Despite fundamental differences in their biology, plants and animals are surprisingly similar in how they have evolved in response to climate, according to a new National Science Foundation-funde...
Upending an evolutionary theory proposed in the 1950s, scientists have found that the groups of animals most resistant to extinction also contain the greatest ecological diversity –- their members per...
