Molecular differentiation of the Murraya paniculata Complex (Rutaceae: Aurantioideae: Aurantieae)

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019
Background Orange jasmine has a complex nomenclatural history and is now known as Murraya paniculata (L.) Jack. Our interest in this common ornamental stemmed from the need to resolve its identity and the identities of closely related taxa as hosts of ...

Multigene analyses of bilaterian animals corroborate the monophyly of Ecdysozoa, Lophotrochozoa, and Protostomia.

open access: yesMolecular biology and evolution, 2005
Almost a decade ago, a new phylogeny of bilaterian animals was inferred from small-subunit ribosomal RNA (rRNA) that claimed the monophyly of two major groups of protostome animals: Ecdysozoa (e.g., arthropods, nematodes, onychophorans, and tardigrades ...

Inferring kangaroo phylogeny from incongruent nuclear and mitochondrial genes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The marsupial genus Macropus includes three subgenera, the familiar large grazing kangaroos and wallaroos of M. (Macropus) and M. (Osphranter), as well as the smaller mixed grazing/browsing wallabies of M. (Notamacropus).

Monophyly of the genus Liopsetta (Pleuronectidae)

open access: yes, 2014
A phylogenetic analysis of 15 flatfish species based on 40 morphological characters was conducted to determine the interrelationships of the genera Liopsetta, Pleuronectes and Pseudopleuronectes. The results indicate that Liopsetta forms a monophyletic lineage defined by the reduction of the infraorbital sensory canal of the ocular side, small scale ...

Genomic Footprints of Ancient Multi‐Species Introgression Events Among Allopatric Australo‐Papuan Butcherbird Species

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Climate change has influenced the evolution of the world's biota, shaping species distributions, promoting diversification and causing extinctions. The turbulent climatic oscillations of the Pleistocene, which caused repeated periods of isolation and secondary contact, have left lasting signatures on the genomes of species across the world.

On monospecific genera in prokaryotic taxonomy

open access: yesSynthetic and Systems Biotechnology, 2017
A monospecific genus contains a single species ever since it was proposed. Though formally more than half of the known prokaryotic genera are monospecific, we pick up those which actually raise taxonomic problems by violating monophyly of the taxon ...

Genetic and morphological variation in the genus Zygogonium (Zygnematophyceae, Charophyta) from localities in Europe and North America and description of Z. angustum, sp. nov.

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The globally distributed genus Zygogonium exhibits a narrow environmental range, with 19 morphologically described species. Its molecular characterization is poor, based on a single accession of the type species Z. ericetorum from Austria.

Diversity and systematics of philinid snails (Gastropoda: Cephalaspidea) in West Africa with remarks on the biogeography of the region

open access: yesZoological Journal of the Linnean Society, EarlyView., 2016
West Africa is often considered one of the least studied regions of the world concerning marine biodiversity. Knowledge about the philinid snails of the region has largely been based on shells, but shells can be insufficient to discriminate between species. In this paper, we review the diversity and revise the systematics of the West African species of
