Molecular phylogeny of Cucumis species as revealed by consensus chloroplast SSR marker length and sequence variation.
TLDR
Combined evidence from previously published studies and data presented herein lend support to the hypothesis that C. hystrix is either a progenitor species of C. sativus or that they at least share a common ancestral lineage.Abstract:
To investigate phylogenetic relationships in the genus Cucumis, 9 consensus chloroplast simple sequence repeat (ccSSR) primer pairs (ccSSR3, 9, 11, 13, 14, 17, 20, 21, and 23) were employed for DNA...read more

TL;DR: The development of highly polymorphic simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers originated from whole genome shotgun sequencing and the subsequent construction of a high-density genetic linkage map will facilitate whole genome sequencing, positional cloning, and molecular breeding in cucumber, and enable the integration of knowledge of gene and trait in cucurbits.

Phylogenetics of Cucumis (Cucurbitaceae): Cucumber (C. sativus) belongs in an Asian/Australian clade far from melon (C. melo)
TL;DR: It is concluded that Cucumis comprises an old Australian/Asian component that was heretofore unsuspected and is phylogenetically far more distant from C. melo than implied by the current morphological classification.

Microsatellite Markers in Plants and Insects. Part I: Applications of Biotechnology
TL;DR: Genetic synteny and SSR sequence conservation have not only provided maximum annotated information for model plants and insects, but have demonstrated cross-species/genera transferability, which is indicative of long evolutionary history.

Molecular Evolutionary Genetics
TL;DR: Recent developments of statistical methods in molecular phylogenetics are reviewed and it is shown that the mathematical foundations of these methods are not well established, but computer simulations and empirical data indicate that currently used methods produce reasonably good phylogenetic trees when a sufficiently large number of nucleotides or amino acids are used.

Conflict between nuclear and mitochondrial DNA phylogenies of a recent species radiation: What mtDNA reveals and conceals about modes of speciation in Hawaiian crickets
TL;DR: The nDNA phylogeny corroborates the hypothesis of allopatric divergence and multiple invasions, and when compared with mtDNA patterns, suggests that interspecific hybridization is a persistent feature of the history of Laupala.
