P phylogenetic analyses of multiple populations of the allotetraploid T. castellanus suggest that some of the chromosomal variants that originate in young polyploids may become fixed in populations, contributing to novelty in older polyploid lineages.

Molecular phylogeny of Tragopogon L. (Asteraceae) based on seven nuclear loci (Adh, GapC, LFY, AP3, PI, ITS, and ETS)
- E. Mavrodiev, M. Gitzendanner, A. Calaminus, R. M. Baldini, P. Soltis, D. Soltis
- Biology
- 1 January 2012
Tragopogon is a large Eurasian genus of approximately 150 species, but relationships within the genus remain largely unresolved, and molecular investigations of geographically widespread species in Europe indicate that each may be non-monophyletic, comprising several cryptic species.

The results show that all the endemic species of the Tuscan Archipelago are directly and/or indirectly threatened by human activities, such as tourism and agriculture, and invasive species of plants and animals.
Canary grasses (Phalaris, Poaceae): Molecular phylogenetics, polyploidy and floret evolution
- Stephanie Voshell, R. M. Baldini, Rohit Kumar, Nicholas Tatalovich, K. Hilu
- Biology
- 1 October 2011
The first phylogenetic tree for Phalaris is reconstructed using nuclear ITS and plastid trnT-F sequences to assess species relationships and map trends in floret differentiation and patterns of polyploid evolution.
Infrageneric treatment of Phalaris (Canary grasses, Poaceae) based on molecular phylogenetics and floret structure
