A well-resolved phylogeny of the trees of Puerto Rico based on DNA barcode sequence data.
The use of phylogenetic information in community ecology and conservation has grown in recent years. Two key issues for community phylogenetics studies, however, are (i) low terminal phylogenetic resolution and (ii) arbitrarily defined species pools.We used three DNA barcodes (plastid DNA regions rb...
