Based on our morphological observation, we proposed two new Sedum species in Taiwan.
Sedum kwanwuense sp. nov. resembles S. morrisonense. However, it differs from the latter …

Biodiversity is not evenly distributed among related groups, raising questions about the
factors contributing to such disparities. The sunflower family (Asteraceae,> 26,000 species) …

Background A large number of taxa have undergone evolutionary radiations in mountainous
areas, rendering alpine systems particularly suitable to study the extrinsic and intrinsic …

While most of the species in Goodeniaceae family, excluding the Scaevola genus, are
endemic to Australasia, S. taccada and S. hainanensis have expanded their distribution …

Abstract Subsect. Hirculoideae Engl. & Irmsch., belonging to Saxifraga sect. Ciliatae Haw.,
has high species richness. It can be divided into S. diversifolia, S. pseudohirculus, and S …

Background Tetrastigma hemsleyanum is of great medicinal importance and used as a
model system to address the evolutionary history of warm-temperate evergreen (WTE) forest …

Background Accurate species delimitation is fundamental for testing evolutionary theory and
provides essential implications for conservation management. The arctic-alpine genus …

Plants on serpentine soils provide extreme examples of adaptation to environment, and thus
offer excellent models for the study of evolution at the molecular and genomic level …

Climate change and geological events have long been known to shape biodiversity,
implying that these can likewise be viewed from a biological perspective. To study whether …

Patterns of diversification in Neotropical plants have been studied intensively over the past
decades. Most studies have focused on groups that migrated to and radiated into the …
