Physicochemical evolution and positive selection of the gymnosperm matK proteins
Journal of Genetics, 2010It is not clear whether matK evolves under Darwinian selection. In this study, the gymnosperm Taxaceae, Cephalotaxaceae and Pinaceae were used to illustrate the physicochemical evolution, molecular adaptation and evolutionary dynamics of gene divergence in matKs. matK sequences were amplified from 27 Taxaceae and 12 Cephalotaxaceae species.

Angiosperm phylogeny based on matK sequence information.
American journal of botany, 2012Plastid matK gene sequences for 374 genera representing all angiosperm orders and 12 genera of gymnosperms were analyzed using parsimony (MP) and Bayesian inference (BI) approaches. Traditionally, slowly evolving genomic regions have been preferred for deep-level phylogenetic inference in angiosperms.

Identification of Fabaceae Plants Using the DNA BarcodematK
Planta Medica, 2010In this study, we tested the applicability of the core DNA barcode MATK for identifying species within the Fabaceae family. Based on an evaluation of genetic variation, DNA barcoding gaps, and species discrimination power, MATK is a useful barcode for Fabaceae species.

Phylogenetic Relationships of Amaryllidaceae Based on matK Sequence Data
Journal of Plant Research, 1999gene, which is located in the chloroplast genome and evolves more quickly than the rbcL gene. A total of 31 species representing 31 of the 59 genera in the family were examined in this study. We also used 21 species from another ten families of Asparagales, four species from three families of Liliales and Acorus as outgroups.

Mode and Tempo of matK: Gene Evolution and Phylogenetic Implications
2008The matK gene is approximately 1,500 base pairs in length, located in the large single copy region of the chloroplast genome, nested in the trnK intron. The protein product of the gene is proposed to function as a group II intron maturase. Evolutionary, molecular, and bioinformatic evidence supports this proposed function.
