How deep is the conflict between molecular and fossil evidence on the age of angiosperms?
The timing of the origin of angiosperms is a hotly debated topic in plant evolution. Molecular
dating analyses that consistently retrieve pre‐Cretaceous ages for crown‐group …

Integrated phylogenomics and fossil data illuminate the evolution of beetles
Beetles constitute the most biodiverse animal order with over 380 000 described species
and possibly several million more yet unnamed. Recent phylogenomic studies have arrived …

Origin of angiosperms and the puzzle of the Jurassic gap
Angiosperms are by far the most species-rich clade of land plants, but their origin and early
evolutionary history remain poorly understood. We reconstructed angiosperm phylogeny …

Phylogenomics reveals the evolutionary timing and pattern of butterflies and moths
Butterflies and moths (Lepidoptera) are one of the major superradiations of insects,
comprising nearly 160,000 described extant species. As herbivores, pollinators, and prey …

A universal probe set for targeted sequencing of 353 nuclear genes from any flowering plant designed using k-medoids clustering
Sequencing of target-enriched libraries is an efficient and cost-effective method for obtaining
DNA sequence data from hundreds of nuclear loci for phylogeny reconstruction. Much of the …

The delayed and geographically heterogeneous diversification of flowering plant families
Abstract The Early Cretaceous (145–100 million years ago (Ma)) witnessed the rise of
flowering plants (angiosperms), which ultimately lead to profound changes in terrestrial plant …

Divergent evolutionary trajectories of bryophytes and tracheophytes from a complex common ancestor of land plants
The origin of plants and their colonization of land fundamentally transformed the terrestrial
environment. Here we elucidate the basis of this formative episode in Earth history through …

The evolution and genomic basis of beetle diversity
The order Coleoptera (beetles) is arguably the most speciose group of animals, but the
evolutionary history of beetles, including the impacts of plant feeding (herbivory) on beetle …

The rise of angiosperms pushed conifers to decline during global cooling
Competition among species and entire clades can impact species diversification and
extinction, which can shape macroevolutionary patterns. The fossil record shows successive …
