Fig. 4: Variation in genus age and net diversification rate as a function of annual temperature and precipitation, and in generic diversity as a finction of genus age and net diversification.

Variation in mean genus age (A, B) and mean net diversification rate (C, D) per geographic unit as a function of mean annual temperature and mean annual precipitation. Variation in the log-transformed generic diversity as a function of mean genus age (E) and mean net diversification rate (F) per geographical unit. Mean age and mean net diversification rate are based on the global phylogeny with angiosperms crown age constrained to 140–150 Ma. Solid red lines represent linear (A–D) and model II geometric mean regression line (E, F). All p-values (P) and r2 were estimated by linear regression.
