Conservation genetics and biogeography of the Caribbean pine (Pinus caribaea var. bahamensis) in the Bahaman archipelago.
The Bahaman archipelago contains large expanses of pine forests, where the endemic Caribbean pine Pinus caribaea var. bahamensis is the dominant species. This pine forest ecosystem is rich in species and also a valuable resource for the local economy. Small areas of old-growth forest still remain in the Turks and...Sanchez, Michele

Phylogenetics, genome size evolution and population genetics of slipper orchids in the subfamily Cypripedioideae (Orchidaceae).
Slipper orchids (subfamily Cypripedioideae) comprise five genera; Paphiopedilum, Cypripedium, Phragmipedium, Selenipedium, and Mexipedium. Phylogenetic relationships of the genus Paphiopedilum, were studied using nuclear ribosomal ITS and plastid sequence data. The results confirm that Paphiopedilum is monophyletic and support the division of the genus into three subgenera Parvisepalum, Brachypetalum and Paphiopedilum....Chochai, Araya

Doctoral thesis
Molecular and Genome Evolution in the Malesian Slipper Orchids (Paphiopedilum section Barbata).
Paphiopedilum section Barbata (Cypripedioideae: Orchidaceae) is an evolutionarily young and charismatic group of terrestrial orchids native to the Himalayas, Indochina and Malesia. It contains several interesting species complexes, variable chromosome numbers (2n=28-42) and genome sizes (2C=55-70 pg) with hybrid speciation suspected on the basis of morphological data. In Chapter 1,...Yap, Jing Wei
