Genome-scale data and the development of novel statistical phylogenetic approaches have
greatly aided the reconstruction of a broad sketch of the tree of life and resolved many of its …

The advances accelerated by next‐generation sequencing and long‐read sequencing
technologies continue to provide an impetus for plant phylogenetic study. In the past …

Peatlands are crucial sinks for atmospheric carbon but are critically threatened due to
warming climates. Sphagnum (peat moss) species are keystone members of peatland …

Background Deep-branching phylogenetic relationships are often difficult to resolve
because phylogenetic signals are obscured by the long history and complexity of …

The baobab trees (genus Adansonia) have attracted tremendous attention because of their
striking shape and distinctive relationships with fauna. These spectacular trees have also …

The phylogeny and speciation of subterranean zokors in China are unclear, as previous
studies on morphology and limited molecular markers have generated conflicting results …

Abstract.—Phylogenomics allows us to uncover the historical signal of evolutionary
processes through time and estimate phylogenetic networks accounting for these signals …

Under rapid radiation, the earliest components of evolutionary divergence are often difficult
to resolve, which were always driven by the characteristics of taxa and the limitations of …

Background The “woody clade” in Saxifragales (WCS), encompassing four woody families
(Altingiaceae, Cercidiphyllaceae, Daphniphyllaceae, and Hamamelidaceae), is a …

Prokaryotic genomes are often considered to be mosaics of genes that do not necessarily
share the same evolutionary history due to widespread horizontal gene transfers (HGTs) …
