The S outh A merican continent is composed of several biogeographical regions harbouring
the highest biodiversity on the globe, encompassing five of the world's biodiversity 'hot …

Phylogeographic studies have merged different disciplines to explain speciation processes
at both spatial and time scales. Although the number of phylogeographic extant studies has …

In this study, we evaluate phylogeographic patterns and predictions of ecological niche
modelling (ENM) for Eugenia uniflora (Myrtaceae), a widely distributed taxon in the Atlantic …

Despite the high diversity of the Southern South American environments, the patterns and
processes driving both their species diversity and demographic history are still poorly known …

Phylogeographic studies provide an important framework for investigating the mechanisms
operating during the earliest stages of speciation, as reproductive barriers can be examined …

Genetic analysis provides a robust method for understanding the ways in which human
interventions in ecosystems may affect genetic diversity and species survival, providing an …

Aim To examine the phylogeography of Ficus insipida subsp. insipida in order to investigate
patterns of spatial genetic structure across the Neotropics and within Amazonia. Location …

Various historical processes have been put forth as drivers of patterns in the spatial
distribution of Amazonian trees and their population genetic variation. We tested whether …

The jewel orchids (Goodyerinae), named after their often colourful leaves, have a
pantropical distribution with a clear Asian centre of diversity. However, the Nearctic and …

The intraspecific evolutionary history of South American xerophytic plant species has been
poorly explored. The tree species Prosopis chilensis has a disjunct distribution in four South …
