RESUMO

Angiosperms are the cornerstone of most terrestrial ecosystems and human livelihoods1,2. A robust understanding of angiosperm evolution is required to explain their rise to ecological dominance. So far, the angiosperm tree of life has been determined primarily by means of analyses of the plastid genome3,4. Many studies have drawn on this foundational work, such as classification and first insights into angiosperm diversification since their Mesozoic origins5-7. However, the limited and biased sampling of both taxa and genomes undermines confidence in the tree and its implications. Here, we build the tree of life for almost 8,000 (about 60%) angiosperm genera using a standardized set of 353 nuclear genes8. This 15-fold increase in genus-level sampling relative to comparable nuclear studies9 provides a critical test of earlier results and brings notable change to key groups, especially in rosids, while substantiating many previously predicted relationships. Scaling this tree to time using 200 fossils, we discovered that early angiosperm evolution was characterized by high gene tree conflict and explosive diversification, giving rise to more than 80% of extant angiosperm orders. Steady diversification ensued through the remaining Mesozoic Era until rates resurged in the Cenozoic Era, concurrent with decreasing global temperatures and tightly linked with gene tree conflict. Taken together, our extensive sampling combined with advanced phylogenomic methods shows the deep history and full complexity in the evolution of a megadiverse clade.

RESUMO

The angiosperm family Primulaceae is morphologically diverse and distributed nearly worldwide. However, phylogenetic uncertainty has obstructed the identification of major morphological and biogeographic transitions within the clade. We used target capture sequencing with the Angiosperms353 probes, taxon-sampling encompassing nearly all genera of the family, tree-based sequence curation, and multiple phylogenetic approaches to investigate the major clades of Primulaceae and their relationship to other Ericales. We generated dated phylogenetic trees and conducted broad-scale biogeographic analyses as well as stochastic character mapping of growth habit. We show that Ardisia, a pantropical genus and the largest in the family, is not monophyletic, with at least 19 smaller genera nested within it. Neotropical members of Ardisia and several smaller genera form a clade, an ancestor of which arrived in the Neotropics and began diversifying about 20 Ma. This Neotropical clade is most closely related to Elingamita and Tapeinosperma, which are most diverse on islands of the Pacific. Both Androsace and Primula are non-monophyletic by the inclusion of smaller genera. Ancestral state reconstructions revealed that there have either been parallel transitions to an herbaceous habit in Primuloideae, Samolus, and at least three lineages of Myrsinoideae, or a common ancestor of nearly all Primulaceae was herbaceous. Our results provide a robust estimate of phylogenetic relationships across Primulaceae and show that a revised classification of Myrsinoideae and several other clades within the family is necessary to render all genera monophyletic.
