Factors affecting the concordance between orthologous gene trees and species tree in bacteria
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2008 Background As originally defined, orthologous genes implied a reflection of the history of the species. In recent years, many studies have examined the concordance between orthologous gene trees and species trees in bacteria.

Target capture data resolve recalcitrant relationships in the coffee family (Rubioideae, Rubiaceae)
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Subfamily Rubioideae is the largest of the main lineages in the coffee family (Rubiaceae), with over 8,000 species and 29 tribes. Phylogenetic relationships among tribes and other major clades within this group of plants are still only partly resolved ...
