Complex patterns of reticulate evolution in opportunistic weeds (Potentilla L., Rosaceae), as revealed by low-copy nuclear markers
Persson, Nannie Linnéa; Eriksson, Torsten; Smedmark, Jenny E. E. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-03-18)Background: Most cinquefoils (Potentilla L., Rosaceae) are polyploids, ranging from tetraploid (4x) to dodecaploid (12x), diploids being a rare exception. Previous studies based on ribosomal and chloroplast data indicated ... -
Detecting destabilizing species in the phylogenetic backbone of Potentilla (Rosaceae) using low-copy nuclear markers
Persson, Nannie Linnéa; Toresen, Ingrid; Andersen, Heidi Lie; Smedmark, Jenny E. E.; Eriksson, Torsten (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The genus Potentilla (Rosaceae) has been subjected to several phylogenetic studies, but resolving its evolutionary history has proven challenging. Previous analyses recovered six, informally named, groups: the Argentea, ... -
Microsatellite markers for the biogeographically enigmatic sandmyrtle (Kalmia buxifolia, Phyllodoceae: Ericaceae)
Gillespie, Emily L.; Madsen-McQueen, Tesa; Eriksson, Torsten; Bailey, Adam; Murrell, Zack E (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Premise: Microsatellite markers were developed for sandmyrtle, Kalmia buxifolia (Ericaceae), to facilitate phylogeographic studies in this taxon and possibly many of its close relatives. Methods and Results: Forty‐eight ...
