Understanding the evolutionary relationships of endemic plants is crucial for conservation and biodiversity management. This study explores the phylogenetic and evolutionary dynamics of plant species that are restricted to specific geographic areas or are considered rare due to their limited distribution. By integrating molecular phylogenetics, comparative genomics, and ecological data, we aim to elucidate the evolutionary history and adaptive strategies of these plants. Our analysis highlights how historical climate changes, geological events, and ecological interactions have shaped the distribution and diversity of endemic and rare plant species. The findings offer insights into the mechanisms driving plant rarity and endemism, informing conservation strategies and enhancing our understanding of plant evolutionary processes.
