An updated inventory of the native vascular plants Mexico records 23,314 species, distributed in 2,854 genera, 297 families, and 73 orders. The flora includes 1,039 species ferns lycophytes, 149 gymnosperms, 22,126 angiosperms. On average, number synonyms per is 1.3 (mode = 1). places as country with fourth largest floristic richness world, although among non-insular countries, by its endemic (about 50%) second only surpassed South Africa. distribution higher taxonomic categories, endemism...
The vascular plants of the Americas Botanical exploration in has a history that stretches back for half millennium, with knowledge assembled diverse regional floras and lists. Ulloa et al. present comprehensive integrated compilation all known native New World plant species (see Perspective by Givnish). This compilation, publicly available, searchable database, includes 124,993 species—about one-third worldwide total. They further details distribution across families genera, geographical...
This dataset provides the Global Naturalized Alien Flora (GloNAF) database, version 1.2. GloNAF represents a data compendium on occurrence and identity of naturalized alien vascular plant taxa across geographic regions (e.g. countries, states, provinces, districts, islands) around globe. The includes 13,939 covers 1,029 (including 381 islands). is based 210 sources. For each taxon-by-region combination, we provide information whether taxon considered to be in specific region (i.e. has...
Secretory canals are distributed among seed plants, and their diversity is concentrated in many families of angiosperms, while other internal secretory structures such as cavities have been identified only Rutaceae, Myrtaceae, Asteraceae. Identifying recognizing these two types has complicated, mainly due to structural similarities. In this study, the ontogeny species Asteraceae described compared, understand differences between them allow establishment more appropriate homology hypotheses....
ABSTRACT A list of 618 species alien flowering plants recorded for Mexico is presented; they are distributed in 355 genera and 87 families. The families with the largest number Poaceae (171), Fabaceae sensu lato (57), Asteraceae (56), Brassicaceae (45). representation most agrees average distribution frequencies estimated by Pysek (1998 ) 26 floras throughout World. Exceptions an under‐representation over‐representation Poaceae. Most (78.9%) have their origin Old World; South America ranks...
Prior to modeling the potential distribution of a species it is recommended carry out analyses reduceerrors in model, especially those caused by spatial autocorrelation presence data or multi-collinearity ofthe environmental predictors used. This paper proposes statistical methods solve drawbacks frequently disregardedwhen such models are built. We use records 3 characteristic Mexican humid mountain forestand 2 sets original variables. The selection presence-only with no was made...
Regional species assemblages have been shaped by colonization, speciation and extinction over millions of years. Humans altered biogeography introducing to new ranges. However, an analysis how strongly naturalized plant (i.e. alien plants that established self-sustaining populations) affect the taxonomic phylogenetic uniqueness regional floras globally is still missing. Here, we present such with data from native in 658 regions around world. We find strong floristic homogenization overall,...
Antecedentes: La familia Asteraceae (o Compositae) en México ha llamado la atención de prominentes botánicos las últimas décadas, por lo que cuenta con una larga tradición investigación su riqueza florística. Se cuenta, tanto, un gran acervo bibliográfico permite hacer síntesis y actualización conocimiento florístico a nivel nacional. Pregunta: ¿Cuál es actualmente conocida México? ¿Cómo se distribuye largo del territorio nacional? ¿Qué géneros o regiones requieren estudios más detallados...
Plant genomes vary greatly in composition and size mainly due to the diversity of repetitive DNAs inherent propensity for their amplification removal from host genome. Most studies addressing repeatome dynamics focus on model organisms, whereas few provide comprehensive investigations across related taxa. Herein, we analyze evolution repeats 13 species
Antecedentes: El mapa de vegetación potencial México, publicado en 1978 por Jerzy Rzedowski, ha sido ampliamente utilizado. Sin embargo, el mismo autor señala algunas debilidades su acerca resolución y precisión. Pregunta: ¿Es posible mejorar la precisión del Rzedowski? Descripción datos: Tipos México. Sitio estudio: Métodos: Empleando como base Uso Suelo Vegetación, serie VII INEGI, se aplicó técnica interpolación conocida ‘polígonos Thiessen’ para asignar a sus polígonos alguno los nueve...
Un recuento actualizado de la riqueza genérica plantas vasculares México incluye 2,804 géneros nativos, distribuidos en 304 familias. Las con flores incluyen el mayor número (2,663), los cuales 2,117 son dicotiledóneas (Magnoliophyta) y 546 monocotiledóneas (Liliopsida). Se registran además 127 helechos afines 14 gimnospermas. proporciona una lista nombres, así como especies que registra cada uno ellos país. También se presenta breve discusión sus principales formas crecimiento, su patrones...
Se presenta una síntesis descriptiva y la clasificación de las asociaciones vegetales encontradas en provincia fitogeográfica del Valle Tehuacán-Cuicatlán, con base criterios fisonómicos estructurales obtenidos a partir muestreos campo 500 m2. Asimismo, se determinó distribución altitudinal diferentes 250 m2, llevados cabo cada 100 m altitud lo largo cinco gradientes ambientales. reconocieron 29 que incluyen nueve dominadas por cactáceas columnares, siete arboladas zonas bajas (cuatro...
Abstract: An important question in conservation biology is the extent to which number of taxonomic supraspecific categories can serve as surrogates species richness. This issue has been little explored highly diverse areas. We used 113 floristic inventories from throughout Mexico, a megadiverse country, evaluate potential higher‐taxon richness for predicting local vascular plants. large biodiversity data set includes main vegetation types found across country. In all, 247 families, 2,398...
