Evolutionary history, traits, and weediness in Digitaria (Poaceae: Panicoideae).
Digitaria is a large pantropical genus, which includes a number of economically problematic agricultural weeds. Difficulties in species identification and the circumscription of the genus have previously hindered progress in understanding its evolution and developing a stable classification. We investigate the evolutionary history of Digitaria by combining two approaches: (i)... -

A Comprehensive Phylogenomic Platform for Exploring the Angiosperm Tree of Life.
The tree of life is the fundamental biological roadmap for navigating the evolution and properties of life on Earth, and yet remains largely unknown. Even angiosperms (flowering plants) are fraught with data gaps, despite their critical role in sustaining terrestrial life. Today, high-throughput sequencing promises to significantly deepen our understanding... -

A Bird’s Eye View of the Systematics of Convolvulaceae: Novel Insights From Nuclear Genomic Data.
Convolvulaceae is a family of c. 2,000 species, distributed across 60 currently recognized genera. It includes species of high economic importance, such as the crop sweet potato ( L.), the ornamental morning glories ( L.), bindweeds ( L.), and dodders, the parasitic vines ( L.). Earlier phylogenetic studies, based predominantly...Simões, Ana Rita G. ; Eserman, Lauren A. ; Zuntini, Alexandre R. ; Chatrou, Lars W. ; Utteridge, Timothy M. A. …

Combination of Sanger and target-enrichment markers supports revised generic delimitation in the problematic ‘Urera clade’ of the nettle family (Urticaceae)
Urera Gaudich, s.l. is a pantropical genus comprising c. 35 species of trees, shrubs, and vines. It has a long history of taxonomic uncertainty, and is repeatedly recovered as polyphyletic within a poorly resolved complex of genera in the Urticeae tribe of the nettle family (Urticaceae). To provide generic delimitations...Wells, Tom ; Maurin, Olivier ; Dodsworth, Steven ; Friis, Ib ; Cowan, Robyn …
