A two‐tier bioinformatic pipeline to develop probes for target capture of nuclear loci with applications in Melastomataceae

Applications in Plant Sciences, 2020
Premise Putatively single‐copy nuclear (SCN) loci, which are identified using genomic resources of closely related species, are ideal for phylogenomic inference.

An updated and extended version of the Melastomataceae probe set for target capture [PDF]

Applications in Plant Sciences
Premise A probe set was previously designed to target 384 nuclear loci in the Melastomataceae family; however, when trying to use it, we encountered several practical and conceptual problems, such as the presence of sequences in reverse complement ...

Vivipary, a rare phenomenon in Afrotropical Melastomataceae: first report in Amphiblemma ciliatum (Sonerileae) [PDF]

Plant Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Background and aims – Within angiosperms, vivipary has been reported in less than 0.1% of all species. We herein report the first occurrence of vivipary in an Afrotropical Melastomataceae and discuss its phylogenetic position, habit, habitat, and fruit ...

The predictive power of pollination syndromes: Passerine pollination in heterantherous Meriania macrophylla (Benth.) Triana (Melastomataceae)

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
The cloud forest species Meriania macrophylla (Benth.) Triana has pseudocampanulate flowers with bulbous stamen appendages, typical for the passerine pollination syndrome found in the Melastomataceae tribe Merianieae. The species is further characterized

New species and new combinations in Sonerila and Phyllagathis (Melastomataceae) from Thailand [PDF]

, 1997
While revising the Melastomataceae for the Flora of Thailand, we discovered two new species of Sonerila, as well as the need for transferring two species of Tylanthera endemic to Thailand into Phyllagathis. Sonerila urceolata and S. loeiensis are endemic

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)
