TL;DR: The results suggest that the Angiosperms353 probe set described here is effective for any group of flowering plants and would be useful for phylogenetic studies from the species level to higher-order groups, including the entire angiosperm clade itself.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genome Size Diversity and Its Impact on the Evolution of Land Plants.
TL;DR: An overview of the current understanding of genome size diversity across the different land plant groups, its implications on the biology of the genome and what future directions need to be addressed to fill key knowledge gaps is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Why barcode? High-throughput multiplex sequencing of mitochondrial genomes for molecular systematics
Martijn J. T. N. Timmermans,Steven Dodsworth,C. L. Culverwell,L. Bocak,Dirk Ahrens,D. T. J. Littlewood,Joan Pons,Alfried P. Vogler +7 more
TL;DR: The 454/Roche platform procedure could be employed routinely for mitochondrial genome sequencing at the species level, to provide improved species ‘barcodes’ that currently use the cox1 gene only.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genome skimming for next-generation biodiversity analysis.
TL;DR: High-throughput sequencing technologies have revolutionised the ease with which genomic data can be obtained for any plant species, from trees to bryophytes, regardless of phylogenetic proximity to model species or even the ease of cultivation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Family-level sampling of mitochondrial genomes in coleoptera: compositional heterogeneity and phylogenetics
Martijn J. T. N. Timmermans,Martijn J. T. N. Timmermans,Martijn J. T. N. Timmermans,Christopher Barton,Julien Haran,Julien Haran,Dirk Ahrens,C. Lorna Culverwell,C.

TL;DR: The study shows that, although compositional heterogeneity is not universal, it cannot be eliminated for some mitochondrial genes, but dense taxon sampling and the use of appropriate Bayesian analyses can still produce robust phylogenetic trees.
