One-seeded fruits in the core Caryophyllales: their origin and structural diversity.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
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.

The multipartite mitochondrial genome of Fallopia multiflora (Caryophyllales: Polygonaceae) [PDF]

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2018
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,

Transcriptomic prey-capture responses in convergently evolved carnivorous pitcher plants. [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytol
Summary The Australian pitcher plant Cephalotus and the Asian pitcher plant Nepenthes exhibit striking morphological and functional similarities, serving as compelling examples of convergent evolution. Although trapping pitchers in both lineages represent some of the most elaborate leaf structures in angiosperms, it remains unknown whether their ...

Longevity in plants impacts phylogenetic and population dynamics. [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytol
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.

Disparity, Diversity, and Duplications in the Caryophyllales [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2017
Summary The 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

Phylogeny of the Caryophyllales Sensu Lato: Revisiting Hypotheses on Pollination Biology and Perianth Differentiation in the Core Caryophyllales [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Plant Sciences, 2009
Molecular phylogenetics has revolutionized our understanding of the Caryophyllales, and yet many relationships have remained uncertain, particularly at deeper levels. We have performed parsimony and maximum likelihood analyses on separate and combined data sets comprising nine plastid genes (∼12,000 bp), two nuclear genes (∼5000 bp), and the plastid ...

open access: yes, 2013
An overview of Nepenthes in the Philippines is presented. Four new species, Nepenthes extincta sp. nov., N. kitanglad sp. nov., N. kurata sp. nov. and N. leyte sp. nov.

Complete chloroplast genome sequence of Holoparasite Cistanche Deserticola (Orobanchaceae) reveals gene loss and horizontal gene transfer from Its host Haloxylon Ammodendron (Chenopodiaceae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The central function of chloroplasts is to carry out photosynthesis, and its gene content and structure are highly conserved across land plants. Parasitic plants, which have reduced photosynthetic ability, suffer gene losses from the chloroplast (cp ...

Evolutionary origins of abnormally large shoot sodium accumulation in non-saline environments within the Caryophyllales [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The prevalence of sodium (Na) “hyperaccumulator” species, which exhibit abnormally large shoot sodium concentrations ([Na]shoot) when grown in non-saline environments, was investigated among angiosperms in general and within the Caryophyllales order in ...
