TL;DR: This investigation of the evolutionary routes to endemism on the 4,095-metre-high Mount Kinabalu in Sabah, East Malaysia finds that most of its unique biodiversity is younger than the mountain itself, and comprises a mix of immigrant pre-adapted lineages and descendants from local lowland ancestors, although substantial shifts from lower to higher vegetation zones in this latter group were rare.

TL;DR: Bayesian phylogenetic analyses of Hedyotis are presented using plastid and nuclear sequence data to resolve monophyletic lineages, to test former taxonomic hypotheses, and to revise the taxa within a well-supported evolutionary framework.

TL;DR: The present study focuses on Asian-Pacific taxa from these groups and aims at resolving taxonomic inconsistencies by describing monophyletic genera within the Hedyotis-Oldenlandia complex.

TL;DR: This work focuses on measuring information about tree topology using marginal posterior distributions of tree topologies and shows that both the accuracy and the computational efficiency of topological information content estimation improve with use of the conditional clade distribution, which also allows topological Information content to be partitioned by clade.

TL;DR: The three major woody clades in Spermacoceae have gained their woodiness independently from one another, subsequent to colonization by their ancestors from a different geographic environment.
