DNA barcoding of the genus Verbascum (Scrophulariaceae) in the Arabian Peninsula.
and are members of the family Scrophulariaceae. The first genus comprises approximately 360 species from almost all parts of the world, while the second contains a total of 8 species from tropical Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. Since 1977, the relationships between and continue to be contested. The present study...Alzahrani, Ali Mohammed ; Magos Brehm, Joana ; Ghazanfar, Shahina A. ; Maxted, Nigel

Repeated upslope biome shifts in Saxifraga during late-Cenozoic climate cooling.
Mountains are among the most biodiverse places on Earth, and plant lineages that inhabit them have some of the highest speciation rates ever recorded. Plant diversity within the alpine zone - the elevation above which trees cannot grow—contributes significantly to overall diversity within mountain systems, but the origins of alpine... -

Precipitation is the main axis of tropical plant phylogenetic turnover across space and time.
Early natural historians—Comte de Buffon, von Humboldt, and De Candolle—established environment and geography as two principal axes determining the distribution of groups of organisms, laying the foundations for biogeography over the subsequent 200 years, yet the relative importance of these two axes remains unresolved. Leveraging phylogenomic and global species distribution... -

Landscape dynamics and diversification of the megadiverse South American freshwater fish fauna.
Landscape dynamics are widely thought to govern the tempo and mode of continental radiations, yet the effects of river network rearrangements on dispersal and lineage diversification remain poorly understood. We integrated an unprecedented occurrence dataset of 4,967 species with a newly compiled, time-calibrated phylogeny of South American freshwater fishes—the most... -

Barking up the wrong tree: the dangers of taxonomic misidentification in molecular phylogenetic studies.
– is a Brazilian endemic genus that has sat uncomfortably in Convolvulaceae where it was placed due to an enlarged and adnate fruit bract typical of . A recent molecular phylogeny suggested that two of its five morphologically almost identical species actually belong to two different families, Malpighiaceae (superrosids) and... -

Herbarium specimen sequencing allows precise dating of Xanthomonas citri pv. citri diversification history.
Herbarium collections are an important source of dated, identified and preserved DNA, whose use in comparative genomics and phylogeography can shed light on the emergence and evolutionary history of plant pathogens. Here, we reconstruct 13 historical genomes of the bacterial crop pathogen pv. ( ) from infected herbarium specimens. Following... -
