An increasing number of studies using genetic data at the generic and species levels reveal
complex patterns of relationships among populations and species. Incomplete lineage …

Orchids constitute one of the most spectacular radiations of flowering plants. However, their
origin, spread across the globe, and hotspots of speciation remain uncertain due to the lack …

One of the longstanding questions in phylogenetic systematics is how to address
incongruence among phylogenies obtained from multiple markers and how to determine the …

Correct combination of plastid (cp) and nuclear (nr) DNA data for plant phylogenetic
reconstructions is not a new issue, but with an increasing number of nrDNA loci being used …

The study of genetic exchange resulting from natural hybridization, horizontal gene transfer,
and viral recombination has long been marked by controversy between researchers holding …

PREMISE The inference of evolutionary relationships in the species‐rich family Orchidaceae
has hitherto relied heavily on plastid DNA sequences and limited taxon sampling. Previous …

We examined the phylogenetic history of Linaria with special emphasis on the
Mediterranean sect. Supinae (44 species). We revealed extensive highly supported …

Chenopodium is a large and morphologically variable genus of annual and perennial herbs
with an almost global distribution. All subgenera and most sections of Chenopodium were …

Recent phylogenomic analyses based on the maternally inherited plastid organelle have
enlightened evolutionary relationships between the subfamilies of Orchidaceae and most of …

The monophyly of tribe Arundinarieae (the temperate woody bamboos) has been
unequivocally recovered in previous molecular phylogenetic studies. In a recent …
