The #phylogeny and #biogeographic history of the Ulmaceae have long been poorly understood.
In this study, Zhang et al. reconstruct #phylogenetic relationships within the family and infer spatio-temporal #diversification patterns. jse.ac.cn/EN/10.1111/j...

Zhang et al. show that #plastome and nrDNA are effective super-#barcodes for spp. discrimination in Chimonocalamus and, with Skmer analysis for molecular identification, help ID cryptic new #species.

DNA barcoding and cryptic new species confirmation of Chimonocalamus (Poaceae: Bambusoideae)
In order to better exploit the nuclear reads from genome skimming data, an assembly-free and alignment-free analysis method, Skmer analysis, was adopted in a DNA barcoding study of the bamboo genus C...

This week in Madroño, we had the privilege of reading more about the evolution and diversity of Malacothrix and its relatives! In a study conducted by W. S. Davis et al, they followed up on a 2003 study that had previously resolved Malacothrix DC as paraphyletic, with two well-supported nrDNA clades

“マツカサタケは,長らくAuriscalpium vulgareと同定されてきたが,担子胞子の形態はA. orientaleの特徴と一致した.また,nrDNA ITSおよびLSU領域の塩基配列を用いた分子系統解析ではA. orientaleのクレードに含まれた.さらに,マツカサタケはA. orientaleと同じ基質嗜好性を示した.これらの結果から,マツカサタケは中国から記載されたA. orientaleであると結論づけた.”

Not in the same section I believe - sect. Jacobaea doesn't seem to contain it (see bsapubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.... for the original listing and www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... for a follow-up).

A new study by Ahn and colleagues shows high genomic diversity and intermixing among Ligularia plant lineages on the Korean Peninsula and Mt. Hallasan, suggesting frequent hybridization and complex evolutionary relationships.
Genomic diversity of Ligularia revealed by complete plastid genomes and nuclear ribosomal DNAs from 16 collections in Korean Peninsula and Mt. Hallasan
Plastid genome (plastome) and nuclear ribosomal DNA (nrDNA) sequences were assembled from 16 Ligularia accessions, including L. fischeri, L. fischeri var. spiciformis, and L. stenocephala. The…
