An Arcto-Tertiary origin of Meehania is suggested, with its present distribution most probably being a result of vicariance and southward migrations of populations during climatic oscillations in the middle Miocene with subsequent migration into eastern North America via the Bering land bridge in the late Miocene.

Phylogenetic relationships and diversification dynamics of Cerastium (Alsineae: Caryophyllaceae): implications for biogeographical patterns of herbs in the Northern Hemisphere

A comprehensive phylogenetic tree for Cerastium with 75 species based on one nuclear and five plastid DNA markers is presented and the importance of the Northern Hemisphere in herbaceous species diversification in the late Miocene and Pliocene is highlighted.

East Asian-North American disjunctions and phylogenetic relationships within subtribe Nepetinae (Lamiaceae).

Historical Biogeography of Melanthiaceae: A Case of Out-of-North America Through the Bering Land Bridge

The molecular dating and the ancestral area analyses suggest that Melanthiaceae most likely originated in North America with its crown group dated at 92.1 mya in the late Cretaceous, which adds an example of “out of North America” migration in the biogeographic history of the Northern Hemisphere.

Molecular Phylogeny and Historical Biogeography of Goodyera R. Br. (Orchidaceae): A Case of the Vicariance Between East Asia and North America

The biogeographical reconstruction suggests that subtropical or tropical Asia is the origin of Goodyera and it has subsequently spread to temperate Asia during the Miocene, and climatic and geological changes have had a part in this diversification.

A western representative of an eastern clade: phylogeographic history of the gypsophilous plant Nepeta hispanica

Results reveal that N. hispanica belongs to an eastern Mediterranean and Asian clade diversified in arid environments since the Miocene-Pliocene, and represents the only extant lineage of this clade that colonized the western Mediterranean, probably through the northern Mediterranean coast.

Evolution of floral characters and biogeography of Heloniadeae (Melanthiaceae): an example of breeding system shifts with inflorescence change

A Bayesian phylogenetic tree for Heloniadeae was constructed using cpDNA and inferred the historical biogeography and floral character evolution, revealing that HeloniADEae was distributed in high-latitudes of East Asia and North America, originating since 22.2 mya.

Phylogenomic analyses in the apple genus Malus s.l. reveal widespread hybridization and allopolyploidy driving the diversifications, with insights into the complex biogeographic history in the Northern Hemisphere

The conflict analysis demonstrated that ILS, hybridization, and allopolyploidy could explain the widespread nuclear gene tree discordance and provides a valuable evolutionary framework for the breeding and crop improvement of apples and their close relatives.

Biogeography of Coptis Salisb. (Ranunculales, Ranunculaceae, Coptidoideae), an Eastern Asian and North American genus

These analyses provide evidence that both vicariance and dispersal events have played important roles in shaping the current distribution and endemism of Coptis, likely resulting from eustatic sea-level changes, mountain formation processes and an increasing drier and cooler climate from the middle Miocene onwards.

Past climate cooling and orogenesis of the Hengduan Mountains have influenced the evolution of Impatiens sect. Impatiens (Balsaminaceae) in the Northern Hemisphere

Molecular phylogenetics and biogeography of the eastern Asian–eastern North American disjunct Mitchella and its close relative Damnacanthus (Rubiaceae, Mitchelleae)

P phylogenetic and biogeographical analyses for Mitchella and its close relative Damnacanthus based on sequences of the nuclear internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and four plastid markers suggest that the genus originated in eastern Asia and migrated to North America via the Bering land bridge in the late Miocene.

Molecular phylogeny and biogeography of Astilbe (Saxifragaceae) in Asia and eastern North America

The intercontinental disjunct lineage in Astilbe invokes a hybridization event either in eastern Asia or in North America, which provides evidence for the close floristic affinity between temperate or alpine south-western China and tropical Asia.

The Use of Geological and Paleontological Evidence in Evaluating Plant Phylogeographic Hypotheses in the Northern Hemisphere Tertiary

The history of the climatic and geographic features of the Tertiary of the Northern Hemisphere agrees with many phylogenetically based phylogeographic hypotheses of living angiosperm genera but indicates that some hypotheses require reanalysis.

Monophyly of Kelloggia Torrey ex Benth. (Rubiaceae) and evolution of its intercontinental disjunction between western North America and eastern Asia.

Ancestral area analysis and dispersal-vicariance analysis suggests the Asian origin of Kelloggia and the importance of Eurasia in the diversification of its close relatives in the Rubieae-Theligoneae-Paederieae group.

Using Molecular Data to Test a Biogeographic Connection of the Macaronesian Genus Bystropogon (Lamiaceae) to the New World: A Case of Conflicting Phylogenies

The strict consensus tree of this analysis shows with moderate bootstrap support that Bystropogon is sister to the Old World taxa Acinos, Ziziphora, and Clinopodium vulgare, and the cpDNA phylogeny strongly supports a relationship of Bystropyogon with a clade of New World mint taxa.
