Phylogeny and Divergence Times of Gymnosperms Inferred from Single-Copy Nuclear Genes
TLDR
This study uses LFY and NLY, two single-copy nuclear genes that originated from an ancient gene duplication in the ancestor of seed plants, to reconstruct the phylogeny and estimate divergence times of gymnosperms based on a complete sampling of extant genera and strongly supports cycads as the basal-most lineage of Gymnosperms rather than sister to Ginkgoaceae.
A transcriptome-based resolution for a key taxonomic controversy in Cupressaceae
TLDR
The analysis of SCN genes resolves a controversial phylogenetic relationship in the Cupressoideae, a major clade of conifers, and suggests that rapid evolutionary divergence and incomplete lineage sorting probably acted together as the source for conflicting phylogenetic inferences between gene trees.
Molecular phylogenetics and evolutionary history of sect. Quinquefoliae (Pinus): implications for Northern Hemisphere biogeography.
A molecular phylogeny of the Old World cypresses (Cupressus: Cupressaceae): evidence from nuclear and chloroplast DNA sequences
TLDR
Factors confounding cypress taxonomies, including poor morphological differentiation, misidentification, and the use of accessions of questionable provenance, are discussed and Statistical analysis of genetic distances suggests instances in which taxa recognized as distinct species by some authors are identical or nearly so and may best be considered a single taxon.
New infrageneric classification of Abies in light of molecular phylogeny and high diversity in western North America
TLDR
Phylogenetic results show that western North America is home to an exceptionally high diversity of fir lineages, which is further corroborated by the cuticle morphology and internal transcribed spacer genotypes based on the length differences.
Chloroplast genome of an extremely endangered conifer Thuja sutchuenensis Franch.: gene organization, comparative and phylogenetic analysis
TLDR
The reconstructed phylogeny based on locally collinear blocks of cp genomes among 21 gymnosperms species is similar to previous inferences and inferred a Late-Miocene divergence between T. sutchuenensis and T. standishii.
Evolution and biogeography of gymnosperms.
Phylogenomic evidence for ancient recombination between plastid genomes of the Cupressus-Juniperus-Xanthocyparis complex (Cupressaceae)
TLDR
It is suggested that the conflicting plastomic signals result from an ancient introgression event involving ycf1 and ycf2 that occurred in an ancestor of this species complex, offering further evidence that recombination occurs between plastomes.
Phylogenetic incongruence in Cymbidium orchids
The dynamic history of gymnosperm plastomes: Insights from structural characterization, comparative analysis, phylogenomics, and time divergence
TLDR
It was found that plastome size, structure, and gene order were highly variable in the five gymnosperm groups, of which Parasitaxus usta (Vieill.) de Laub.

Seed plant phylogeny inferred from all three plant genomes: monophyly of extant gymnosperms and origin of Gnetales from conifers.
TLDR
The Gnetales may be viewed as extremely divergent conifers, and the many morphological similarities between angiosperms and G netales arose independently.
Phylogeny and divergence times in Pinaceae: evidence from three genomes.
TLDR
Intergeneric relationships of Pinaceae using sequences of the chloroplast matK gene, the mitochondrial nad5 gene, and the low-copy nuclear gene 4CL are studied to suggest morphology of both vegetative and reproductive organs has undergone convergent evolution within the pine family.
The evolutionary split of Pinaceae from other conifers: evidence from an intron loss and a multigene phylogeny.
TLDR
The data suggest that the non-Pinaceae conifers represent a monophyletic group, in agreement with the conclusion from other recent molecular phylogenetic studies that refute the anthophyte hypothesis.

Comparative Chloroplast Genomics Reveals the Evolution of Pinaceae Genera and Subfamilies
TLDR
The phylogenetic analyses reveal that Cedrus is clustered with Abies–Keteleeria rather than the basal-most genus of Pinaceae and that Cathaya is closer to Pinus than to Picea or Larix–Pseudotsuga, and views on subfamilial classifications differ from previous studies in terms of the rank of Cedrus and with recognition of more than two subfamilies.

Phylogenetic relationships of conifers inferred from partial 28S rRNA gene sequences.
TLDR
Cl cladistic analyses using a new data set obtained from 28S rRNA gene sequences strongly support the monophyly of conifers including Taxaceae and suggest that the common ancestor of these families, both having the greatest diversity in the Southern Hemisphere, inhabited Gondwanaland.
Phylogenetic relationships in Taxodiaceae and Cupressaceae sensu stricto based on matK gene, chlL gene, trnL-trnF IGS region, and trnL intron sequences.
TLDR
Results indicate that Taiwania diverged first, and then Athrotaxis diverged from the remaining genera, and found acceleration of evolutionary rates in Cupressaceae s.s. in accordance with previous morphological groupings and the analyses of molecular data.
