    • Flora of the hot deserts: emerging patterns from phylogeny-based diversity studies 
      Scherson Vicencio, Rosa; Luebert Bruron, Federico; Pliscoff, Patricio; Fuentes Castillo, Taryn (Wiley, 2020)
      Relatively recent increases in molecular and geographic data for many taxa in different areas of the world have provided scientists with tools to evaluate biodiversity using evolutionary or phylogeny-based indices (reviewed ...
    • Spatial phylogenetics of the native woody plant species in Hainan, China 
      Zhu, Zhi-Xin; Harris, A. J.; Nizamani, Mir Muhammad; Thornhill, Andrew H.; Scherson Vicencio, Rosa; Wang, Hua-Feng (Wiley, 2021)
      To better identify biodiversity hotspots for conservation on Hainan Island, a tropical island in southern China, we assessed spatial variation in phylogenetic diversity and species richness using 18,976 georeferenced ...
    • Spatial phylogenetics of the vascular flora of Chile 
      Scherson Vicencio, Rosa; Thornhill, Andrew H.; Urbina Casanova, Rafael; Freyman, William A.; Pliscoff, Patricio; Mishler, Brent D. (Elsevier, 2017)
      Current geographic patterns of biodiversity are a consequence of the evolutionary history of the lineages that comprise them. This study was aimed at exploring how evolutionary features of the vascular flora of Chile are ...
