… It has long been recognized that a plant’s GS has implications for many aspects of its
biology through its impact on size and rate-related traits at the nuclear, cellular and whole plant …

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 …

Abstract Knowledge of the complete genomic DNA sequence of an organism allows a systematic
approach to defining its genetic components. The genomic sequence provides access …

The human X chromosome has a unique biology that was shaped by its evolution as the sex
chromosome shared by males and females. We have determined 99.3% of the euchromatic …

High-throughput DNA sequencing (HTS) presents great opportunities for plant systematics,
yet genomic complexity needs to be reduced for HTS to be effectively applied. We highlight …

Sequencing of target-enriched libraries is an efficient and cost-effective method for obtaining
DNA sequence data from hundreds of nuclear loci for phylogeny reconstruction. Much of …

The tree of life is the fundamental biological roadmap for navigating the evolution and properties
of life on Earth, and yet remains largely unknown. Even angiosperms (flowering plants) …

Mitochondrial genome sequences are important markers for phylogenetics but taxon
sampling remains sporadic because of the great effort and cost required to acquire full-length …

The world’s herbaria collectively house millions of diverse plant specimens, including
endangered or extinct species and type specimens. Unlocking genetic data from the typically …

Mitochondrial genomes are readily sequenced with recent technology and thus evolutionary
lineages can be densely sampled. This permits better phylogenetic estimates and …
