The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Neotropical Plant Evolution: Assembling the Big Picture (2013, background): “…– the SDTF biome may only be open to immigration by lineages that already have drought adaptations allowing them to survive a seasonal environment (Schrire et al., 2005; Pennington et al., 2009), adaptations which are lacking in species from adjacent biomes that experience non-seasonal climates…”
On the origin of southern African subtropical thicket vegetation (2005, background): “It has been suggested that in the Fabaceae, semi-arid thicket environments were of great importance in early lineage diversification, northern temperate, savanna and rainforest lineages having xeric ancestors, as shown for several world regions (Schrire et al. 2005).”
Reconstructing the deep-branching relationships of the papilionoid legumes (2013, unknown): “& Wiersema, all with a strong ecological predilection to lowland rain forests (Ireland, 2005; Schrire et al., 2005; Torke and Schaal, 2008).”
Recent assembly of the Cerrado, a neotropical plant diversity hotspot, by in situ evolution of adaptations to fire (2009, background): “Similarly, many seasonally dry tropical forest clades show evidence of phylogenetic niche conservatism among disjunct areas across the tropics (16, 18).”
