Integration of Bayesian molecular clock methods and fossil-based soft bounds reveals early Cenozoic origin of African lacertid lizards [PDF]

, 2009
Background Although current molecular clock methods offer greater flexibility in modelling historical evolutionary events, calibration of the clock with dates from the fossil record is still problematic for many groups.

Time-calibrated molecular phylogeny of pteropods.

PLoS ONE, 2017
Pteropods are a widespread group of holoplanktonic gastropod molluscs and are uniquely suitable for study of long-term evolutionary processes in the open ocean because they are the only living metazoan plankton with a good fossil record.

Development of new molecular markers for phylogeny and molecular identification of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (glomeromycota) [PDF]

, 2007
The RPB1 gene was analyzed as a possible new nuclear-encoded molecular marker for the Glomeromycota. New Glomus group A-specific primers were designed and successfully tested on several members of this group. No evidence for genetic variability was found

Molecular phylogeny of the Entomophthoromycota

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2012
The Entomophthoromycota is a ubiquitous group of fungi best known as pathogens of a wide variety of economically important insect pests, and other soil invertebrates. This group of fungi also includes a small number of parasites of reptiles, vertebrates (including humans), macromycetes, fern gametophytes, and desmid algae, as well as some saprobic ...

Phylogenetic review of the millipede genus Cherokia Chamberlin, 1949 (Polydesmida, Xystodesmidae) [PDF]

ZooKeys, 2022
The millipede genus Cherokia Chamberlin, 1949 is a monospecific taxon, with the type species Cherokia georgiana (Bollman, 1889). The last revision of the genus was made by Hoffman (1960) where he established three subspecies.

Monophyly of brachiopods and phoronids: reconciliation of molecular evidence with Linnaean classification (the subphylum Phoroniformea nov.) [PDF]

, 2000
Molecular phylogenetic analyses of aligned 18S rDNA gene sequences from articulate and inarticulate brachiopods representing all major extant lineages, an enhanced set of phoronids and several unrelated protostome taxa, confirm previous indications that ...

Reconstructing mammalian phylogenies : a detailed comparison of the cytochrome b and cytochrome oxidase subunit I mitochondrial genes [PDF]

, 2010
The phylogeny and taxonomy of mammalian species were originally based upon shared or derived morphological characteristics. However, genetic analyses have more recently played an increasingly important role in confirming existing or establishing often ...

Patellariopsidaceae Fam. Nov. With Sexual-Asexual Connection and a New Host Record for Cheirospora botryospora (Vibrisseaceae, Ascomycota)

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Helotiales is a polyphyletic order of Ascomycetes. The paucity of relevant molecular data and unclear connections of sexual and asexual morphs present challenges in resolving taxa within this order. In the present study, Patellariopsidaceae fam.

Molecular phylogeny and revision of species groups of Nearctic bombardier beetles (Carabidae, Brachininae, Brachinus ( Neobrachinus)) [PDF]

ZooKeys, 2022
Bombardier beetles of the genus Brachinus Weber are notorious for their explosive defensive chemistry. Despite ongoing research on their defense mechanism, life history, and ecology, the group lacks a robust molecular-based phylogeny.

Dasylirion systematics: taxonomy and molecular phylogeny

Botan‪ical Sciences, 1995
The results of a systematics study in which Dasylirion was fully monographed are reported. Sixteen species, including four new ones, were recognized. Data from chloroplast DNA restriction site analysis suggest that the species of Dasylirion in southern ...
