“…Over the past two decades, enormous progress has been made in understanding overall phylogenetic relationships and evolution in Dipsacales (Donoghue et al, 1992Eriksson & Donoghue, 1997;Pyck & Smets, 2000;Bell et al, 2001Bell et al, , 2012, 2005Zhang et al, 2003;Bell, 2004;Moore & Donoghue, 2007;Theis et al, 2008;Winkworth et al, 2008aWinkworth et al, , 2008bCarlson et al, 2009;Jacobs et al, 2009Jacobs et al, , 2010aJacobs et al, , 2010bJacobs et al, , 2011Landrein et al, 2012;Clement et al, 2014;Wang et al, 2015;Landrein & Prenner, 2016). Although most genera and all families in Dipsacales have been included in molecular studies cited above, no single study has included representatives for each clade by using plastomic sequences.…”
