متن کاملAngiosperm phylogeny: 17 genes, 640 taxa.
PREMISE OF THE STUDY Recent analyses employing up to five genes have provided numerous insights into angiosperm phylogeny, but many relationships have remained unresolved or poorly supported. In the hope of improving our understanding of angiosperm phylogeny, we expanded sampling of taxa and genes beyond previous analyses. METHODS We conducted two primary analyses based on 640 species represe...
متن کاملUtility of 17 chloroplast genes for inferring the phylogeny of the basal angiosperms.
Sequences from 14 slowly evolving chloroplast genes (including three highly conserved introns) were obtained for representative basal angiosperm and seed-plant taxa, using novel primers described here. These data were combined with published sequences from atpB, rbcL, and newly obtained sequences from ndhF. Combined data from these 17 genes permit sturdy, well-resolved inference of major aspect...
متن کاملSelection of medicinal plants - Evolutionary considerations for Ethnopharmacology and drug discovery
Biological diversity is evidence for chemical diversity. Secondary metabolites are adaptive traits, similar within members of a taxon and occasionally also between taxa exposed to similar ecological selection pressures. Chemo diversity is thus not distributed evenly across plant biodiversity. But how are biodiversity, drug discovery, traditional medicines and ethno pharmacology related? Only 62...
متن کاملReinvestigation of Leaf Rank, an Underappreciated Component of Leo Hickey’s Legacy
The widespread recognition of the scientific importance of leaf architecture, the description and interpretation of leaf shape and venation, is a cornerstone contribution of Leo Hickey’s career. One leaf architectural trait that Hickey developed is leaf rank, which describes the level of organization of leaf venation in a single, discrete, ordinal variable. He used this scoring system to provid...
