Description
Summary:Plant taxonomy and phylogeny deal with very important problems related to the genetic diversity of populations found in different geographical regions, trying to present the variability of these populations but also to explain their origin. For this reason, such studies examining the conditioned diversity of plant populations were the subject of this Special Issue (SI) of the journal Plants. This SI contains ten original articles and one review article concerning phylogeography and related sciences, i.e., biogeography, taxonomy, and systematics, as well as the genetic variability that lies at the basis of these sciences. The articles included in the SI cover a wide range of topics, including the phylogeny and taxonomy of mosses, taxonomy and hybridization and phylogeny of the genus Chery, genetic diversity and phylogeography of fern, including relict species from the Macronesia area, taxonomy of the genus Aconitum, a species of orchid new to the Romanian flora, but also a proposal for a new phylogeographic division in Gansu Province (China) and a review of the role of the Hercynian Mountains in Shaping Plant Migration Patterns in the Pleistocene.
