Odd man out: why are there fewer plant species in African rain forests? (2014, methodology): “…phylogeny of palms in combination with accurate knowledge of generic diversity, and using a clade specific diversification model (Alfaro et al. 2009; Morlon 2014), Baker and Couvreur (2013b) inferred that none of the African palm lineages underwent a significant decrease in diversification rates.”
Grass diversification in Madagascar: In situ radiation of two large C3 shade clades and support for a Miocene to Pliocene origin of C4 grassy biomes (2018, result): “It is consistent with the estimated ages of other forest plant lineages in the region such as the palm tribe Areceae (Baker & Couvreur, 2013), scaly tree ferns (Janssen et al., 2008) or Canarium (Federman et al., 2015).”
