The role of ancestral state reconstruction in mycological researches: methods and insights

Studies in Fungi
Clarifying the phylogenetic relationships of fungi by integrating genetic evolution and morphological characteristics is central to modern fungal taxonomy. Ancestral state reconstruction (ASR) is a key phylogenetic tool that applies statistical models to

Cyto-nuclear discordance in the phylogeny of Ficus section Galoglychia and host shifts in plant-pollinator associations

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2009
Background Hybridization events are relatively common in vascular plants. However, the frequency of these events is unevenly distributed across the plant phylogeny.

Phylogeny, biogeography, and character evolution of Anaphalis (Gnaphalieae, Asteraceae)

Frontiers in Plant Science
The HAP clade, mainly including Helichrysum Mill, Anaphalis DC., and Pseudognaphalium Kirp., is a major component of tribe Gnaphalieae (Asteraceae). In this clade, Anaphalis represents the largest genus of Asian Gnaphalieae.

Phylogenetics, Molecular Species Delimitation and Geometric Morphometrics of All Reddish-Brown Species in the Genus Neotriplax Lewis, 1887 (Coleoptera: Erotylidae: Tritomini)

Insects
To date, five species of reddish-brown Neotriplax have been described, but their highly similar body color and other phenotypic traits make accurate taxonomy challenging.

Chloroplast-genome-based insights into the systematic relationship of Eriobotrya (Rhaphiolepis)

iScience
Summary: The taxonomy of Eriobotrya and Rhaphiolepis has long been contentious due to unclear interspecific relationships, morphological ambiguities, low barcode resolution, and lack of molecular phylogenetic support.
