Phylogeography of the cactophilic species Drosophila gouveai: demographic events and divergence timing in dry vegetation enclaves in eastern Brazil
(WILEY-BLACKWELL PUBLISHING, INC, 2009)
Aim The aim of this study was to assess the causal mechanisms underlying populational subdivision in Drosophila gouveai, a cactophilic species associated with xeric vegetation enclaves in eastern Brazil. A secondary aim ...
The role of the Southern Hemisphere in the evolutionary history of Apiaceae, a mostly north temperate plant family
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2016-02-16)
Aim: To estimate the most likely pathways of expansion of the first diverging lineages of the angiosperm family Apiaceae across the Southern Hemisphere and to Eurasia by reconstructing the biogeographical history of the ...
Species tree phylogeny, character evolution, and biogeography of the patagonian genus Anarthrophyllum Benth. (Fabaceae)
(Springer Heidelberg, 2018-03)
Geologic events promoting the aridization of southern South America contributed to lineage divergences and species differentiation through geographic (allopatric divergence) and biotic and abiotic factors (ecological ...
Comparative genomics uncovers unique gene turnover and evolutionary rates in a gene family involved in the detection of insect cuticular pheromones
(Oxford University Press, 2016-07)
Chemoreception is an essential process for the survival and reproduction of animals. Many of the proteins responsible for recognizing and transmitting chemical stimuli in insects are encoded by genes that are members of ...
Major lineages of Loasaceae subfam. Loasoideae diversified during the Andean uplift
(Academic Press, 2019)
The Loasoideae is the largest clade in the Loasaceae. This subfamily is widespread throughout the Neotropics and centered in the Andes, presenting an excellent opportunity to study diversification across much of temperate ...
Genetic structure, phylogeny, and biogeography of Brazilian eyelid-less lizards of genera Calyptommatus and Nothobachia (Squamata, Gymnophthalmidae) as inferred from mitochondrial DNA sequences
(ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2010)
Calyptommatus and Nothobachia genera of gymnophthalmid lizards are restricted to sandy open habitats on Sao Francisco River margins, northeastern Brazil. Phylogenetic relationships and geographic distribution of the four ...
Long-term endemism of two highly divergent lineages of the amphibian-killing fungus in the Atlantic Forest of Brazil
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014-02-01)
The recent global spread of the amphibian-killing fungus [Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd)] has been closely tied to anthropogenic activities; however, regional patterns of spread are not completely understood. Using ...
Phylogenomic dating and Bayesian biogeography illuminate an antitropical pattern for eucerine bees
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2022-04-05)
Aim An antitropical pattern is characterized by the occurrence of closely related taxa south and north of the tropics but absent or uncommonly represented closer to the equator, in contrast to most taxa, which tend to have ...
