Journal ArticleDOI
Angiosperm phylogeny inferred from 18S rDNA, rbcL, and atpB sequences
Douglas E. Soltis,Pamela S. Soltis,Mark W. Chase,Mark E. Mort,Dirk C. Albach,Michael J. Zanis,Vincent Savolainen,William H. Hahn,Sara B. Hoot,Michael F. Fay,Michael J. Axtell,Susan M. Swensen,Linda M. Prince,W. John Kress,Kevin C. Nixon,James S. Farris +15 more
TL;DR: A phylogenetic analysis of a combined data set for 560 angiosperms and seven outgroups based on three genes, 18S rDNA, rbcL, and atpB representing a total of 4733 bp is presented, resulting in the most highly resolved and strongly supported topology yet obtained for angiosPerms.
Journal Article
An ordinal classification for the families of flowering plants
Kåre Bremer,Mark W. Chase,Peter F. Stevens,Arne A. Anderberg,Anders Backlund,Birgitta Bremer,Barbara G. Briggs,Peter K. Endress,Michael F. Fay,Peter Goldblatt,Mat H. G. Gustafsson,Sara B. Hoot,Walter S. Judd,Mari Källersjö,Elizabeth A. Kellogg,Kathleen A. Kron,Donald H. Les,Cynthia M. Morton,Daniel L. Nickrent,Richard G. Olmstead,RA PRice,Christopher J. Quinn,JE Rodman +22 more
TL;DR: Recent cladistic analyses are revealing the phylogeny of flowering plants in increasing detail, and there is support for the monophyly of many major groups above the family level.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phylogenetics of Flowering Plants Based on Combined Analysis of Plastid atpB and rbcL Gene Sequences
Vincent Savolainen,Mark W. Chase,Sara B. Hoot,Cynthia M. Morton,Douglas E. Soltis,Clemens Bayer,Michael F. Fay,Anette Y. De Bruijn,Stuart Sullivan,Yin Long Qiu +9 more
TL;DR: A phylogenetic analysis of flowering plants based on a second plastid gene, atpB, analyzed separately and in combination with rbcL sequences for 357 taxa demonstrates that phylogenetics analysis of large matrices is feasible.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cross-species transfer of nuclear microsatellite markers: potential and limitations.
Thelma Barbará,Clarisse Palma-Silva,Gecele Matos Paggi,Fernanda Bered,Michael F. Fay,Christian Lexer +5 more
TL;DR: The potential for successful cross‐species transfer appears highest in species with long generation times, mixed or outcrossing breeding systems, and where genome size in the target species is small compared to the source.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phylogeny of the eudicots : a nearly complete familial analysis based on rbcL gene sequences
Vincent Savolainen,Michael F. Fay,Dirk C. Albach,Anders Backlund,M. Van der Bank,Kenneth M. Cameron,Sheila A. Johnson,Maria Dolores Lledó,J-C Pintaud,Martyn P. Powell,Mary C. Sheahan,Douglas E. Soltis,Pamela S. Soltis,Peter H. Weston,William Mark Whitten,Kenneth J. Wurdack,Mark W. Chase +16 more
TL;DR: A phylogenetic analysis of 589 plastid rbcL gene sequences representing nearly all eudicot families was performed, and bootstrap re-sampling was used to assess support for clades.
