Phylogenetic analyses of Begonia sect. Coelocentrum and allied limestone species of China shed light on the evolution of Sino-Vietnamese karst flora

TL;DR: It is proposed that extensive and continuous karstification of the Sino-Vietnamese limestone region facilitated by the onset of East Asian monsoon since the late Miocene has been the major driving force for species accumulation via geographic isolation in Clade SVLB.
Journal Article

Universal primers for amplification and sequencing a noncoding spacer between the atpB and rbcL genes of chloroplast DNA

TL;DR: An evolutionary trend of increasing spacer size from liverworts, through mosses, to vascular plants is indicated and this atpB-rbcL spacer is AT-rich, consistent with other chloroplast noncoding spacers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Natural foliar variegation without costs? The case of Begonia

TL;DR: Variegation in these Begonia is structural, where light areas are created by internal reflection between air spaces and cells in a leaf, and two forms of air space structural variegation occur.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chloroplast DNA phylogeography of Cunninghamia konishii (Cupressaceae), an endemic conifer of Taiwan

TL;DR: The phylogeographic pattern shown in the reconstructed network suggests that the present-day Cunninghamia populations in Taiwan were derived from six different sources in continental Asia via long-distance seed dispersal.
