Plastome phylogenomics in the genus Pinus using massively parallel sequencing technology

Creator:

Parks, Matthew Benjamin

Abstract:

This thesis summarizes work completed over the previous four years primarily focusing on chloroplast phylogenomic inquiry into the genus Pinus and related Pinaceae outgroups using next-generation sequencing on Illumina platforms. During the time of our work, Illumina sequence read lengths have essentially been limited to 25 to 100 base pairs,...

Phylogenetics and genomic patterns of speciation in Pinus with an empahsis on subgenus Strobus

Creator:

Syring, John V.

Abstract:

Data from nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer regions (nrITS) and chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) have failed to resolve phylogenetic relationships in Pinus. To provide greater interspecific resolution, five low-copy nuclear genes were developed from mapped conifer anchor loci. Four genes were sequenced from species representing all Pinus subsections. Individual loci do...

New perspectives on evolutionary relationships within Pinus (Pinaceae) and within subsection Ponderosae (subgenus Pinus)

Creator:

Willyard, Ann Nachreiner

Abstract:

A fossil-calibrated phylogenetic framework based on exemplars from each of the four taxonomic sections within Pinus was created using multiple nuclear and chloroplast loci. Calibration at the well-defined subgeneric split within Pinus with either fossil leaves and cones (ca. 45 million years ago) or fossil wood (ca. 85 million years...
