Challenges of comprehensive taxon sampling in comparative biology: Wrestling with rosids.

Abstract excerpt

Using phylogenetic approaches to test hypotheses on a large scale, in terms of both species sampling and associated species traits and occurrence data-and doing this with rigor despite all the attendant challenges-is critical for addressing many broad questions in evolution and ecology. However, application of such approaches to empirical systems is hampered by a lingering series of theoretical and practical...
