Complete Chloroplast Genome Sequence of Musa balbisiana Corroborates Structural Heterogeneity of Inverted Repeats in Wild Progenitors of Cultivated Bananas and Plantains

The Plant Genome, Volume 9, Issue 2, July 2016., 2016
Complete genome sequencing of cytoplasmically inherited chloroplast DNA provides novel insights into the origins of clonally propagated crops such as banana and plantain (Musa spp.). This study describes the structural organization of the chloroplast genome of M.

Genome Size Dynamics and Evolution in Monocots

Journal of Botany, Volume 2010, Issue 1, 2010., 2010
Monocot genomic diversity includes striking variation at many levels. This paper compares various genomic characters (e.g., range of chromosome numbers and ploidy levels, occurrence of endopolyploidy, GC content, chromosome packaging and organization, genome size) between monocots and the remaining angiosperms to discern just how distinctive monocot ...

On the Tempo of Genome Size Evolution in Angiosperms

Journal of Botany, Volume 2010, Issue 1, 2010., 2010
Broadly sampled phylogenies have uncovered extreme deviations from a molecular clock with the rates of molecular substitution varying dramatically within/among lineages. While growth form, a proxy for life history, is strongly correlated with molecular rate heterogeneity, its influence on trait evolution has yet to be examined.

Genomic analysis of Nypa fruticans elucidates its intertidal adaptations and early palm evolution

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 66, Issue 4, Page 824-843, April 2024.
Analysis of the chromosome‐level genome sequence of Nypa fruticans, a mangrove palm, sheds light on its long evolutionary history, genome stability, and adaptive evolution to intertidal environments through phenotypic innovation, providing crucial genomic insights into the evolutionary dynamics of early palms.

Young evolutionary origins of dioecy in the genus Asparagus

American Journal of Botany, Volume 111, Issue 2, February 2024.
Abstract Premise Dioecy (separate sexes) has independently evolved numerous times across the angiosperm phylogeny and is recently derived in many lineages. However, our understanding is limited regarding the evolutionary mechanisms that drive the origins of dioecy in plants.

Angiosperm‐wide analysis of fruit and ovary evolution aided by a new nuclear phylogeny supports association of the same ovary type with both dry and fleshy fruits

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 66, Issue 2, Page 228-251, February 2024.
Phylogenetic analysis and molecular dating elucidate relationships for orders and families, trace crown angiosperms’ Triassic origin, unveil parallel carpel fusions in early eudicots, monocots, and magnoliids and associate specific fruit types sharing the same ovary type.
