Journal ArticleDOI
A taxonomic backbone for the global synthesis of species diversity in the angiosperm order Caryophyllales
Patricia Hernández-Ledesma,Walter G. Berendsohn,Thomas Borsch,Sabine von Mering,Hossein Akhani,Salvador Arias,Idelfonso Castañeda-Noa,Urs Eggli,Roger Eriksson,Hilda Flores-Olvera,Susy Fuentes-Bazan,Gudrun Kadereit,Cornelia Klak,Nadja Korotkova,Reto Nyffeler,Gilberto Ocampo,Helga Ochoterena,Bengt Oxelman,Richard K. Rabeler,Adriana Sanchez,Boris O. Schlumpberger,Pertti Uotila +21 more
TL;DR: A taxonomic backbone at the genus level is provided that reflects the current state of knowledge and accepts 749 genera for the Caryophyllales, a major lineage of flowering plants with approximately 12500 species in 39 families.
Journal ArticleDOI
What does it take to resolve relationships and to identify species with molecular markers? An example from the epiphytic Rhipsalideae (Cactaceae)
Nadja Korotkova,Thomas Borsch,Dietmar Quandt,Nigel P. Taylor,Kai F. Müller,Wilhelm Barthlott +5 more
TL;DR: The phylogenetic performance of a marker is not determined by the level of sequence variability, and species discrimination power does not necessarily correlate with phylogenetic utility.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phylogeny of the eudicot order Malpighiales: analysis of a recalcitrant clade with sequences of the petD group II intron
Nadja Korotkova,Julio V. Schneider,Dietmar Quandt,Dietmar Quandt,Andreas Worberg,Georg Zizka,Thomas Borsch,Thomas Borsch +7 more
TL;DR: For the first time a deep node of the Malpighiales backbone, a clade comprising Achariaceae, Violaceae, Malesherbiaceae, Turneraceae, Passifloraceae, and a Lacistemataceae–Salicaceae lineage received significant statistical support from plastid DNA sequences.
Journal ArticleDOI
The petD group II intron as a species level marker: utility for tree inference and species identification in the diverse genus Campanula (Campanulaceae)
TL;DR: Considering the ease of amplification and sequencing, and its high information content, the petD intron appears to be a good candidate in a two-tailed approach integrating molecular phylogenetics and species identification in the needed sampling of all core Campanuloideae species.
Journal ArticleDOI
A torch in the rain forest: thermogenesis of the Titan arum (Amorphophallus titanum).
TL;DR: It is assumed that Amorphophallus titanum is able to overcome thermodynamic decoupling by a self-produced convective process and lead to a unique type of 'convection flower'.
