Chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) variability and phylogeny were
studied via analysis of restriction site mutations and DNA
sequencing in a complex of three closely related species of
pines: Pinus radiata D. Don, P. attenuata Lemm., and
muricata D. Don. Genomic DNA from 384 trees representing
20 populations in the complex were...
North America, with over 400 species of Astragalus (Fabaceae), is one of three major centers of diversity, all of which comprise the majority of the nearly 1750 species of Astragalus worldwide. One of the most diverse species, Astragalus lentiginosus of Section Diphysi, is a polymorphic complex of over 40 varieties,...
The relative role of cospeciation and host switching in the phylogenetic history of
ascomycete foliar symbionts is addressed in the orders Leotiales and Rhytismatales, fungi
associated predominantly with Pinaceae (Coniferales). Emphasis is placed on comparing
the evolution of the sister genera Pseudotsuga and Larix (Pinaceae) with that of the
pathogenic...
This dataset is available as supplement for a research article submitted in 2018 and accepted in 2019. Genomic resources for the Neotropical tree genus Cedrela (Meliaceae) and its relatives. By Kristen N. Finch, B.A.; F. Andrew Jones, Ph.D.; Richard Cronn, Ph.D.
Tree species in the genus Cedrela are threatened by...
Plantago ovata Forssk. (Plantaginaceae) is a winter annual species which, in North America, inhabits desert and Mediterranean habitats of the southwest United States, northwest Mexico and the Channel Islands of California and Mexico. In the eastern hemisphere P. ovata inhabits desert regions ranging from the Canary Islands, across northern Africa...
