… Our divergence time estimates (11) suggest that crown group ants last shared a common
ancestor during the Early Cretaceous to Middle Jurassic: 140 ± 8.0 million years ago (Ma) (…

… multigene data sets have strong potential to enhance resolution and internal support in deep
level angiosperm phylogenetics and provide additional insights into angiosperm evolution. …

… The first three branches, which diverge below the vast majority of angiosperms, are Amborella

relation to key functional traits. Previous studies have shown that angiosperm … a phylogeny of …

… In 1998, the first Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (APG) classification of the orders and
