Evolutionary patterns of genome size and chromosome number variation in Begoniaceae.
Cytological data resources are crucial to the study and understanding of the evolution of complex taxa. Recent research on the genus Begonia L. has provided a robust phylogenetic background for the analysis of evolutionary patterns across the group and has established that Begonia is variable in genome size and chromosome...Campos-Dominguez, Lucia ; Pellicer, Jaume ; Matthews, Andrew ; Leitch, Ilia J ; Kidner, Catherine A

Insights into the evolution of the chloroplast genome and the phylogeny of Begonia.
Begonia (Begoniaceae) is one of the largest angiosperm genera, comprising more than 2000 species; this makes it ideal as a model to investigate the genomic basis of species radiations. Here we present the results of the first genus-wide comparative study of plastid genome structure, sequence diversity, and phylogenetics of Begoniaceae,...
