Evidence for Congruent Three-Genome Phylogenetic Signals for Four Botanical Sections of the Flax Genus Linum

Previous studies of phylogenetic relationships of plant species using DNA sequences from organelle and nuclear genomes frequently reported incongruent phylogenetic signals. Our presentation will show the evidence for congruent three-genome phylogenetic signals for four botanical sections of the flax genus Linum. It was obtained through the development of a multiplexed shotgun sequencing (MSS) protocol and 3GenomeSNP pipeline to assess the phylogenetic relationships of 18 Linum samples representing 16 species within four botanical sections of the genus. Also, we will present the MSS protocol and 3GenomeSNP pipeline and discuss their utility in acquisition of three-genome phylogenetic signals of non-model organisms
