Angiosperms at the edge: Extremity, diversity, and phylogeny
A hallmark of flowering plants is their ability to invade some of the most extreme and
dynamic habitats, including cold and dry biomes, to a far greater extent than other land …

Nuclear phylogenomics of angiosperms and insights into their relationships and evolution
Angiosperms (flowering plants) are by far the most diverse land plant group with over
300,000 species. The sudden appearance of diverse angiosperms in the fossil record was …

Repeated upslope biome shifts in Saxifraga during late-Cenozoic climate cooling
Mountains are among the most biodiverse places on Earth, and plant lineages that inhabit
them have some of the highest speciation rates ever recorded. Plant diversity within the …

Phylotranscriptomics of Theaceae: generic-level relationships, reticulation and whole-genome duplication
Abstract Background and Aims Theaceae, with three tribes, nine genera and more than 200
species, are of great economic and ecological importance. Recent phylogenetic analyses …

Plastid and nuclear phylogenomic incongruences and biogeographic implications of Magnolia sl (Magnoliaceae)
Magnoliaceae, an assemblage of early diverged angiosperms, comprises two subfamilies,
speciose Magnolioideae with approximately 300 species in varying numbers of genera and …

Using target sequence capture to improve the phylogenetic resolution of a rapid radiation in New Zealand Veronica
PREMISE Recent, rapid radiations present a challenge for phylogenetic reconstruction. Fast
successive speciation events typically lead to low sequence divergence and poorly resolved …

Larger, unfiltered datasets are more effective at resolving phylogenetic conflict: Introns, exons, and UCEs resolve ambiguities in Golden-backed frogs (Anura: Ranidae …
Using FrogCap, a recently-developed sequence-capture protocol, we obtained> 12,000
highly informative exons, introns, and ultraconserved elements (UCEs), which we used to …

Analysis of Paralogs in Target Enrichment Data Pinpoints Multiple Ancient Polyploidy Events in Alchemilla sl (Rosaceae)
Target enrichment is becoming increasingly popular for phylogenomic studies. Although
baits for enrichment are typically designed to target single-copy genes, paralogs are often …

Phylogenomic analysis of the hemp family (Cannabaceae) reveals deep cyto‐nuclear discordance and provides new insights into generic relationships
Cannabaceae are a relatively small family of angiosperms, but they include several species
of huge economic and cultural significance: marijuana or hemp (Cannabis sativa) and hops …

Partitioned gene-tree analyses and gene-based topology testing help resolve incongruence in a phylogenomic study of host-specialist bees (Apidae: Eucerinae)
Incongruence among phylogenetic results has become a common occurrence in analyses of
genome-scale data sets. Incongruence originates from uncertainty in underlying …
