It describes the family?s global diversity and distribution and summarizes recent advances in systematics, evolution, biogeography, reproductive biology and ecology. 410 0$aBiomedical and Life Sciences Series 606 $aBotany 606 $aPlant ecology 606 $aPlants$xReproduction 606 $aPlants$xEvolution 606 $aConservation biology 606 $aEcology 606 $aPlant Science 606 $aPlant Ecology 606 $aPlant Reproduction 606 $aPlant Evolution 606 $aConservation Biology 615 0$aBotany. 615 0$aPlant ecology. 615 0$aPlants$xReproduction. 615 0$aPlants$xEvolution. 615 0$aConservation biology. 615 0$aEcology. 615 14$aPlant Science. 615 24$aPlant Ecology. 615 24$aPlant Reproduction. 615 24$aPlant Evolution. 615 24$aConservation Biology. 676 $a580.14 702 $aMichelangeli$b Fabia?n Armando$f1970- 702 $aGoldenberg$b Renato 702 $aAlmeda$b Frank 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910585769403321 996 $aSystematics, Evolution, and Ecology of Melastomataceae$92902770 997 $aUNINA
