• Draft genome sequence of pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan), an orphan legume crop of resource-poor farmers (2011, background): “When compared to other sequenced plant genomes, such as those from cucumber (26,682)19, cacao (28,798)20, grapevine (29,585)14 and L.”
• Long‐distance colonization of the Western Mediterranean by Cistus ladanifer (Cistaceae) despite the absence of special dispersal mechanisms (2009, methodology): “In addition, we estimated divergence times of Cistus lineages based on previously generated ITS and trnK-matK sequences (Guzmán & Vargas, 2005) and on a new set of rbcL sequences used successfully in angiosperm phylogenies (Wikström et al., 2001; Bell & Donoghue, 2005; Lavin et al., 2005; Linder et ”
• Recent assembly of the Cerrado, a neotropical plant diversity hotspot, by in situ evolution of adaptations to fire (2009, methodology): “The dating procedure was built upon previous studies (55, 56) that used a set of well-documented fossils for calibration but with the addition of two new mimosoid fossil constraints.”
