A biogeographic perspective on the evolution of fire syndromes in pine trees ( Pinus : Pinaceae)
Our goals were to explore the relationship between biogeography and the evolution of fire-adaptive syndromes in the genus Pinus . We used a previously published time-calibrated phylogeny and conducted ancestral trait reconstruction to estimate the likely timing of diversification in Pinus , and to d...

Our goals were to explore the relationship between biogeography and the evolution of fire-adaptive syndromes in the genus Pinus . We used a previously published time-calibrated phylogeny and conducted ancestral trait reconstruction to estimate the likely timing of diversification in Pinus , and to determine when fire-adaptive syndromes evolved in the lineage. To explore trait conservation among fire syndromes and to investigate historical biogeography, we constructed ancestral state reconstructions using the program RASP and estimated the degree of conservatism for fire-adapted traits in the program BaTS.
