Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic Structure and Molecular Variability of Cucumber mosaic virus Isolates in the United States

TL;DR: Sequence and phylogenetic analyses revealed that CMV subgroup I is predominant in the US and further showed that the CMV population is a mixture of subgroups IA and IB, which suggest that different regions of theCMV genome are under different evolutionary constraints.
Journal ArticleDOI

Force of habit: shrubs, trees and contingent evolution of wood anatomical diversity using Croton (Euphorbiaceae) as a model system.

TL;DR: Novel putatively functional trait associations are hypothesized in woody plant structure that could be further tested in a variety of other taxa, and the interplay between habit, habitat and wood anatomical diversity was dissected in the genus Croton.
Journal ArticleDOI

Three New Species of Mormolyca (Orchidaceae: Maxillariinae) with an Updated Molecular Phylogenetic Analysis

TL;DR: Phylogenetic analyses confirm the monophyly of Mormolyca and clarify relationships within the genus: an early divergent paraphyletic grade of species diverging from the line leading to a major clade of two distinctive subclades.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular phylogenetics of mormolyca (orchidaceae: maxillariinae) based on combined molecular data sets

TL;DR: A first glimpse into the phylogeny of a small group of epiphytic orchids characterized by an unusually high level of variable vegetative characters, floral fragrance profiles, and pollination systems is offered.
