Transverse alpine speciation driven by glaciation
The allopatric model of biological speciation involves fracturing of a pre-existing species
distribution and subsequent genetic divergence in isolation. Accumulating global evidence …

Plant speciation in the face of recurrent climate changes in the Alps
C Parisod - Alpine Botany, 2022 - Springer
The main, continuous mountain range of the European Alpine System (ie, the Alps) hosts a
diversified pool of species whose evolution has long been investigated. The legacy of past …

Pleistocene glacial cycles drive isolation, gene flow and speciation in the high‐elevation Andes
Mountain ranges are amongst the most species‐rich habitats, with many large and rapid
evolutionary radiations. The tempo and mode of diversification in these systems are key …
