Phylogenetics, divergence times and diversification from three genomic partitions in monocots (2015, background): “Estimates of the age of extant monocots based exclusively on fossil evidence tend to be younger, c. 90 Mya (Crepet, Nixon & Gandolfo, 2004), although the ancestors of monocots were present from the Early Cretaceous (Smith, 2013).”
OCBIL theory: towards an integrated understanding of the evolution, ecology and conservation of biodiversity on old, climatically buffered, infertile landscapes (2009, background): “Indeed, the Southwest Australian Floristic Region’s Dasypogonales (APG II 2003; Janssen and Bremer 2004—both treat the Dasypogonaceae as an unplaced family) are the world’s most localised plant order (one species of Calectasia is found in South Australia/Victoria but all other taxa are confined to…”
Highlights in Seagrasses’ Phylogeny, Physiology, and Metabolism: What Makes Them Special? (2012, background): “The Cymodoceaceae have a crown node age of 61 Mya and a stem node age of 67 Mya, the Hydrocharitaceae a crown node age of 75 Mya and a stem node age of 88 Mya, for the Posidoniaceae only a stem node age of 67 Mya can be estimated, and the Zosteraceae appeared only recently with a crown node age of 1”
Iridaceae ‘Out of Australasia’? Phylogeny, Biogeography, and Divergence Time Based on Plastid DNA Sequences (2008, background): “An older age of 103 my has also been proposed by Janssen and Bremer (2004) for the root node of Iridaceae.”
Biogeographical patterns of plants in the Neotropics – dispersal rather than plate tectonics is most explanatory (2013, background): “Another likely relict distribution can be found in Strelitziaceae, a family with a crown group that may be sufficiently old to be Gondwanan (stem and crown groups dated at 78 and 59 Mya, respectively; Janssen & Bremer, 2004), with Phenakospermum guianense (Rich.)”
Genome Size Dynamics and Evolution in Monocots (2010, neutral): “89 mya) [176].”
The Patterns and Causes of Variation in Plant Nucleotide Substitution Rates (2011, neutral): “Applying this equation to molecular data has yielded insights into the age of entities that lack an extensive fossil record, e.g., the monocots ( Janssen & Bremer 2004).”
Global biogeography and diversification of palms sheds light on the evolution of tropical lineages. I. Historical biogeography (2013, result): “Although influenced by the constraint of 110– 120 Ma applied to the root node of palms (Couvreur et al., 2011a), our estimate falls within the range reported for palms by previous authors (Bremer, 2000; Wikstrom et al., 2001; Janssen & Bremer, 2004).”
Has Vicariance or Dispersal Been the Predominant Biogeographic Force in Madagascar? Only Time Will Tell (2006, result): “This result is not surprising in light of the several divergence time analyses suggesting that the majority of angiosperm families with Malagasy elements are relatively young (Anderson et al. 2005, Bremer et al. 2004, Davis et al. 2005, Janssen & Bremer 2004).”
Climate cooling promoted the expansion and radiation of a threatened group of South American orchids (Epidendroideae: Laeliinae) (2010, background): “[4] unquestionably constituted a milestone in orchid research, the large discrepancies in age estimates obtained in the last decade some 80 Ma between the youngest [2] and oldest [5] crown ages - suggests that the matter is probably not completely settled.”
Phylogeny of the leafhopper subfamily Deltocephalinae (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) based on molecular and morphological data with a revised family‐group classification (2010, background): “The timing of the evolution of this clade is also of interest, as it would allow a comparison with timing of the origin of grasses and sedges (76–88 mya; Janssen & Bremer, 2004) and of the origin and spread of grasslands (15–30 mya; Jacobs et al., 1999; Strömberg, 2005).”
Biogeographical diversification of mainland Asian Dendrobium (Orchidaceae) and its implications for the historical dynamics of evergreen broad‐leaved forests (2016, neutral): “According to our results, the crown age of Orchidaceae diverged at 93 Ma (95% HPD: 83–102), and it is younger than the crown age estimated by Janssen & Bremer (2004) (111 Ma), but older than the estimates of Ram ırez et al. (2007) and Bouetard et al. (2010) [76 5 and 83 Ma (95% HPD: 68–104)…”
Polyploidy and angiosperm diversification. (2009, neutral): “…) is not only close to the molecular estimates for the age of the family (ca. 89 and 83 million years for stem and crown group Poaceae, respectively; Janssen and Bremer, 2004 ; see also Bremer, 2002 ), but also similar to the age of grass fossils (55 million years; Crepet and Feldman, 1991 )…”
