Biodiversity Conservation and Phylogenetic Systematics Preserving our evolutionary heritage in an extinction crisis /
Phylogenetic diversity is now a key concept for biodiversity conservation due to its link to option value, evolutionary potential and to the possibility of guiding conservation across scales. Present facilities for obtaining molecular sequences and metagenomes are powering this research field, rende...
