Abstract Annonaceae are a pantropically distributed family found predominantly in rainforests, so they are megathermal taxa, whereas Rhamnaceae are a cosmopolitan family that tend to be found in xeric regions and may be classified as mesothermal. Phylogenetic analyses of these families are presented based on rbcL and trnL–F plastid DNA sequences.

Aim Rain forest-restricted plant families show disjunct distributions between the three major tropical regions: South America, Africa and Asia. Explaining these disjunctions has become an important challenge in biogeography. The pantropical plant family Annonaceae is used to test hypotheses that might explain diversification and distribution patterns in tropical biota: the museum hypothesis (low extinction leading to steady accumulation of species); and dispersal between Africa and Asia via Indian rafting versus boreotropical geodispersal.

Inventories of tropical forests on all continents invariably list Annonaceae as one of the most diverse plant families (Phillips & Miller, 2002). In terms of species richness and abundance of individuals, Annonaceae contributes significantly to the diversity of trees in Neotropical forests (eg Gentry, 1988; Valencia, Balslev & Paz Y Miño, 1994) and lianas and trees in rain forests of the Old World (eg van Gemerden et al., 2003; Slik et al., 2003; Tchouto et al., 2006).

Aim We test biogeographical hypotheses regarding the origin of Andean-centred plant groups by reconstructing phylogeny in the short-branch clade (SBC) of Annonaceae, and estimating the timing of diversifications in four apparently Andean-centred genera: Cremastosperma RE Fr., Klarobelia Chatrou, Malmea RE Fr. and Mosannona Chatrou. The SBC includes species distributed in both the Old and New World tropics.

Wildfire susceptibility maps display the wildfires occurrence probability, ranked from low to high, under a given environmental context. Current studies in this field often rely on expert knowledge, including or not statistical models allowing to assess the cause-effect correlation. Machine learning (ML) algorithms can perform very well and be more generalizable thanks to their capability of learning from and make predictions on data. Italy is highly affected by wildfires due to the high heterogeneity of the territory and to the predisposing meteorological conditions. The main objective of the present study is to elaborate a wildfire susceptibility map for Liguria region (Italy) by applying Random Forest, an ensemble ML algorithm based on decision trees. Susceptibility was assessed by evaluating the probability for an area to burn in the future considering where wildfires occurred in the past and which are the geo-environmental factors that favor their spread. Different models were c...

Resumen. Se propuso el enfoque metodológico de descubrimiento de conocimiento en base de datos (KDD) para identificar y describir actividades que integren sistemas productivos. Se realizó clustering sobre siete variables obtenidas del procesamiento de un relevamiento anual a productores agropecuarios de la región noreste de La Pampa, Argentina. Se encontraron tres grupos que representan los sistemas productivos preponderantes en dicha región: “Mixto con Ciclo Completo con Predominancia Invernada” (25% de la superficie), “Ciclo completo con predominancia Cría” (18% de la superficie) y “Ciclo Completo” (47% de la superficie). Se realizaron cálculos de margen bruto para cada grupo. Se concluye que las técnicas de clustering son herramientas válidas para la identificación y caracterización técnica económica de sistemas productivos preponderantes, para zonas agroecológicas homogéneas y que la disponibilidad de un relevamiento anual permitirá replicar la metodología a toda la provincia de...
