Several vegetation belts stretch continuously from Europe to Asia, taiga and steppe being most prominent. Numerous plant species within these belts share a conspicuous distribution area, which is longitudinally contracted or disrupted approximately along longitude 70° E. To date no hypothesis for this intriguing distribution pattern has been put forward. We detected molecular footprints in the contemporary genetic composition in nuclear DNA (ITS1, ITS2) and chloroplast DNA (trnL–trnF spacer…

Pleistocene dynamics of the Eurasian steppe as a driving force of evolution: Phylogenetic history of the genus Capsella (Brassicaceae)
TLDR
It is shown that the continuous displacement and disruption of the Eurasian steppe belt during the Pleistocene was the driving force in the evolution of Capsella.
Allopatric divergence and secondary contacts in Euphorbia spinosa L: Influence of climatic changes on the split of the species
TLDR
Molecular data support the hypothesis of a long-term separation of the Northwestern (Maritime Alps, Sardinia, Corsica, Northern Apennines) and Southeastern (Southern Apennine and Balkan area) lineages in glacial refugia and the existence of allopatrically fragmented lineages is most probably the result of isolation in different glacialRefugia.
History and evolution of alpine plants endemic to the Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau: Aconitum gymnandrum (Ranunculaceae)
TLDR
A survey of chloroplast DNA and nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) DNA variation aimed at exploring the phylogeographical history of the QTP alpine endemic Aconitum gymnandrum suggests that at least some of these cold‐tolerant species may have also survived centrally on theQTP platform throughout the Quaternary.
Genetic patterns reflecting Pleistocene range dynamics in the annual calcicole plant Microthlaspi erraticum across its Eurasian range
The phylogeographical history of the Iberian steppe plant Ferula loscosii (Apiaceae): a test of the abundant‐centre hypothesis
TLDR
Phylogeographical analysis suggests that F. loscosii likely originated in southern Spain and then migrated towards the central and northeastern ranges, further supporting a Late Miocene southern‐bound Mediterranean migratory way for its oriental steppe ancestors.
Dated phylogenies and historical biogeography of Dontostemon and Clausia (Brassicaceae) mirror the palaeogeographical history of the Eurasian steppe
TLDR
Dated phylogenies and historical biogeography of Clausia and Dontostemon mirror the climate/landscape dynamics of the steppe from its origin in the early Miocene up to the Pleistocene and Holocene.
Dated phylogeny and biogeography of the Eurasian Allium section Rhizirideum (Amaryllidaceae)
TLDR
Dated phylogenies revealed that diversification started in the upper Pliocene and further speciation events occurred during the Pleistocene, and a clear division of the section Rhizirideum into an “Asiatic” and “European” geographical group.
Molecular evidence in Diplotaxis (Brassicaceae) suggests a Quaternary origin of the Cape Verdean flora
TLDR
Analyzing three molecular markers from the nuclear and chloroplast genome, it is provided evidence that the Cape Verdean endemic Diplotaxis originated from North African D. harra populations in Pleistocene times, putatively linked to the genesis of the (western) Sahara.
Molecules and migration: biogeographical studies in cruciferous plants
TLDR
An overview on the various biogeographic and phylogeographic studies using various molecular markers and methodological approaches to analyse them is presented, concentrating on studies done with representatives of the Brassicaceae family.

Phylogeny and quaternary history of the European montane/alpine endemic Soldanella (Primulaceae) based on ITS and AFLP variation.
TLDR
Estimates of divergence times suggest a late Quaternary origin of the genus Soldanella, and it is hypothesized that the latter differentiated in allopatric regions of expansion during glacials, while the former experienced secondary contact at lower elevations in more southern refugia.

Holarctic phylogeography of the root vole (Microtus oeconomus): implications for late Quaternary biogeography of high latitudes
A species‐wide phylogeographical study of the root vole (Microtus oeconomus) was performed using the whole 1140 base pair mitochondrial (mt) cytochrome b gene. We examined 83 specimens from 52…
Post-glacial re-colonization of European biota
TLDR
A reduction in diversity from southern to northern Europe in the extent of allelic variation and species subdivision is seen; this is attributed to rapid expansion northward and the varied topography of southern refugia allowing populations to diverge through several ice ages.
Recent hybrid speciation in Cardamine (Brassicaceae) – conversion of nuclear ribosomal ITS sequences in statu nascendi
TLDR
The ITS sequencing of the two parent species and the alloploid offspring suggests a synopsis of the types of ITS evolution, reported so far in the literature, and suggests rapid genomic change in newly formed alloploids.
Comparative phylogeography and postglacial colonization routes in Europe
TLDR
A Brooks parsimony analysis produced an unrooted area phylogram, showing that: (i) the northern regions were colonized generally from the Iberic and Balkanic refugia; and (ii) the Italian lineages were often isolated due to the presence of the Alpine barrier.
Mitochondrial DNA variation and the evolutionary history of chromosome races of collared lemmings (Dicrostonyx) in the Eurasian Arctic
TLDR
There is congruence between phylogeographical pattern of mtDNA variation and geographical distribution of chromosome races; 69% of the total mt DNA variation is allocated among chromosome races, implying that historical events such as fragmentation and allopatric bottleneck events have been important for the origin of chromosome Races.
Last glacial maximum biomes reconstructed from pollen and plant macrofossil data from northern Eurasia
Pollen and plant macrofossil data from northern Eurasia were used to reconstruct the vegetation of the last glacial maximum (LGM: 18,000 ± 2000 14C yr bp) using an objective quantitative method for…
Molecular evidence for bicontinental hybridogenous genomic constitution in Lepidium sensu stricto (Brassicaceae) species from Australia and New Zealand.
TLDR
Low levels of cpDNA and ITS sequence divergence and unresolved topologies within Australian/New Zealand species suggest a rapid and recent radiation of Lepidium after the hybridization event, which coincides with dramatic climatic changes in that geological epoch shaping the composition of the vegetation.

TLDR
The origins and development of the study of speciation, hybrid zones and phylogeography are outlined using evolutionary iconography, and a ‘tree of trees’ summarizes this growth and current vitality.
