The availability of public genomic resources can greatly assist biodiversity assessment,
conservation, and restoration efforts by providing evidence for scientifically informed …

The purpose of this review is to present the most common and emerging DNA‐based
methods used to generate data for biodiversity and biomonitoring studies. As environmental …

Orchidaceae show remarkable diversity in pollination strategies, but how these strategies
vary globally is not entirely clear. To identify regions and taxa that are data-rich and lend …

DNA barcoding has had a major impact on biodiversity science. The elegant simplicity of
establishing massive scale databases for a few barcode loci is continuing to change our …

An unintended consequence of global change is an increase in opportunities for
hybridization among previously isolated lineages. Here we illustrate how global change can …

Cymbidium is an orchid genus that has undergone rapid radiation and has high ornamental,
economic, ecological and cultural importance, but its classification based on morphology is …

High-throughput DNA sequencing (HTS) presents great opportunities for plant systematics,
yet genomic complexity needs to be reduced for HTS to be effectively applied. We highlight …

Single and low copy nuclear genes offer a larger number of, and more rapidly evolving,
characters than the chloroplast and nuclear ribosomal gene sequences that have dominated …

We live in an era of unprecedented biodiversity loss, affecting the taxonomic composition of
ecosystems worldwide. The immense task of quantifying human imprints on global …

Today most population genomic studies of nonmodel organisms either sequence a subset of
the genome deeply in each individual or sequence pools of unlabelled individuals. With a …
