Global beta-diversity of angiosperm trees is shaped by Quaternary climate change.
As Earth’s climate has varied strongly through geological time, studying the impacts of past climate change on biodiversity helps to understand the risks from future climate change. However, it remains unclear how paleoclimate shapes spatial variation in biodiversity. Here, we assessed the influence of Quaternary climate change on spatial dissimilarity...Xu, Wu-Bing ; Guo, Wen-Yong ; Serra-Diaz, Josep M. ; Schrodt, Franziska ; Eiserhardt, Wolf L. …

The Implications of Incongruence between Gene Tree and Species Tree Topologies for Divergence Time Estimation.
Phylogenetic analyses are increasingly being performed with data sets that incorporate hundreds of loci. Due to incomplete lineage sorting, hybridization, and horizontal gene transfer, the gene trees for these loci may often have topologies that differ from each other and from the species tree. The effect of these topological incongruences...Carruthers, Tom ; Sun, Miao ; Baker, William J. ; Smith, Stephen A. ; de Vos, Jurriaan M. …
