Phylogenetic Evaluation of Series Delimitations in Section Palmata (Acer, Aceroideae, Sapindaceae) Based on Sequences of Nuclear and Chloroplast Genes [PDF]
, 2011 Acer section Palmata (Japanese maples) is the largest section within the genus; however, series delimitations within section Palmata have not been evaluated in a phylogenetic context. Both maximum parsimony and maximum likelihood analyses of DNA sequence

DNA metabarcoding reveals greater plant diversity than morphological seed analysis of bird feces
Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Fruit‐eating birds drive seed dispersal in recovering tropical ecosystems, shaping forest regeneration. Molecular techniques, such as DNA metabarcoding, enable diet analysis from feces and can provide complementary frugivory data where dispersal is infrequent, as well as aid in seed identification in hyper‐diverse regions lacking ...

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract BACKGROUND Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a major global food crop, and understanding its maternal lineage and genetic diversity is essential for breeding, authentication, and evolutionary studies. Chloroplast genomes provide valuable markers for phylogenetic inference and cultivar discrimination; however, conventional plant DNA ...

Genetic transformation of Artemisia carvifolia Buch with rol genes enhances artemisinin accumulation [PDF]
, 2016 The potent antimalarial drug artemisinin has a high cost, since its only viable source to date is Artemisia annua (0.010.8% DW). There is therefore an urgent need to design new strate- gies to increase its production or to find alternative sources.

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Petrocodon gracilis T.Ding & B.Pan and P. mirus X.Z.Shi, J.X.Fu & Li H.Yang are two recently described species exhibiting nearly identical morphology. To determine whether they represent the same taxon, we compared their type localities, type materials, and morphological features and conducted phylogenetic analyses using the nuclear internal ...

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.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.

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.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.
