Developing markers for multilocus phylogenetics in non-model organisms: A test case with turtles.
We present a strategy for phylogenetic marker development in non-model systems. Rather than using the traditional approach of comparing distantly related taxa to develop conserved primers for unknown species, we explore an alternative strategy that builds primers directly from a single, relatively well characterized species and applies those primers to increasingly distantly related taxa. We de...
متن کاملAnonymous nuclear loci in non-model organisms: making the most of high-throughput genome surveys
MOTIVATION When working with non-model organisms, few if any species-specific markers are available for phylogenetic, phylogeographic and population studies. Therefore, researchers often try to adapt markers developed in distantly related taxa, resulting in poor amplification and ascertainment bias in their target taxa. Markers can be developed de novo and anonymous nuclear loci (ANL) are provi...
متن کاملPhylogenetic utility of 141 low-copy nuclear regions in taxa at different taxonomic levels in two distantly related families of rosids.
Angiosperm systematics has progressed to the point where it is now expected that multiple, independent markers be used in phylogenetic studies. Universal primers for amplifying informative regions of the chloroplast genome are readily available, but in the faster-evolving nuclear genome it is challenging to discover priming sites that are conserved across distantly related taxa. With goals incl...
متن کاملToward a monophyletic Cheilanthes: The resurrection and recircumscription of Myriopteris (Pteridaceae)
The fern genus Cheilanthes (Pteridaceae) has perplexed taxonomists for more than two centuries. Complex patterns of evolution involving rampant morphological convergence, polyploidy, hybridization, and apomixis have made the taxonomy of this group especially difficult. Fortunately, recent phylogenetic analyses have helped to clarify relationships among cheilanthoid taxa. Based on these findings...
متن کاملMorphological and molecular study on some species of Phoma and related taxa in Iran
The genus Phoma Sacc. consists of important fungal plant pathogenic species occurring on economically important cultivated crops in spite of many other saprobic species. Thus, the aim of this study was to identify 35 isolates of Phoma species and related taxa collected from different hosts by means of morphological and molecular characters. Multi-locus phylogenetic analyses based on ITS1-5.8S-I...
