Evolution and biogeography of gymnosperms
XQ Wang, JH Ran - Molecular phylogenetics and evolution, 2014 - Elsevier
Living gymnosperms comprise only a little more than 1000 species, but represent four of the
five main lineages of seed plants, including cycads, ginkgos, gnetophytes and conifers. This …

Decoding the massive genome of loblolly pine using haploid DNA and novel assembly strategies
Background The size and complexity of conifer genomes has, until now, prevented full
genome sequencing and assembly. The large research community and economic …

Contrasting rates of molecular evolution and patterns of selection among gymnosperms and flowering plants
The majority of variation in rates of molecular evolution among seed plants remains both
unexplored and unexplained. Although some attention has been given to flowering plants …

Unique Features of the Loblolly Pine (Pinus taeda L.) Megagenome Revealed Through Sequence Annotation
The largest genus in the conifer family Pinaceae is Pinus, with over 100 species. The size
and complexity of their genomes (∼ 20–40 Gb, 2 n= 24) have delayed the arrival of a well …

Fire‐adapted traits of Pinus arose in the fiery Cretaceous
The mapping of functional traits onto chronograms is an emerging approach for the
identification of how agents of natural selection have shaped the evolution of organisms …
