Abstract Pterocarya (Juglandaceae) is disjunctly distributed in East Asia and the Caucasus region today, but its fossils are widely Northern Hemisphere. We first inferred phylogeny with time estimation of under node‐dating (ND) based on plastomes all eight extant species tip‐dating (TD) 69 morphological characters 19 extinct species, respectively. compared biogeographical reconstructions timetrees from ND TD, respectively, then compiled 83 fossil records 599 current occurrences for predicting potential distributions past future. The most recent comment ancestor at 40.46 Ma (95% highest posterior density [HPD]: 28.04–54.86) TD 26.81 HPD: 23.03–33.12) ND. distribution was attributed to one dispersal vicariant event without fossils, as many six dispersal, vicariant, 11 local extinction events when considering fossils. migrated between North America via Bering Land Bridge during early Oligocene Miocene periods. With closure Turgai Strait, dispersed Europe through Miocene. analyses indicated that preferred warm temperate regions across Hemisphere since Oligocene, drastic temperature decline caused high latitudes. Except fraxinifolia stenoptera , suitable habitats this genus predicted contract by 2070 due climate change.

Biogeographic disjunction patterns, where multiple taxa are shared between isolated geographic areas, represent excellent systems for investigating the historical assembly of modern biotas and fundamental biological processes such as speciation, diversification, niche evolution, evolutionary responses to climate change. Studies on plant genera disjunct across northern hemisphere, particularly eastern North America (ENA) Asia (EAS), have yielded tremendous insight geologic history rich temperate floras. However, one most prevalent patterns involving ENA forests has been largely overlooked: that cloud Mesoamerica (MAM), with examples including Acer saccharum, Liquidambar styraciflua, Cercis canadensis, Fagus grandifolia, Epifagus virginiana. Despite remarkable nature this pattern, which recognized over 75 years, there few recent efforts empirically examine its ecological origins. Here I synthesize previous systematic, paleobotanical, phylogenetic, phylogeographic studies establish what is known about pattern provide a roadmap future research. argue evolution fossil record Mexican flora more broadly, represents key missing piece in broader puzzle hemisphere biogeography. also suggest ENA-MAM an system examining questions how traits life strategies mediate change predicting broadleaf will respond ongoing climatic pressures Anthropocene.

Abstract Premise There is a general lack of consensus on the best practices for filtering single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and whether it better to use SNPs or include flanking regions (full “locus”) in phylogenomic analyses subsequent comparative methods. Methods Using genotyping‐by‐sequencing data from 22 Glycine species, we assessed effects SNP vs. locus usage retention stringency. We compared branch length, node support, divergence time estimation across 16 datasets with varying amounts missing total size. Results Our results revealed five aspects that may be generally applicable: (1) tree topology largely congruent analyses; (2) strictly (e.g., 90–100%) reduces support can alter some inferred relationships; (3) absolute lengths vary by two orders magnitude between datasets; (4) type length variation have little effect estimation; (5) phylograms ancestral states rates morphological evolution. Discussion does not phylogenetic inference significantly, unless researchers want need lengths. recommend against using excessive thresholds reduce risk producing inconsistent topologies generating low support.

Unique and biodiverse, mangrove ecosystems provide humans with benefits contribute to coastal protection. Rhizophora mucronata, a member of the Rhizophoraceae family, is prevalent in forests Thailand. R. mucronata's population structure genetic diversity have received scant attention. Here, we sequenced entire genome mucronata using 10× Genomics technology obtained an assembly size 219 Mb N50 length 542,540 bases. Using 2857 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers, this study investigated 80 accessions from The was moderate (I = 0.573, Ho 0.619, He 0.391). Two subpopulations were observed confirmed both principal component analysis (PCA). Analysis molecular variance (AMOVA) showed that there more variation within populations than between them. Mean pairwise differentiation (FST 0.09) not much difference populations. Intriguingly, predominant clustering pattern did correspond Gulf Thailand Andaman Sea, which are separated by Malay Peninsula. Several factors could influenced pattern, such as hybridization anthropogenic factors. This research will important information for future conservation management

Abstract Premise In phylogenomic analyses, no consensus exists on whether using single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) or including flanking regions (full ‘locus’) is best, nor how strictly missing data should be filtered. Moreover, empirical evidence SNP-only trees are suitable for downstream phylogenetic comparative methods such as divergence time estimation and ancestral state reconstructions lacking. Methods Using GBS from 22 taxa of Glycine , we addressed the effects SNP vs. locus usage filtering stringency inference methods. We compared branch length, node support, across eight datasets with varying amounts total size. Results Our results reveal five aspects usage: 1 . tree topology largely congruent regardless type parameters; 2 too reduces confidence in some relationships; 3 absolute lengths vary by two orders magnitude between datasets; 4 length variation have little effect estimation; 5 phylograms significantly alter states. Discussion When conducting analyses recommend not to filter minimize risk misleading topologies, low inaccurate times.

Abstract Selaginellaceae, originated in the Carboniferous and survived Permian–Triassic mass extinction, is largest family of lycophyte, which sister to other tracheophytes. It stands out from tracheophytes by exhibiting extraordinary habitat diversity lacking polyploidization. The organelle genome-based phylogenies confirmed monophyly Selaginella, with six or seven subgenera grouped into two superclades, but phylogenetic positions enigmatic Selaginella sanguinolenta clade remained problematic. Here, we conducted a phylogenomic study on Selaginellaceae utilizing large-scale nuclear gene data RNA-seq elucidate phylogeny explore causes incongruence S. clade. Our analyses resolved three different clade, were supported sorted sets, respectively. results flow test, species network inference, plastome-based congruently suggested probable hybrid origin involving each common ancestor superclades Selaginellaceae. hypothesis corroborated evidence rhizophore morphology spore micromorphology. chromosome observation Ks distributions further hybridization accompanied Divergence time estimation based independent datasets sets plastid genome inferred that allopolyploidization occurred Early Triassic.
