Discrete qualitative and continuous quantitative characters ("gap-coded") are used in a parsimony analysis of the phylogenetic relationships of the pinyon pines. Cladograms con- structed using all the data (both discrete and continuous characters) are congruent with those constructed with the continuous characters deleted from the data set. The continuous characters add resolution to clades not resolved by discrete qualitative characters. The resulting phylogeny is then used to examine Axelrod…

The phylogeny and biogeography of Thamnochortus (Restionaceae)
- Environmental Science, Geography
- 1998
Parsimony analysis of morphological data was used to demonstrate the existence of five groups in Thamnochortus, suggesting that geographical differentiation within the genus has followed climatic patterns, and suggesting that some of the speciation may be a consequence of climatic change in southern Africa.
Variation in the nrDNA ITS of Pinus subsection Cembroides: implications for molecular systematic studies of pine species complexes.
- BiologyMolecular phylogenetics and evolution
- 2001
Within the pinyon clade, phylogenetic structure is present, but different clones from the same (or different) individuals of a species are polyphyletic, indicating that coalescence of ITS copies within individual genomes predates evolutionary divergence in the group.

The cpDNA tree plus evidence from nuclear ribosomal DNA and morphology to propose a new classification for the genus Pinus, allowing for the delineation of two subgenera, each with two sections that form sister groups.
Biodiversity of Pinus (Pinaceae) in Mexico: speciation and palaeo-endemism
- Environmental Science
- 1996
Mexico, with 43 species of Pinus recognized in the most recent revision for Flora Neotropica, is the richest centre of diversity for the genus, and Phylogenetic analysis indicates that several of the oldest and most primitive members of the genus may have originated in this part of the continent and coexist with the species resulting from more recent radiation.

Phylogenetic position and admixture analysis suggest that P. californiarum should be treated as a separate species from P. monophylla and support recognizing P. fallax as a species rather than as an infraspecific taxon of P. edulis.
Transcriptome of weeping pinyon pine, Pinus pinceana, shows differences across heterogeneous habitats
- Environmental Science
- 2021
The needle tissue Transcriptome of P. pinceana was reconstructed for individuals from distinct biogeographic regions across a temperature and precipitation gradient that represents its natural distribution and found differential expression of a regulator of root morphogenesis, cysteine-rich receptor-like protein kinase (CRK28) could relate to differential absorption in drought conditions.

Morphological and niche divergence of pinyon pines
- Biology, Environmental ScienceEcology and evolution
- 2016
The pattern of niche evolution of the pinyon pine lineage is shown, morphological adaptations possibly related to niche divergence are suggested, and it is demonstrated that niche divergence is the general pattern within the clade and that it is positively correlated with adaptation.
Phylogenetics and genomic patterns of speciation in Pinus with an empahsis on subgenus Strobus
- Biology

It is demonstrated that Pinus chiapensis is a distinct species, but that taxonomy is not universally accepted, and the absence of allelic coalescence is a severe constraint in the application of phylogenetic methods in Pinus.

CpDNA divergence was found to be low within the section Sylvvestres, relative to the divergence among haploxylon species, suggesting that the radiation of this group of taxa from its common ancestor occurred after the diversification of other groups.

RESTRICTION FRAGMENT ANALYSIS OF PINE PHYLOGENY
- BiologyEvolution; international journal of organic evolution
- 1990
The high similarity within the most speciose groups of pines (sections Strobus and Pinus) suggests that the bulk of the genus radiated relatively recently, and other methods, such as DNA sequencing or fine structure analysis of restriction site mutations, are likely to be necessary for rooting pine phylogenies with respect to other coniferous genera, and for estimating divergence times.
Reproductive Interdependence of Pinon Jays and Pinon Pines
- Environmental Science
- 1978
The synchrony of seed production by pinon pines over large geographic areas is interpreted as an evolved mechanism that overwhelms invertebrate seed and cone predators, and increases the numbers of seeds per tree that will be cached by Pinon Jays and other vertebrates.
