Abstract
PremiseThe Flora e Funga do Brasil project is the most comprehensive effort to reliably document Brazilian plant and fungal diversity. It involves the collaborative work of hundreds of taxonomists, integrating detailed and standardized morphological descriptions, nomenclatural status, and geographic distribution information of plants, algae, and fungi collected throughout Brazil. Despite the extensive information available, managing the information from the Flora e Funga do Brasil website poses certain challenges.Methods and Resultsflorabr is an R package developed to facilitate the exploration and geographical analysis of species information derived from the Flora e Funga do Brasil. Unique to florabr is its ability to interact with the latest, or any other version of the dataset, which undergoes weekly updates. I illustrate the practical application of florabr in common tasks in biogeography and conservation studies.Conclusionsflorabr is anticipated to be of significant interest to biogeographers, ecologists, curators of biological collections, and taxonomists actively contributing to the Flora e Funga do Brasil.
florabr：利用 Flora e Funga do Brasil 探索和空间化物种分布的 R 软件包
前提条件Flora e Funga do Brasil 项目是可靠记录巴西植物和真菌多样性的最全面的工作。该项目涉及数百名分类学家的合作工作，整合了在巴西各地收集到的植物、藻类和真菌的详细和标准化形态描述、命名状况和地理分布信息。方法和结果florabr是一个R软件包，开发它的目的是为了方便探索和地理分析来自巴西植物志的物种信息。florabr 的独特之处在于它能够与每周更新的最新版数据集或任何其他版本的数据集进行交互。我说明了 florabr 在生物地理学和保护研究的常见任务中的实际应用。结论预计生物地理学家、生态学家、生物收藏馆馆长以及积极为巴西植物志做出贡献的分类学家会对 florabr 产生浓厚的兴趣。
期刊介绍：
Applications in Plant Sciences (APPS) is a monthly, peer-reviewed, open access journal promoting the rapid dissemination of newly developed, innovative tools and protocols in all areas of the plant sciences, including genetics, structure, function, development, evolution, systematics, and ecology. Given the rapid progress today in technology and its application in the plant sciences, the goal of APPS is to foster communication within the plant science community to advance scientific research. APPS is a publication of the Botanical Society of America, originating in 2009 as the American Journal of Botany''s online-only section, AJB Primer Notes & Protocols in the Plant Sciences.
APPS publishes the following types of articles: (1) Protocol Notes describe new methods and technological advancements; (2) Genomic Resources Articles characterize the development and demonstrate the usefulness of newly developed genomic resources, including transcriptomes; (3) Software Notes detail new software applications; (4) Application Articles illustrate the application of a new protocol, method, or software application within the context of a larger study; (5) Review Articles evaluate available techniques, methods, or protocols; (6) Primer Notes report novel genetic markers with evidence of wide applicability.
