Barking up the wrong tree:
de Almeida RF, Pellegrini MO, de Morais IL, Simão-Bianchini R, Rattanakrajang P, Cheek M, Simões ARG (2023) Barking up the wrong tree: the dangers of taxonomic misidentification in molecular phylogenetic studies. Plant Ecology and Evolution 156(2): 146-159. https://doi.org/10.5091/plecevo.101135
A very interesting article, recently published, talking about how DNA contamination of samples led to placement of an angiospermic genus in a wrong family and how many of the publications on plant phylogenomics, now a days do not even care to consult a good taxonomist to confirm the correct identity of their specimens.
Interesting article.
Yes, the need of the hour.
