Tree of lifeInterfamilial relationshipsPlastomePPA IIFlowering plants (angiosperms) are dominant components of global terrestrial ecosystems, but phylogenetic relationships at the familial level and above remain only partially resolved, greatly impeding our full understanding of their evolution and early ...
The extinction risk of flowering plants in this region is primarily influenced by their divergence time, diversification rate, and weighted evolutionary distinctiveness. We find numerous relict plants in this region that belong to isolated lineages in the phylogenetic tree and are at high risk of ...
Angiosperms, or flowering plants, are by far the largest, most diverse, and most species-rich clade of green plants, with estimates of the number of species ranging from ~295,000 [1] to ~370,000 [2]. Traditionally, angiosperms were divided into two fundamental groups on the basis of coty...
Our genus-level angiosperm phylogenetic tree improves the phylogenetic resolution compared to family-level trees, henceforth, provides finer temporal resolution on the diversification history of angiosperms compared to previous studies conducted at the family-level or on smaller species-level trees and confi...
conservation of ancient (high phylogenetic diversity attributed to long branches), rich (5%-criterion hotspots of species richness), unique (high phylogenetic endemism or evolutionary distinctiveness and global endangerment), and vulnerable (minimum area required for threatened species) flowering plants. Eco...
We have carried out a computational experiment on analysis of 41 complete chloroplast genomes of flowering plants aimed at searching for a "lucky gene" for reconstruction of their phylogeny. It is shown that the phylogenetic tree inferred from a combination of translated nucleotide sequences of ...
Although the number distribution of SDG members in different plants and different families was different, the distribution trend was generally the same. Among the 7 families of A. thaliana, the number of SDGs in family IV accounted for the least and the number of SDGs in family V accounted ...

A phylogenetic tree was constructed for ID1-like proteins in rice and Brachypodium which form a distinct grass specific clade of the C2H2 proteins (Figure 7C). In Brachypodium Bradi3g26910 was identified as the closest equivalent by sequence and the presence of flanking genes. T...
(Avr) genes40. Among the sampled 13 genomes, SCT harbours the highest number ofRgenes among non-cultivated plants (Supplementary Fig.21). The phylogenetic tree constructed from 2,465 NBS domains also suggests that clades within the gene family have diversified independently within the eudicots, ...
