Origin of angiosperms and the puzzle of the Jurassic gap
Angiosperms are by far the most species-rich clade of land plants, but their origin and early evolutionary history remain poorly understood. We reconstructed angiosperm phylogeny based on 80 genes from 2,881 plastid genomes representing 85% of extant families and all orders. With a well-resolved plastid tree and 62 fossil calibrations, we dated the...Li, Hong-Tao ; Yi, Ting-Shuang ; Gao, Lian-Ming ; Ma, Peng-Fei ; Zhang, Ting …
