Genetic diversity in widespread species is not congruent with species richness in alpine plant communities.
- P. Taberlet, N. Zimmermann, +54 authors M. Vellend
- Biology, Medicine
- Ecology letters
- 1 December 2012
The Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) aims at the conservation of all three levels of biodiversity, that is, ecosystems, species and genes. Genetic diversity represents evolutionary potential… Expand
History or ecology? Substrate type as a major driver of spatial genetic structure in Alpine plants.
- N. Alvarez, C. Thiel-Egenter, +17 authors F. Gugerli
- Biology, Medicine
- Ecology letters
- 1 July 2009
Climatic history and ecology are considered the most important factors moulding the spatial pattern of genetic diversity. With the advent of molecular markers, species' historical fates have been… Expand
How to Handle Speciose Clades? Mass Taxon-Sampling as a Strategy towards Illuminating the Natural History of Campanula (Campanuloideae)
- G. Mansion, G. Parolly, +11 authors T. Borsch
- Biology, Medicine
- PloS one
- 28 November 2012
Background Speciose clades usually harbor species with a broad spectrum of adaptive strategies and complex distribution patterns, and thus constitute ideal systems to disentangle biotic and abiotic… Expand
Towards a species level tree of the globally diverse genus Chenopodium (Chenopodiaceae).
- Susy Fuentes-Bazán, G. Mansion, T. Borsch
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular phylogenetics and evolution
- 2012
Chenopodium is a large and morphologically variable genus of annual and perennial herbs with an almost global distribution. All subgenera and most sections of Chenopodium were sampled along with… Expand
Phylogenetic patterns and polyploid evolution within the Mediterranean genus Centaurium (Gentianaceae - Chironieae)
- G. Mansion, L. Zeltner, F. Bretagnolle
- Biology
- 1 November 2005
The genus Centaurium (centauries) comprises ca. 27 annual species and subspecies primarily distributed in the Mediterranean basin. Phylogenetic relationships, inferred from sequences of both nrDNA… Expand
Relationships among pansies (Viola section Melanium) investigated using ITS and ISSR markers

- Biology
- Plant Systematics and Evolution
- 4 November 2003
Abstract.Sequences of the nuclear region ITS and the variable molecular markers ISSR were used to estimate the phylogeny of the section Melanium of the genus Viola. We confirm that the so-called… Expand
Generic delimitation and phylogenetic relationships within the subtribe Chironiinae (Chironieae: Gentianaceae), with special reference to Centaurium: evidence from nrDNA and cpDNA sequences.
- G. Mansion, L. Struwe
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular phylogenetics and evolution
- 1 September 2004
To better understand the evolutionary history of the genus Centaurium and its relationship to other genera of the subtribe Chironiinae (Gentianaceae: Chironieae), molecular analyses were performed… Expand
Monophyly and relationships of the tribe Exaceae (Gentianaceae) inferred from nuclear ribosomal and chloroplast DNA sequences.
- Yong-Ming Yuan, Sébastien Wohlhauser, +5 authors J. Klackenberg
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular phylogenetics and evolution
- 1 September 2003
Both chloroplast trnL (UAA) intron and nuclear ribosomal ITS sequences highly confirmed the monophyly of the tribes of the Gentianaceae defined by the recent classification, and revealed the tribe… Expand
Phylogeny of Campanuloideae (Campanulaceae) with Emphasis on the Utility of Nuclear Pentatricopeptide Repeat (PPR) Genes
- Andrew A Crowl, E. Mavrodiev, +6 authors N. Cellinese
- Medicine, Biology
- PloS one
- 9 April 2014
Background The Campanuloideae (Campanulaceae) are a highly diverse clade of angiosperms found mostly in the Northern Hemisphere, with the highest diversity in temperate areas of the Old World.… Expand
Allopolyploid Origin of the Mediterranean Endemic, Centaurium bianoris (Gentianaceae), Inferred by Molecular Markers
