The history of long‐branch attraction, and in particular methods suggested to detect and
avoid the artifact to date, is reviewed. Methods suggested to avoid LBA‐artifacts include …

Land plants exhibit a significant evolutionary plasticity in their mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA),
which contrasts with the more conservative evolution of their chloroplast genomes. Frequent …

This is a combination of a review and original data on floral structure, development, and
biology of representatives of all families of the ANITA grade and, in addition …

An angiosperm phylogeny was reconstructed in a maximum likelihood analysis of
sequences of four mitochondrial genes, atp1, matR, nad5, and rps3, from 380 species that …

In the context of exponential growing molecular databases, it becomes increasingly easy to
assemble large multigene data sets for phylogenomic studies. The expected increase of …

The outgroup method is widely used to root phylogenetic trees. An accurate root indication,
however, strongly depends on the availability of a proper outgroup. An alternate rooting …

Most recent phylogenetic analyses of basal angiosperms have converged on the placement
of Amborella as sister to all other extant angiosperms. However, certain recent studies …

Nucleotide sequences of seven chloroplast (atpB and rbcL, SSU and LSU rDNAs),
mitochondrial (atp1, LSU rDNA), and nuclear (18S rDNA) genes from 192 land plants and …

We have determined the complete chloroplast genome sequences of four early-diverging
lineages of angiosperms, Buxus (Buxaceae), Chloranthus (Chloranthaceae), Dioscorea …

Phylogenetic rooting experiments demonstrate that two chloroplast genes from commelinoid
monocot taxa that represent the closest living relatives of the pickerelweed family …
