Complete Chloroplast Genome of Enkianthus Lour. (Ericaceae): Comparative Analysis, Phylogenetic Relationships, Divergence History, and Adaptive Evolution

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2025.
The Enkianthus plastomes were first reported and compared. Enkianthus originated in the Late Cretaceous but diverged after the Lat‐Miocene. Genome‐wide scanning identified 12 positive selection genes relevant to adaptive evolution. ABSTRACT Enkianthus (Ericaceae) is a small genus of great ornamental and ecological importance, preferring the specialized

Evolutionary relationships in Panicoid grasses based on plastome phylogenomics (Panicoideae; Poaceae) [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Panicoideae are the second largest subfamily in Poaceae (grass family), with 212 genera and approximately 3316 species. Previous studies have begun to reveal relationships within the subfamily, but largely lack resolution and/or robust ...

Staghorn Ferns in Botanical Gardens: Which Species Do We Really Cultivate or Trade? 植物园中的鹿角蕨:我们真正保育或买卖的是什么？

Integrative Conservation, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 416-429, September 2025.
Staghorn ferns are among the most highly valued ornamental plants but several species experience major extinction threats. Here we establish a DNA barcoding reference dataset to support reliable identification of cultivated staghorn ferns to secure species identity of individuals at all life stages that are used in ex situ and in situ conservation of ...

Genetic diversity in Cypripedium calceolus (Orchidaceae) with a focus on north-western Europe, as revealed by plastid DNA length polymorphisms [PDF]

, 2017
Background and Aims Cypripedium calceolus, although widespread in Eurasia, is rare in many countries in which it occurs. Population genetics studies with nuclear DNA markers on this species have been hampered by its large nuclear genome size. Plastid DNA

Resurrection of the genus Staphisagria J. Hill, sister to all the other Delphinieae (Ranunculaceae) [PDF]

, 2011
Molecular sequence data show that the three species of Delphinium subg. Staphisagria (J. Hill) Peterm. form the sister clade to Aconitum L., Aconitella Spach, Consolida (DC.) S.F. Gray, and all remaining species of Delphinium L.

Comparison of genetic and phenotypic variations in disjunct populations of highly polyploid Betula davurica in the Japanese Archipelago with continental populations in a region of northeast Asia

Plant Species Biology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 439-451, September 2025.
Betula davurica is widely distributed in continental regions of northeast Asia but is disjunctly distributed in the Japanese Archipelago. Disjunct Honshu populations are genetically divergent from continental populations in a continuously distributed region in Primorye although disjunct Hokkaido populations are not divergent. These disjunct populations

Resolving taxa in a challenging orchid species complex using evidence from phylogenetics, morphometrics and floral scent chemistry

TAXON, Volume 74, Issue 4, Page 787-804, August 2025.
Abstract Species can be difficult to circumscribe using morphology alone, and additional data can thus be useful for resolving challenging species complexes. Here we provide a case study of a South African orchid species complex which we resolved by analysing morphology, floral scent chemistry and molecular data.

Molecular adaptation during adaptive radiation in the Hawaiian endemic genus Schiedea. [PDF]

BACKGROUND: "Explosive" adaptive radiations on islands remain one of the most puzzling evolutionary phenomena. The rate of phenotypic and ecological adaptations is extremely fast during such events, suggesting that many genes may be under fairly strong ...

Phylogeny and Historical Ecology of Rhodocoma (Restionaceae) from the Cape Floristic Region [PDF]

, 2007
A macroevolutionary analysis of macroecological relationships in Rhodocoma revealed a complex history of rapid ecological divergence, as well as genetic isolation via shifts in flowering times.
