In this chapter, we review major classification schemes proposed for oaks by John Claudius
Loudon, Anders Sandøe Ørsted, William Trelease, Otto Karl Anton Schwarz, Aimée …

The genus Quercus is among the most widespread and species‐rich tree genera in the
northern hemisphere. The extraordinary species diversity in America and Asia together with …

Novel species of fungi described in this study include those from various countries as
follows: Antartica, Cladosporium austrolitorale from coastal sea sand. Australia …

The tree of life is highly reticulate, with the history of population divergence emerging from
populations of gene phylogenies that reflect histories of introgression, lineage sorting and …

Summary Oaks (Quercus, Fagaceae) are the dominant tree genus of North America in
species number and biomass, and Mexico is a global center of oak diversity. Understanding …

Quercus is considered economically and ecologically one of the most important genera in
the Northern Hemisphere. Oaks are taxonomically perplexing because of shared …

Previous phylogenetic studies in oaks (Quercus, Fagaceae) have failed to resolve the
backbone topology of the genus with strong support. Here, we utilize next-generation …

DNA barcoding is a useful tool for species identification and phylogenetic construction. But
present studies have far reached a consistent result on the universality of DNA barcoding …

Plastid phylogenomic analyses have shed light on many recalcitrant relationships across the
angiosperm Tree of Life and continue to play an important role in plant phylogenetics …
