Complete chloroplast genome of Gypsophila oldhamiana Miq. (Caryophyllales: Caryophyllaceae) [PDF]
The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Gypsophila oldhamiana Miq., a species of the Caryophyllaceae family, was assembled and analyzed from the de novo assembly of Illumina paired-end sequencing data. The total length of the chloroplast genome of G.

Longevity in plants impacts phylogenetic and population dynamics. [PDF]
Summary Phylogenies of long‐lived plants often exhibit short molecular branch lengths and high levels of gene‐tree conflict. However, the biological mechanisms underlying these patterns remain unclear. We examine this with simulations and through empirical examination of several large seed plant clades.

The multipartite mitochondrial genome of Fallopia multiflora (Caryophyllales: Polygonaceae) [PDF]
Fallopia multiflora is an important Oriental herb belonging to the family Polygonaceae. The F. multiflora mitochondrial genome consists of two circular chromosomes that were 200,352- and 112,098-nucleotides long. The mitochondrial genome encodes 57 genes,

Convergent losses of arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis in carnivorous plants. [PDF]
Summary Most land plants form the ancient arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis, while carnivory is a younger trait that evolved in several angiosperm orders. The two biotic interactions similarly help plants acquire mineral nutrients, raising the question of whether they can coexist.

Disparity, Diversity, and Duplications in the Caryophyllales [PDF]
SummaryThe role whole genome duplication (WGD) plays in the history of lineages is actively debated. WGDs have been associated with advantages including superior colonization, various adaptations, and increased effective population size. However, the lack of a comprehensive mapping of WGDs within a major plant clade has led to uncertainty regarding the

The evolution of betalain biosynthesis in Caryophyllales [PDF]
SummaryWithin the angiosperm order Caryophyllales, an unusual class of pigments known as betalains can replace the otherwise ubiquitous anthocyanins. In contrast to the phenylalanine‐derived anthocyanins, betalains are tyrosine‐derived pigments which contain the chromophore betalamic acid. The origin of betalain pigments within Caryophyllales and their

One-seeded fruits in the core Caryophyllales: their origin and structural diversity.
The core Caryophyllales consist of approximately 30 families (12,000 species) distributed worldwide. Many members evolved one-seeded or conjoined fruits, but their origin and structural diversity have not been investigated.
