Abstract excerpt
A portion of the nuclear gene glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (gpd) was sequenced in 26 representatives of the paleotropical moss, Mitthyridium, and a group of 20 outgroup taxa to assess its utility for phylogenetic reconstruction compared with the better understood chloroplast markers, rps4 and trnL. Primers based on plant and fungal sequences were designed to amplify gpd in plants universally with the...
