Fossil data support a pre-Cretaceous origin of flowering plants
Flowering plants (angiosperms) are the most diverse of all land plants, becoming abundant in the Cretaceous and achieving dominance in the Cenozoic. However, the exact timing of their origin remains a controversial topic, with molecular clocks generally placing their origin much further back in time than the oldest unequivocal fossils....Silvestro, Daniele ; Bacon, Christine D. ; Ding, Wenna ; Zhang, Qiuyue ; Donoghue, Philip C.

Evolutionary history of CAM photosynthesis in Neotropical Clusia : insights from genomics, anatomy, physiology and climate.
Clusia is a remarkable genus of Neotropical woody plants as its members engage in either C3 photosynthesis or employ, to varying degrees, crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) photosynthesis. Information about the evolutionary history of CAM in Clusia is scarce. Restriction site-associated sequencing of 64 species (20% of the genus) provided strong... -

Nuclear–plastid discordance indicates past introgression in Epidendrum species (Laeliinae: Orchidaceae) with highly variable chromosome numbers.
Here we study a challenging group of karyotypically highly variable Epidendrum spp. using phylogenetic methods to help understand how hybridization/introgression contributes to karyotype evolution. We hypothesize that species with great chromosome number variation are a result of past hybridization/introgression. Conflicting topologies in trees constructed using separate plastid and nuclear datasets...
