Ribosomal ITS sequences and plant phylogenetic inference
One of the most popular sequences for phylogenetic inference at the generic and
infrageneric levels in plants is the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of the 18S–5.8 S …

Characterization of angiosperm nrDNA polymorphism, paralogy, and pseudogenes
Many early reports of ITS region (ITS 1, 5.8 S, and ITS 2) variation in flowering plants
indicated that nrDNA arrays within individuals are homogeneous. However, both older and …

Functional trait niches of North American lotic insects: traits-based ecological applications in light of phylogenetic relationships
The use of species traits to characterize the functional composition of benthic invertebrate
communities has become well established in the ecological literature. This approach holds …

Noncoding plastid trnT‐trnF sequences reveal a well resolved phylogeny of basal angiosperms
Recent contributions from DNA sequences have revolutionized our concept of systematic
relationships in angiosperms. However, parts of the angiosperm tree remain unclear …

Phylogeny of seed plants based on all three genomic compartments: extant gymnosperms are monophyletic and Gnetales' closest relatives are conifers
LM Bowe, G Coat… - Proceedings of the …, 2000 - National Acad Sciences
Efforts to resolve Darwin's “abominable mystery”—the origin of angiosperms—have led to
the conclusion that Gnetales and various fossil groups are sister to angiosperms, forming the …

rbcL and legume phylogeny, with particular reference to Phaseoleae, Millettieae, and allies
A parsimony analysis was conducted on 319 rbcL sequences, comprising 242 from 194
genera of Leguminosae and 77 from other families. Results support earlier conclusions from …

The origin and diversification of angiosperms
The angiosperms, one of five groups of extant seed plants, are the largest group of land
plants. Despite their relatively recent origin, this clade is extremely diverse morphologically …
