In the five years since the publication of Molecular Systematics of Plants, the field of
molecular systematics has advanced at an astonishing pace. This period has been marked …

A diverse array of molecular approaches is now available to the plant systematist for use in
phylogenetic inference, including restriction site analysis, comparative sequencing, analysis …

In less than a decade, the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has evolved into the common
denominator of molecular biology for nucleic acid research. The most important impact of …

During the past decade, the tools of molecular biology have been applied to plant
systematics with remarkable success. New insights have been gained into such topics as …

The field of systematic biology has been revitalized and transformed during the last few
decades by the confluence of phylogenetic thinking with ready access to the tools of …

With increasing frequency, systematic and evolutionary biologists have turned to the
techniques of molecular biology to complement their traditional morphological and …

The increasing speed and decreasing cost of generating DNA sequence data has
transformed experimental approaches in many fields of biology. In this review we describe …

Next‐generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutionized molecular systematics as well as
population and conservation genetics. It is now possible to obtain enormous amounts of …

Systematic biology studies the organization and origin of biological diversity. Systematists
analyze patterns of variation among the products of evolution (species) and attempt to infer …

This volume examines how data from proteins and nucleic acids can contribute to the study
of plant evolution. The subject is covered by 17 chapters: newline˜(1) Structure of …
