Angiosperm phylogeny: 17 genes, 640 taxa

Angiosperm phylogeny: 17 genes, 640 taxa. Our analyses confirm that with large amounts of sequence data, most deep-level relationships within the angiosperms can be resolved. We anticipate that this well-resolved angiosperm tree will be of broad utility for many areas of biology, including physiology, ecology, paleobiology, and genomics.
