Marginal habitats, previously thought to be subsets of the rain forest, have distinct evolutionary paths, challenging our understanding of the Atlantic Forest's diversity.

Range expansion of Galinsoga quadriradiata into the mountains of China
Can shifts in trait values among populations of an invasive plant help assess invasion risks and predict future spread?

Non-native plant species climb mountains in a different way to native species
One way invasive species spread through an area is by harnessing variability in traits, but this doesn’t match observations of invasive species on the slopes of Mount Teide.
Population-level plasticity drives plant trait variation along elevation
Within a species, plant traits may vary substantially along environmental gradients. However, is such variation (1) consistent across locations and (2) genetic or non-genetic (i.e., plastic) in nature? In a recent...
