  1. 16. Phylogeny of Selaginellaceae

    Författare :Petra Korall; Birgitta Bremer; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Plant physiology; Växtfysiologi; fysiologisk botanik; Physiological Botany;

    Sammanfattning : The phylogeny of Selaginellaceae, a small, but historically important family of heterosporous lycopods, has been the focus of this thesis. The approximately 700 extant species are herbaceous and distributed all over the world, with most species in the tropics and subtropics. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Phylogeny and classification of the tribe Vanguerieae (Rubiaceae)

    Författare :Henrik Lantz; Torsten Eriksson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biology; Vanguerieae; Rubiacaeae; phylogeny; classification; morphology; ITS; trnT-F; rpl16; Biologi; Biology; Biologi; systematisk botanik; Systematic Botany;

    Sammanfattning : Vanguerieae is a tribe in the mainly tropical angiosperm family Rubiaceae. The tribe currently comprises around 600 species in 27 genera, with the major part of the species distributed in Africa south of the Sahara. The phylogeny of the tribe was investigated using both molecular and morphological data. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Phylogeny and topological incongruence in the Rubioideae (Rubiaceae)

    Författare :Olle Thureborn; Catarina Rydin; Sylvain G. Razafimandimbison; Niklas Wikström; Michael D. Pirie; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Anthospermeae; cytonuclear discordance; gene trees; incomplete lineage sorting; incongruence; mitochondrial genome; nuclear genome; phylogenomics; phylogeny; plastid genome; Rubiaceae; Rubioideae; species trees; Plant Systematics; växtsystematik;

    Sammanfattning : The work with this thesis has focused on evolutionary relationships in the Rubioideae, the most species-rich subfamily of the large and diverse coffee family (Rubiaceae). Despite considerable efforts during the last decades, uncertainty regarding several relationships in this group has remained, either as a result of unconvincing statistic support, incongruent results, or insufficient taxon sampling.

  5. 19. Mine the Gaps : Evolution of Eukaryotic Protein Indels and their Application for Testing Deep Phylogeny

    Författare :Pravech Ajawatanawong; Sandra Baldauf; James McInerney; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; indel; insertion deletion; protein evolution; bioinformatics; non-bilateria; eukaryotes; phylogeny; Biology with specialization in Systematics; Biologi med inriktning mot systematik; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär evolution; Biology with specialization in Molecular Evolution;

    Sammanfattning : Insertions/deletions (indels) are potentially powerful evolutionary markers, but little is known about their evolution and few tools exist to effectively study them. To address this, I developed SeqFIRE, a tool for automated identification and extraction of indels from protein multiple sequence alignments. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Phylogeny and Taxonomy of Polyblastia and allied taxa (Verrucariaceae)

    Författare :Sanja Savić; Leif Tibell; Bengt Oxelman; Martin Grube; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Biology; Phylogeny; Taxonomy; ITS; LSU; RPB1; Nomenclature; Biologi; Polyblastia; Verrucariaceae; Sporodictyon; Atla; Thelidium; Verrucaria; Staurothele; Trimmatothele;

    Sammanfattning : Polyblastia A. Massal. is a genus of lichenized fungi belonging to Verrucariaceae (Ascomycota). Traditional classification heavily rested on a few cardinal characters, primarily ascoma structure and spore morphology, but the delimitation of Polyblastia was problematic. LÄS MER
