DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.1440
Abstract: PREMISE Perhaps the most rapid period of vascular plant evolution occurred during the Silurian-Devonian time interval. Yet, few quantitative analyses have established the extent to which anatomical, morphological, or reproductive features contributed to this episode… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/arch.21889
Abstract: The subfamily Bombycinae Latreille, [1802] is an important silk-producing group, including well-known economical insects. Although there are many studies on the development of these economic insects, the relationships between genera/species of this subfamily are still… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8039
Abstract: Abstract Traits of organisms are shaped by their living environments and also determined in part by their phylogenetic relationships. For example, phylogenetic relationships often affect the geographic distributions of animals and cause variation in their… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9205
Abstract: Abstract Recovering phylogenetic relationships in lineages experiencing intense diversification has always been a persistent challenge in evolutionary studies, including in Gentiana section Chondrophyllae sensu lato (s.l.). Indeed, this subcosmopolitan taxon encompasses more than 180 mostly… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10709-021-00116-8
Abstract: Silversides are a widely distributed group across South America, with several species occupying marine, freshwater and estuarine environments. Several authors suggest main transitions among these environments took place during Pleistocene, and were accompanied with rapid… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.funbio.2017.07.004
Abstract: Phylogenetic analyses using internal transcribed spacer (ITS), large subunit rRNA (LSU), and small subunit (SSU) sequence data showed that Harzia, Chlamydomyces, and Olpitrichum are con-generic. Thus, Chlamydomyces, and Olpitrichum were reduced to synonymy of Harzia.… read more here.
