Evolution: Biodiversity in the Anthropocene

Curr Biol. 2019 Sep 9;29(17):R831-R833. doi: 10.1016/j.cub.2019.07.073.

Abstract

Human influences are reshaping plant communities around the world through both extinctions and species gains. New work relating biodiversity shifts to rapid changes in climate and land use highlights the need for new biogeographic frameworks to understand evolutionary change in the Anthropocene.
