     View Summary

    Yasuhiro Kubota receives the Award for the paper Kubota, Y., Kusumoto, B., Shiono, T., & Ulrich, W. (2018). Environmental filters shaping angiosperm tree assembly along climatic and geographic gradients. Journal of Vegetation Science, 29, 607–618. This study is an excellent example of using fine-scale plant community data from forest vegetation plots sampled on different continents to address macroecological questions about the evolution of the global phylogenetic diversity of angiosperm floras. Using a global dataset of forest plots, Kubota et al. convincingly demonstrated that phylogenetic clustering of angiosperm trees is stronger in those regions of the world that are currently drier and experienced a larger climatic change during the Quaternary. This study significantly contributes to our understanding of global diversity patterns, including the differences between tropical and extratropical diversity.
