some species concepts within... -
