Resumen
During the last decades, phylogeography has transformed the ways to analyze and understand
plant diversity and biogeography. The repeated and increasingly detailed articles made
from DNA data with phylogeographical procedures and algorithms have revolutionized biodiversity
research, particularly on biodiversity conservation. This paper presents a systematic literature review
of the different ways in which phylogeography has been applied to plants in Mediterranean-type
ecosystems (MTEs), especially to rare, threatened, and endemic plants. Studies ranged from basic
research to how phylogeography is actually contributing to management conservation of Mediterranean
plants. Finally, new and future phylogeography perspectives with integrative scientific
arguments and conceptual bases applied to plant conservation biology are discussed.
