Systematics of Bromelioideae (Bromeliaceae)—Evidence from Molecular and Anatomical Studies [PDF]
Aliso, 2007 A reconstruction of the phylogeny of Bromeliaceae based on sequence data from three noncoding chloroplast DNA markers (trnL intron, trnT–trnL, and trnT–trnF intergenic spacer [IGS]) is presented, including 26 genera and 33 species.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 The subfamily Bromelioideae is one of the most diverse groups among the neotropical Bromeliaceae. Previously, key innovations have been identified which account for the extraordinary radiation and species richness of this subfamily, especially in the so ...

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 32, Issue 9, Page 1607-1617, September 2023., 2023 Abstract Aim Angiosperm epiphytes have long been reported to have larger geographic ranges than terrestrial species, despite evidence of their outstanding diversity and endemism. This apparent contradiction calls for further investigation of epiphytes' poorly understood range size patterns. Here, we address the question of whether epiphytes have larger

New genus and species records of Bromeliaceae in the Caatinga of Rio Grande do Norte state, northeastern Brazil: Orthophytum disjunctum L.B. Sm. (Bromelioideae) and Tillandsia paraibensis R.A. Pontes (Tillandsioideae) [PDF]
Check List, 2013 In the present work we describe the first occurrence of the genus Orthophytum (Bromeliaceae, Bromelioideae) and of the species Tillandsia paraibensis within the state of Rio Grande do Norte, northeastern Brazil.

Smoothing out the misconceptions of the role of bark roughness in vascular epiphyte attachment
New Phytologist, Volume 238, Issue 3, Page 983-994, May 2023., 2023 Summary Vascular epiphytes represent c. 10% of all vascular plant species. In epiphytes, attachment is essential for survival throughout consecutive ontogenetic stages of their life, starting with: (1) initial propagule attachment to the host; followed by (2) the development of first root‐substrate connections; and (3) maintenance of this attachment ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 8, August 2022., 2022 Comparative analyses revealed plastome features, genomic evolution, divergence time, and phylogenetic relationships of the genus Puya. Plastomes have great potential for phylogenetic recontraction and species discrimination of Puya. Abstract The Andean plant endemic Puya is a striking example of recent and rapid diversification from central Chile to ...

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 22, Issue 3, Page 927-945, April 2022., 2022 Abstract Target capture has emerged as an important tool for phylogenetics and population genetics in nonmodel taxa. Whereas developing taxon‐specific capture probes requires sustained efforts, available universal kits may have a lower power to reconstruct relationships at shallow phylogenetic scales and within rapidly radiating clades. We present here

American Journal of Botany, Volume 108, Issue 10, Page 1957-1981, October 2021., 2021 Abstract Premise Classification of taxa depends on the quality of inferred phylogenies. Rhododendron, a highly species‐rich genus (>1156 species) of woody plants, has a highly debated infrageneric classification, due to its huge diversity, homoplasy in key characters, and incongruence among data sets.

Feddes Repertorium, Volume 132, Issue 1, Page 20-27, March 2021., 2021 Bromeliaceae arose in the Early Cretaceous, diverging from Typhaceae at ca. 125 Ma. After an apparent evolutionary stasis of 100 million years, they have undergone a high diversification starting in the Miocene. By adding fossils to the phylogenies, one can infer dates of arising and the divergence of lineages and link them to geological and climatic ...
