ASSESSING THE IMPACT OF PHYLOGENETIC INCONGRUENCE ON TAXONOMY, FLORAL EVOLUTION, BIOGEOGRAPHICAL HISTORY, AND PHYLOGENETIC DIVERSITY

摘要

Premise of the study: Phylogenetic incongruence between "gene trees" and "species trees" has been widely acknowledged in phylogenetic research. Conflicts may emerge from several processes including paralogy, hybridization, and incomplete lineage sorting. Although phylogenetic incongruence appears common, its impact on many phylogeny-based analyses remains poorly understood.
