An arctic community of symbiotic fungi assembled by long‐distance dispersers: phylogenetic diversity of ectomycorrhizal basidiomycetes in Svalbard based on soil and sporocarp DNA (2012, background): “It is very likely that many arctic fungi, particularly the widespread taxa with circumpolar distributions, have been selected for mobility during the glacial cycles, as has been suggested for plants (Brochmann & Brysting, 2008).”
The Late-Quaternary history of arctic and alpine plants (2008, background): “Sometimes morphological species complexes, often showing variation in ploidy level, have developed through the processes of mixing and isolation, especially in unglaciated Beringia (Brochmann and Brysting 2008 ).”
Ecological implications of Cousinia Cass. (Asteraceae) persistence through the last two glacial–interglacial cycles in the continental Middle East for the Irano-Turanian flora (2012, background): “…environments suggesting a link between climate and diversification (Richardson et al., 2001; von Hagen and Kadereit, 2001; Kadereit and Comes, 2004; Hughes and Eastwood, 2006; Zhang et al., 2007; Brochmann and Brysting, 2008; Bittkau and Comes, 2009; Janssens et al., 2009; Valente et al., 2010).”
Land ahead: using genome scans to identify molecular markers of adaptive relevance (2008, background): “2007 ; Brochmann and Brysting 2008 ) as well as current dispersal at small spatial scales in alpine plants (Raffl et al.”
