Multiple independent origins of auto-pollination in tropical orchids (Bulbophyllum) in light of the hypothesis of selfing as an evolutionary dead end [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: The transition from outcrossing to selfing has long been portrayed as an ‘evolutionary dead end because, first, reversals are unlikely and, second, selfing lineages suffer from higher rates of extinction owing to a reduced potential for ...

A Practical Guide for Harnessing Phylogenomics in Biocontrol: Accounting for Topological Uncertainty and Phylogenetic Distance in the Centrifugal Phylogenetic Method and Beyond

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT In the genomic era, phylogenomics is playing an increasingly important role in biological control research for prioritising species in host specificity testing, species delimitation, and elucidating the origins of introduced species. This paper outlines key concepts in phylogenomics relevant to biocontrol practitioners and provides practical ...

Molecular species identification with rich floristic sampling: DNA barcoding the pteridophyte flora of Japan.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
BackgroundDNA barcoding is expected to be an effective identification tool for organisms with heteromorphic generations such as pteridophytes, which possess a morphologically simple gametophyte generation. Although a reference data set including complete

DNA metabarcoding reveals greater plant diversity than morphological seed analysis of bird feces

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, Volume 14, Issue 1, January-February 2026.
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 ...

New information forIlexphylogenetics based on the plastidpsbA-trnHintergenic spacer (Aquifoliaceae) [PDF]

open access: yesBotanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2009
The aim of the present work was to clarify the origin and phylogenetic position of the species belonging to the genus Ilex (Aquifoliaceae), especially the South American species. Phylogenetic relationships of the genus Ilex were investigated using the plastid psbA-trnH intergenic spacer and parsimony and Bayesian analyses.

Dietary DNA Metabarcoding From Animal Fecal Samples

open access: yesCurrent Protocols, Volume 6, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Fecal DNA metabarcoding is a powerful tool for examining animal diets with unprecedented resolution, offering insights into ecological patterns shaped by trophic interactions. As a result, dietary metabarcoding has become widely applied across ecology, evolution, behavior, and conservation.
