在有限的资源和紧迫感的驱使下，物种保护的优先顺序一直是保护科学的一个持续关注的问题。裸子植物（包括银杏，针叶树，苏铁和买麻藤）是最受威胁的生物群体之一，40%的物种处于灭绝的高风险中，大约是所有植物最新估计的两倍（即21.4%）。面临灭绝的物种所占比例如此之高，突出表明需要采取紧急行动，通过客观的优先顺序办法来确保其未来。进化独特和全球濒危（EDGE）方法根据物种的进化独特性和面临的灭绝风险对物种进行快速排名。EDGE应用于裸子植物，使用系统发育树，包括DNA序列数据的85%的裸子植物物种（923 1090种），其中167个缺失的物种被添加到，和IUCN红色名录评估可用于92%的物种。不同的灭绝概率转换和处理IUCN数据不足的物种的排名上的效果进行了研究。虽然我们的排名中排名靠前的物种包括预期得分很高的物种（例如Wollemia nobilis，银杏），但许多物种是出乎意料的（例如Araucaria araucana）。这些结果强调了在保护科学中使用整合进化信息的方法的必要性。
Driven by limited resources and a sense of urgency, the prioritization of species for conservation has been a persistent concern in conservation science. Gymnosperms (comprising ginkgo, conifers, cycads, and gnetophytes) are one of the most threatened groups of living organisms, with 40% of the species at high risk of extinction, about twice as many as the most recent estimates for all plants (i.e. 21.4%). This high proportion of species facing extinction highlights the urgent action required to secure their future through an objective prioritization approach. The Evolutionary Distinct and Globally Endangered (EDGE) method rapidly ranks species based on their evolutionary distinctiveness and the extinction risks they face. EDGE is applied to gymnosperms using a phylogenetic tree comprising DNA sequence data for 85% of gymnosperm species (923 out of 1090 species), to which the 167 missing species were added, and IUCN Red List assessments available for 92% of species. The effect of different extinction probability transformations and the handling of IUCN data deficient species on the resulting rankings is investigated. Although top entries in our ranking comprise species that were expected to score well (e.g. Wollemia nobilis, Ginkgo biloba), many were unexpected (e.g. Araucaria araucana). These results highlight the necessity of using approaches that integrate evolutionary information in conservation science.
