Transcriptome analysis of two radiated Cycas species and the subsequent species delimitation of the Cycas taiwaniana complex [PDF]
Premise Cycas is an important gymnosperm genus, and the most diverse of all cycad genera. The C. taiwaniana complex of species are morphologically similar and difficult to distinguish due to a lack of genomic resources.
