- Abstract
This editorial from the journal Frontiers in Plant Science discusses the decline in global biodiversity and the importance of understanding historical changes and predicting future trends in order to develop effective conservation strategies. The editorial presents 34 articles that explore the distribution patterns of plant diversity and identify the key drivers behind these changes. The articles utilize various ecological research methods and discuss factors such as climate change, soil factors, and human activities as drivers of plant diversity. The editorial concludes by recommending future research directions, including the need to study aquatic and marine ecosystems to fully understand plant diversity patterns. The text includes author contributions, funding sources, acknowledgments, and references to other relevant studies.
