This project aims to reconstruct the evolutionary history of the Physalideae tribe within the nightshade family, focusing on the relationship between fruiting calyx innovations and biogeographic patterns. It combines molecular phylogenetics with fossil data to understand diversification and distribution across the Amer…
The nightshade family, Solanaceae, at once illustrates the common challenges of molecular dating and presents a prime opportunity for expanding knowledge of biogeography and evolutionary history.
Its most widely diverse tribe, Physalideae, contains roughly 300 species mostly distributed in South America, half of them with fruit key innovations known as the inflated fruiting calyx.
The same structures are present in the oldest fossils of the family, recently discovered in the south of South Ameri…
