Abstract excerpt
The pantropical genus Diospyros L. (Ebenaceae) includes many economically valuable species prized for ebony timber and edible fruits. However, its high species diversity and morphological similarity pose significant challenges for understanding its evolutionary history. Previous phylogenetic studies have suggested a rapid adaptive radiation in Diospyros, but relationships among major lineages remain poorly...
