Plastid matK gene sequences for 374 genera representing all angiosperm orders and 12
genera of gymnosperms were analyzed using parsimony (MP) and Bayesian inference (BI) …

• Premise of the study: Recent analyses employing up to five genes have provided
numerous insights into angiosperm phylogeny, but many relationships have remained …

DNA sequences of nine genes (plastid: atpB, matK, and rbcL; mitochondrial: atp1, matR,
mtSSU, and mtLSU; nuclear: 18S and 26S rDNAs) from 100 species of basal angiosperms …

A phylogenetic analysis of a combined data set for 560 angiosperms and seven outgroups
based on three genes, 18S rDNA (1855 bp), rbcL (1428 bp), and atpB (1450 bp) …

Phylogenetic relationships among many lineages of angiosperms have been clarified via
the analysis of large molecular data sets. However, with a data set of three genes (18S …

Using a compartmentalization approach, we conducted phylogenetic analyses of the
basalmost extant angiosperms using sequences from six genes (over 12,000 bp per taxon) …

Although great progress has been made in clarifying deep-level angiosperm relationships,
several early nodes in the angiosperm branch of the Tree of Life have proved difficult to …

Using matK and rbcL sequences (3,269 bp in total) from 113 genera of 45 families, we
conducted a combined analysis to contribute to the understanding of major evolutionary …

Angiosperms are the largest and most successful clade of land plants with> 250,000 species
distributed in nearly every terrestrial habitat. Many phylogenetic studies have been based on …

The prevailing view in molecular systematics is that relationships among distantly related
taxa should be inferred using DNA segments with low rates of evolution. However, recent …
