Widespread paleopolyploidy, gene tree conflict, and recalcitrant relationships among the carnivorous Caryophyllales
PREMISE OF STUDY: The carnivorous members of the large, hyperdiverse Caryophyllales
(eg, Venus flytrap, sundews, and Nepenthes pitcher plants) represent perhaps the oldest …

Improved transcriptome sampling pinpoints 26 ancient and more recent polyploidy events in Caryophyllales, including two allopolyploidy events
Studies of the macroevolutionary legacy of polyploidy are limited by an incomplete sampling
of these events across the tree of life. To better locate and understand these events, we …

From cacti to carnivores: Improved phylotranscriptomic sampling and hierarchical homology inference provide further insight into the evolution of Caryophyllales
Premise of the Study The Caryophyllales contain~ 12,500 species and are known for their
cosmopolitan distribution, convergence of trait evolution, and extreme adaptations. Some …

Dissecting molecular evolution in the highly diverse plant clade Caryophyllales using transcriptome sequencing
Many phylogenomic studies based on transcriptomes have been limited to “single-copy”
genes due to methodological challenges in homology and orthology inferences. Only a …
