The evidence for anthocyanins in the betalain-pigmented genus Hylocereus is weak

B. Pucker, S. F. Brockington

The paper challenges the findings of Zhou et al. 2020 by highlighting methodological flaws and re-analyzing data to argue against the presence of anthocyanins in betalain-pigmented Hylocereus.

Disentangling Sources of Gene Tree Discordance in Phylogenomic Datasets: Testing Ancient Hybridizations in Amaranthaceae s.l.

D. F. Morales-Briones, G. Kadereit, D. T. Tefarikis, M. Moore, S. A. Smith, S. F. Brockington, A. Timoneda, W. C. Yim, J. C. Cushman, Y. Yang

The paper investigates gene tree discordance in Amaranthaceae s.l. using multiple methods, finding that ancient hybridizations and rapid lineage diversification may contribute to the discordance.

Evolution of Portulacineae marked by gene tree conflict and gene family expansion associated with adaptation to harsh environments

N. Wang, Y. Yang, M. J. Moore, S. F. Brockington, J. F. Walker, J. W. Brown, B. Liang, T. Feng, C. Edwards, J. Mikenas, J. Olivieri, V. Hutchison, A. Timoneda, T. Stoughton, R. Puente, , S. A. Smith

This study reconstructs the phylogeny of Portulacineae and examines molecular evolution correlates with adaptation to harsh environments, identifying gene duplications and expansions linked to stress responses.

Disparity, Diversity, And Duplications In The Caryophyllales

S. Smith, J. W. Brown, Y. Yang, S. F. Brockington, R. Bruenn, C. P. Drummond, J. F. Walker, N. Last, N. A. Douglas, M. Moore

The paper maps whole genome duplications (WGDs) and diversification shifts in Caryophyllales, finding some correlations but no tight link between WGDs and diversification rates.

Widespread paleopolyploidy, gene tree conflict, and recalcitrant relationships among the carnivorous Caryophyllales

J. F. Walker, Y. Yang, M. J. Moore, J. Mikenas, A. Timoneda, S. F. Brockington, S. A. Smith

The paper uses phylogenomic data to analyze relationships among carnivorous Caryophyllales, finding gene tree conflict, paleopolyploidy events, and unresolved relationships.
