300 billion years of angiosperm evolution at risk of extinction

2025-04-30

Abstract excerpt

Extinction results in not only loss of species, but also loss of the unique evolutionary history that they represent and the irreplaceable features they exhibit. There is broad consensus regarding the necessity to optimise the preservation of the tree of life by including evolutionary information in conservation prioritisation, a notion also endorsed by major policy frameworks 1–4 . However, evolutionarily-inform...
