Should the relationship between leaf margin and temperature be re‐defined for areas with colder climates? (2024)
Journal Article
Iszkuło, G., Tyrała‐Wierucka, Ż., Thomas, P. A., Terlecka, M., Walas, Ł., & Tomaszewski, D. (in press). Should the relationship between leaf margin and temperature be re‐defined for areas with colder climates?. Journal of Biogeography, https://doi.org/10.1111/jbi.14855

Aim The well-proven positive correlation between the increased proportion of entire-leaved woody dicotyledonous species and increased mean annual temperature has been commonly used to estimate temperature in the past. However, in regions of colder c... Read More about Should the relationship between leaf margin and temperature be re‐defined for areas with colder climates?.

Evolutionary history of Castanea sativa in the Caucasus driven by Middle and Late Pleistocene paleoenvironmental changes (2023)
Journal Article
Beridze, B., Sękiewicz, K., Walas, Ł., Thomas, P. A., Danelia, I., Kvartskhava, G., …Dering, M. (2023). Evolutionary history of Castanea sativa in the Caucasus driven by Middle and Late Pleistocene paleoenvironmental changes. AoB PLANTS, 15(5), https://doi.org/10.1093/aobpla/plad059

Due to global climate cooling and aridification since the Paleogene, members of the Neogene flora were extirpated from the Northern Hemisphere or were confined to a few refugial areas. For some species, the final reduction/extinction came in the Plei...
