Morphological and molecular analyses consistently support the existence of two species under Hypochaeris achyrophorus (Asteraceae, Cichorieae)

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 1473-1487, December 2024.
Abstract The species boundaries in Hypochaeris sect. Seriola (Asteraceae, Cichorieae) are difficult to establish due to the phenotypic similarity between taxa. The main objective of the present study was to characterize the phylogenetic position of the annual Hypochaeris achyrophorus using plastid and nuclear DNA markers, and to determine whether some ...

A Complete Generic Phylogeny of Malpighiaceae Inferred from Nucleotide Sequence Data and Morphology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Premise of the study: The Malpighiaceae include ∼1300 tropical flowering plant species in which generic definitions and intergeneric relationships have long been problematic.

Repeated shifts out of tropical climates preceded by whole genome duplication

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 244, Issue 6, Page 2561-2575, December 2024.
Summary While flowering plants have diversified in virtually every terrestrial clime, climate constrains the distribution of individual lineages. Overcoming climatic constraints may be associated with diverse evolutionary phenomena including whole genome duplication (WGD), gene‐tree conflict, and life‐history changes.

Sequencing complex plants on a budget: The development of Kalanchoë blossfeldiana as a C3, CAM comparative tool

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 6, Issue 6, Page 1314-1328, November 2024.
Research efforts in plant biology have often been focused on sequenced and well‐studied ‘model’ organisms. Despite the advent of relatively inexpensive genome sequencing, most plant taxonomic groups are underrepresented, with few species that ‘represent’ the diversity of whole genera.

Adaptations of succulent plants for survival in desert ecosystems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Cilj ovog seminara bio je nabrojati prilagodbe sukulentnih biljaka koje su im nužne za preživljavanje u pustinjskim ekosustavima. Sukulenti su biljke koje imaju posebne morfološke i ekofiziološke prilagodbe za pojačano primanje i pohranu vode.

Use of eDNA and conventional sampling methods to survey rock pool (gnamma) biodiversity on granite inselbergs

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 49, Issue 8, August 2024.
Environmental DNA sampling coupled with high‐throughput sequencing is increasingly recognized as a useful method for assessing biodiversity with potential applications in terrestrial environments. Rock pools on granite inselbergs support diverse aquatic communities, yet the application of eDNA to document their biodiversity is lacking.

Plasticity for the win: Flexible transcriptional response to host plant switches in the comma butterfly (Polygonia c‐album)

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 16, August 2024.
Abstract Generalist plant‐feeding insects are characterised by a broad host repertoire that can comprise several families or even different orders of plants. The genetic and physiological mechanisms underlying the use of such a wide host range are still not fully understood.

Floral structure and systematics in four orders of rosids, including a broad survey of floral mucilage cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Phylogenetic studies have greatly impacted upon the circumscription of taxa within the rosid clade, resulting in novel relationships at all systematic levels. In many cases the floral structure of these taxa has never been compared, and in some families,
