Impact of dysploidy and polyploidy on the diversification of high mountain Artemisia (Asteraceae) and allies [PDF]
Alpine Botany, 2015 14 p., tablas, gráficos, mapas -- Post-print del artículo publicado en Alpine Botany. Versión revisada y corregida. Molecular cytogenetics and the study of genome size have been used to understand evolutionary and systematic relationships in many species. However, this approach has seldom been applied to alpine plants.

Molecular phylogenetics of Melastomataceae and Memecylaceae [PDF]
, 2001 Melastomataceae are among the most abundant and diversified groups of plants throughout the tropics, but their intrafamily relationships and morphological evolution are poorly understood. Here we report the results of parsimony and maximum likelihood (ML)

Next‐generation sequencing,
The Plant Journal, 2013 SummaryIn the large Cucurbitaceae genus Cucumis, cucumber (C. sativus) is the only species with 2n = 2x = 14 chromosomes. The majority of the remaining species, including melon (C. melo) and the sister species of cucumber, C. hystrix, have 2n = 2x = 24 chromosomes, implying a reduction from n = 12 to n = 7.

Comparative high-density linkage mapping reveals conserved genome structure but variation in levels of heterochiasmy and location of recombination cold spots in the common frog [PDF]
, 2016 By combining 7077 SNPs and 61 microsatellites, we present the first linkage map for some of the early diverged lineages of the common frog, Rana temporaria, and the densest linkage map to date for this species.

Use of targeted SNP selection for an improved anchoring of the melon (Cucumis melo L.) scaffold genome assembly [PDF]
, 2015 Background: The genome of the melon (Cucumis melo L.) double-haploid line DHL92 was recently sequenced, with 87.5 and 80.8% of the scaffold assembly anchored and oriented to the 12 linkage groups, respectively. However, insufficient marker coverage and a

Karyotype evolution in Helianthemum (Cistaceae): dysploidy, achiasmate meiosis and ecological specialization in H. squamatum, a true gypsophile [PDF]
Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2019 AbstractHelianthemum squamatum is a specialist gypsophile, the only species of a recently diverged lineage in subgenus Helianthemum characterized by having the lowest chromosome number in the genus (n = 5). With the hypothesis of great genome reorganization in the lineage of H.
