This book was released on 2015 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eupatorieae is one of the most diverse tribes of the sunflower family (Asteraceae). Its species are distributed mostly in the Neotropics and especially in Brazil, where the tribal species diversity reaches its peak. This research study uses molecular phylogenetic methods and sequences from two nuclear and three chloroplast genome regions of 183 Eupatorieae species representing 91% of the Brazilian genera to shed light into the systematics of the group and investigate its temporal and evolutionary diversification patterns. The study includes the largest phylogenetic tree of tribe Eupatorieae to date, which reveals that the current classification of Eupatorieae needs to be revised as eight of the 13 subtribes sampled and 16 genera are not monophyletic. It is clear that the morphology-based classification does not reflect the evolutionary history of the group and the possible reasons for this are inadequate character choice when classification was proposed, convergent evolution of the chosen characters and hybridization. The phylogeny also revealed that the Brazilian Eupatorieae species do not form a monophyletic group, however, more than half of the sampled genera (53) and 247 species form the Cerrado Atlantic Forest Eupatorieae (CAFE) clade composed of taxa with remarkable morphological variation that inhabit mostly the Brazilian Cerrado and Atlantic Forest. The divergence time analysis based on the same dataset shows that tribe Eupatorieae originated approximately 13 million years ago, most Brazilian Eupatorieae lineages diversified in the last 10 million years, including the CAFE clade 6 million years ago. Estimates for other Brazilian lineages are similar and also date to the mid and late Miocene, an important period of plant diversification. In addition, a high net diversification rate of 0.66 lineages/myr was estimated for the CAFE clade using a Bayesian method as a result of high extinction and even higher speciation rates. Some CAFE subclades have diversified very fast, with rates that are among the highest ever recorded for Brazilian and Asteraceae taxa. Lastly, no significant shifts in diversification rates through time were found in the CAFE clade.

Download or read book Systematics Evolution and Biogeography of Compositae written by Vicki Ann Funk and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 1008 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This spectacular book does full justice to the Compositae (Asteraceae), the largest and most successful flowering plant family with some 1700 genera and 24,000 species. It is an indispensable reference, providing the most up-to-date hypotheses of phylogenetic relationships in the family based on molecular and morphological characters, along with the corresponding subfamilial and tribal classification. The 2009 work not only integrates the extensive molecular phylogenetic analyses conducted in the last 25 years, but also uses these to produce a metatree for about 900 taxa of Compositae. The book contains 44 chapters, contributed by 80 authors, covering the history, economic importance, character variation, and systematic and phylogenetic diversity of the family. The emphasis of this work is phylogenetic; its chapters provide a detailed, current, and thoroughly documented presentation of the major (and not so major) clades in the family, citing some 2632 references. Like the Compositae, the book is massive, diverse, and fascinating. It is beautifully illustrated, with 170 figures, and an additional 108 cladograms (all consistently color-coded, based on the geographic range of the included taxa); within these figures are displayed 443 color photographs, clearly demonstrating the amazing array of floral and vegetative form expressed by members of the clade." --NHBS Environment Bookstore.

Download or read book Asteraceae written by Kåre Bremer and published by Timber Press (OR). This book was released on 1994 with total page 772 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The result is the most comprehensive elucidation of the evolutionary relationships of the Asteraceae and of the groups within it, and an exhaustive classification of the family. All available information on the phylogeny of the family has here been assembled in one volume; included are more than 50 cladograms and phylogenetic trees, many of them from new and hitherto unpublished cladistic analyses. In addition to introductory chapters on cladistics, classification, morphology, and evolution, the book also includes chapters on each of the sub-families and tribes, with illustrations of morphological details, as well as descriptions of all genera. Several of these chapters were provided by Arne A. Anderberg, Per Ola Karis, Bertil Nordenstam, Johannes Lundberg, and Olof Ryding, from the Swedish Museum of Natural History in Stockholm and from the Department of Systematic Botany at Uppsala University, Sweden.

This book was released on 2013-11-27 with total page 836 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flavonoids are secondary plant products that have previously been shown to be helpful in determining relationships among plant groups. This work presents comprehensively the occurrence, patterns of variation, and systematic and evolutionary importance of flavonoids in the sunflower family (Asteraceae), the largest family of flowering plants (23,000 species). It gathers together the more than 2500 reports of flavonoids in Asteraceae published between 1950 to the present and interprets these data in context of new taxonomic (especially generic) alignments. The authors discuss flavonoid patterns with reference to modern phylogenetic studies based on morphology and DNA data. This book provides, therefore, the most exhaustive synthesis and evaluation of the systematic and evolutionary import of flavonoids ever accomplished for any large family of angiosperms.

Download or read book A Revision of the Tribal and Subtribal Limits of the Heliantheae Asteraceae written by Harold Ernest Robinson and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tribe Heliantheae is expanded to include the genera previously placed in the tribe Helenieae and many genera from the Senecioneae. Thirty-five subtribes are recognized and described, and the more than 265 genera are listed with known, validly described synonyms. A theoretical key to subtribes is provided. Various structural and chemical characteristics are reviewed, and emphasis is given to resin duct patterns, presence of fiber-sheaths in disk corollas, and patterns of striations in achenes. The Heliantheae is considered a member of the subfamily Asteroideae in a position parallel to and more advanced than the Eupatorieae.
