Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation The tree from morphological data is congruent with trees from macromolecular studies in recovering a well-supported glucosinolate-producing clade and an expanded Sapindales.
- Observation The combined morphological and molecular analysis is generally well resolved, with support for many relationships.
- Method / resource Inserting the fossil taxon Dressiantha demonstrates the value of fossil evidence in phylogenetic analyses.
- Observation The fossil Dressiantha appears to be related to the Anacardiaceae and not to the Brassicales.
- Observation The core Brassicales are well supported by a number of synapomorphies.
- Observation The internal position of Tovariaceae and Pentadiplandraceae is not well resolved.
- Recommendation Several well supported clades within Brassicales and Sapindales merit ordinal or subordinal status, which would place the present orders at a higher level.
- Observation The present scheme of affinities within Brassicales corresponds well with a gradual morphological evolution in the order.
