Phylogeny of Berberidaceae based on sequences of the chloroplast gene ndhF

TL;DR: The ndhF tree indicates strong support for the sister group relationship between the morphologically distinctive genus N andina and the Caulophyllum group, which provides additional evidence for retaining Nandina within Berberidaceae.
Journal ArticleDOI

The use of a non-coding region of chloroplast dna in phylogenetic studies of the subtribe sonchinae (asteraceae : lactuceae)

TL;DR: The results suggest that the non-coding region of chloroplast DNA betweenpsbA andtrnH(GUG) does not evolve rapidly enough to resolve relationships among closely related genera or insular endemics in the Asteraceae.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distance-Based Genome Rearrangement Phylogeny

TL;DR: This paper investigates how to estimate evolutionary histories from whole genomes with equal gene content using EDE, and presents a technique, the empirically derived estimator (EDE), that is developed for this purpose.
