Repeated shifts out of tropical climates preceded by whole genome duplication
Climate can constrain the distribution of biological diversity. However, at certain points in history flowering plants have overcome climatic constraints on their distribution,... -
phylotranscriptomic analysis of Caryophyllales
Goal is to find the evolutionary relationships of the hypediverse Caryophyllales (cacti, venus flytrap, beets). This plant group contains many instances of convergence (e.g. C4... -
Stranded transcriptome sequencing from 43 species across the plant order Cary...
• Studies of the macroevolutionary legacy of paleopolyploidy are limited by an incomplete sampling of these events across the tree of life. To better locate and understand these...
