Taxonomic characterisation of the Regianum clade (genus Tuber) and the trait evolution of spore size among true truffles.
The genus comprises ectomycorrhizal fungal species producing belowground ascomata, including the gastronomically most prominent hypogeous fungi. Since the discovery and description of new species are ongoing, the proportion of undescribed species can be considerable and the taxonomy of the genus goes often through changes. The taxonomy of the genus would... -

The genus Fomitopsis (Polyporales, Basidiomycota) reconsidered.
Based on seven- and three-gene datasets, we discuss four alternative approaches for a reclassification of ( , ). After taking into account morphological diversity in the family, we argue in favour of distinguishing three genera only, , and . becomes a large genus with 128 accepted species, containing almost all...Spirin, V. ; Runnel, K. ; Vlasák, J. ; Viner, I. ; Barrett, M.

An integrative approach to species delimitation sinks three Chinese limestone karst Elatostema (Urticaceae) species.
is recognized as a taxonomically difficult group due to the reduced nature of the tiny flowers and inflorescences, also the large number of species (ca 650 to 700). Different opinions on morphological species delimitation have resulted in instability, which is problematic in such a speciose group. In this paper, the... -

Phylogenomic inference of the African tribe Monodoreae (Annonaceae) and taxonomic revision of Dennettia, Uvariodendron and Uvariopsis.
Monodoreae (Annonaceae) is a tribe composed of 11 genera and 90 species restricted to the tropical African rain forests. All the genera are taxonomically well circumscribed except the species rich genera and which lack a recent taxonomic revision. Here, we used a robust phylogenomic approach, including all the 90 currently... -

Online tree expansion could help solve the problem of scalability in Bayesian phylogenetics.
Bayesian phylogenetics is now facing a critical point. Over the last 20 years, Bayesian methods have reshaped phylogenetic inference and gained widespread popularity due to their high accuracy, the ability to quantify the uncertainty of inferences and the possibility of accommodating multiple aspects of evolutionary processes in the models that...Truszkowski, Jakub ; Perrigo, Allison ; Broman, David ; Ronquist, Fredrik ; Antonelli, Alexandre

Revision of Guarea (Meliaceae).
The species of Guarea F.Allam. ex L. (Meliaceae) are revised. Sixty-nine species are recognised, a key to the species is provided, all names are typified and descriptions of all species are given. A phylogenetic analysis based on ITS sequence data is discussed. Six new species and one new subspecies are...Pennington, T. D. ; Clarkson, J. J.

Phylogenetic relationships and biogeography of Asia Callicarpa (Lamiaceae), with consideration of a long-distance dispersal across the Pacific Ocean —insights into divergence modes of pantropical flora.
There are about 140 species of L. 1753 (Lamiaceae), with more species richness in tropical to subtropical Asia and the New World. The genus might provide an insight into the amphi-Pacific disjunction pattern of tropical and subtropical vegetation. This study has greatly improved the phylogenetic underpinning for , derived from...Cai, Huimin ; Liu, Xing ; Wang, Wenqiao ; Ma, Zhonghui ; Li, Bo …
