Abstract excerpt
The matK gene has been among the most useful loci for resolving plant phylogenetic relationships at different evolutionary time-scales, but much less is known about the phylogenetic utility of the flanking trnK intron, especially for deep level phylogenetics. We compared the relative performance of matK and trnK intron regions for resolving the relationships of the early diverging eudicots (angiosperms). The two...
