Revealing hidden species diversity in closely related species using nuclear SNPs, SSRs and DNA sequences - a case study in the tree genus Milicia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Species delimitation in closely related plant taxa can be challenging because (i) reproductive barriers are not always congruent with morphological differentiation, (ii) use of plastid sequences might lead to misinterpretation, (iii) rare ...

Molecular Phylogenetic Studies of Korean Calystegia R.Br. Based on ITS and psbA-trnH Sequences

open access: yesKorean Journal of Plant Taxonomy, 2011
Molecular phylogenetic studies were conducted to evaluate evolutionary trends, relationships and species identities among four species, one variety and one outgroup of the Korean Genus Calystegia. The important characteristics of Calystegia are the shape of the lamina, the length ofthe corolla and the presence of hair.

Unraveling cryptic lineages in Jatropha nana: phylogenetic evidence supports species status for J. benghalensis (Euphorbiaceae)

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 3, March 2026.
The taxonomic framework of the genus Jatropha (Euphorbiaceae) is well established, but its geophytic species present significant classification challenges. These difficulties arise from species complexes, cryptic traits, and high environmental and phenotypic variability.

Characterization and Identification of Pulsatilla koreana and Pulsatilla tongkangensis Seedlings Based on Morphology, Colorimetric Data, and Molecular Markers

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 54, Issue 1, March 2026.
Pulsatilla tongkangensis, an endemic species growing in the limited areas in Korea, is considered endangered species, and is growing in sympatric with P. koreana enabling natural hybridization. To characterize the true to the type of P. tongkangensis, we integrated morphological traits and molecular analyses of the nuclear ribosomal ITS (nrITS) and the

Ancient paralogy in the cpDNA trnL-F region in Annonaceae : implications for plant molecular systematics

open access: yes, 2007
The plastid trnL-F region has proved useful in molecular phylogenetic studies addressing diverse evolutionary questions from biogeographic history to character evolution in a broad range of plant groups.

Phylogeny of Dyschoriste (Acanthaceae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The pantropical and poorly known genus Dyschoriste (Acanthaceae) is sister to Strobilanthopsis within subtribe Petalidiinae. The present study included 38 accessions of 28 species as sources of DNA data for one nuclear (nrITS) and four chloroplast ...

Integrative phylogenomics and morphology reveal the evolution and biogeography of Encephalartos (Zamiaceae)

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 64, Issue 2, Page 295-312, March 2026.
We aimed to conduct phylogenetic analyses of Encephalartos, a cycad genus endemic to Africa, using 3545 single‐copy nuclear genes extracted from transcriptome data, covering 64/65 of the recognized species, along with inference of divergence times using two secondary calibration points.

Screening of the Candidate DNA Barcodes for Three Important Amorphophallus Species Identification

open access: yesAgronomy, 2020
Amorphophallus is widely distributed in Southeast Asia, Africa, and other places, with more than 170 species. Amorphophallus has high medicinal value and is commonly used in medicine. However, the current classification based on morphology is challenging

Time-Calibrated Phylogenies of Hummingbirds and Hummingbird-Pollinated Plants Reject a Hypothesis of Diffuse Co-Evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Neotropical ecosystems house levels of species diversity that are unmatched by any other region on Earth. One hypothesis to explain this celebrated diversity invokes a model of biotic interactions in which interspecific interactions drive diversification
