Researchers have used publicly available data to develop a sequence library of the rbcL gene, a popular barcode in plants, for use in DNA metabarcoding studies. Using both the rbcL and an already ...

The ever-larger data matrices resulting from continuing improvements in DNA sequencing techniques require faster and more efficient methods of phylogenetic analysis. Here we explore a promising new ...

Sarraceniaceae, a New World family of carnivorous plants, consist of Sarracenia, Heliamphora, and the monotypic Darlingtonia. Despite extensive interest in these plants, few explicit phylogenetic ...

The ability to identify individual plant species from tiny amounts of material has a surprising range of uses, from monitoring bee populations to assessing the contents of food and nutritional ...
