Angiosperms (flowering plants) are the most diverse of all major lineages of land plants and
the dominant autotrophs in most terrestrial ecosystems. Their evolutionary and ecological …

Recent advances in molecular phylogenetics and a series of important palaeobotanical
discoveries have revolutionized our understanding of angiosperm diversification. Yet, the …

Phylogenetic relationships in Rosaceae have long been problematic because of frequent
hybridisation, apomixis and presumed rapid radiation, and their historical diversification has …

Here we present the genome sequence and annotation of the wild olive tree (Olea europaea
var. sylvestris), called oleaster, which is considered an ancestor of cultivated olive trees …

Explosive diversification is widespread in eukaryotes, making it difficult to resolve
phylogenetic relationships. Eudicots contain c. 75% of extant flowering plants, are important …

A salient feature of flowering plant diversification is the emergence of a novel suite of floral
features coinciding with the origin of the most species-rich lineage, Pentapetalae. Advances …

The evolutionary timescale of angiosperms has long been a key question in biology.
Molecular estimates of this timescale have shown considerable variation, being influenced …

Pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) is a perennial fruit crop grown since ancient times that
has been planted worldwide and is known for its functional metabolites, particularly …

Juglans L.(walnuts and butternuts) is an economically and ecologically important genus in
the family Juglandaceae. All Juglans are important nut and timber trees. Juglans regia …
