• Premise: Bromeliaceae form a large, ecologically diverse family of angiosperms native to
the New World. We use a bromeliad phylogeny based on eight plastid regions to analyze …

Cladistic analysis of ndhF sequences identifies eight major bromeliad clades arranged in
ladderlike fashion. The traditional subfamilies Tillandsioideae and Bromelioideae are …

We present an integrative model predicting associations among epiphytism, the tank habit,
entangling seeds, C 3 vs. CAM photosynthesis, avian pollinators, life in fertile, moist …

Parsimony analysis of 31 sequences of the chloroplast locus ndhF was used to address
questions of subfamilial phylogeny in Bromeliaceae. Results presented here are congruent …

Cladistics, phenetics, and our understanding of chromosomal evolution were applied to
questions of the relationships and resemblances among the three subfamilies of the …

We developed a phylogeny of the core Bromelioideae including Aechmea and related
genera, with the specific goals of investigating the monophyly of Aechmea and its allied …

ABSTRACT A reconstruction of the phylogeny of Bromeliaceae based on sequence data
from three noncoding chloroplast DNA markers (trnL intron, trnT–trnL, and trnT–trnF …

Phylogenetic relationships within subfamily Bromelioideae (Bromeliaceae, Poales) were
inferred using DNA sequence data from the low-copy nuclear gene phosphoribulokinase …

Puya (Bromeliaceae), a large genus of terrestrial bromeliads found throughout a range of
elevations in the Andes and central Chile, is of great systematic, evolutionary, and …

The large Neotropical family Bromeliaceae presents an outstanding example of adaptive
radiation in plants, containing a wide range of terrestrial and epiphytic life-forms occupying …
