Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogeny and classification of Rosaceae

TL;DR: Strong support for monophyly of groups corresponding closely to many previously recognized tribes and subfamilies is found, but no previous classification was entirely supported, and relationships among the strongly supported clades were weakly resolved and/or conflicted between some data sets.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chloroplast gene sequence data suggest a single origin of the predisposition for symbiotic nitrogen fixation in angiosperms.

TL;DR: It is indicated that only one lineage of closely related taxa achieved the underlying genetic architecture necessary for symbiotic nitrogen fixation in root nodules.
Journal ArticleDOI

Systematic and evolutionary implications of rbcL sequence variation in Rosaceae

TL;DR: RbcL-based phylogenies suggest that chromosome numbers are more reliable indicators of some generic alliances than the more commonly used fruit types and that the subfamily Maloideae may have descended from spiraeoid ancestors and the pome is derived from follicular or capsular fruit types.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogenetic relationships among members of Saxifragaceae sensu lato based on rbcL sequence data

TL;DR: In an attempt to elucidate relationships among the morphologically diverse members of Saxifragaceae sensu lato, phylogenetic analyses of rbcL sequence data were conducted on representative genera of 16 of the 17 subfamilies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogeny of subtribe Pyrinae (formerly the Maloideae, Rosaceae): Limited resolution of a complex evolutionary history

TL;DR: Generic relationships in the Pyrinae (equivalent to subfamily Maloideae) were assessed with six chloroplast regions and five nuclear regions, and 12 non-molecular characters onto molecular phylogenies were plotted.
