Chloroplast and nuclear ribosomal cistron phylogenomics in a group of closely related sections in Salvia subg. Calosphace

Sage phylogenies have not resolved many shallow level clades within problematic Salvia subgenus Calosphace, hindered by the difficulty in finding sufficiently variable loci. We assembled fifteen chloroplast genomes and nuclear ribosomal cistrons from non-target reads of a nuclear hybrid enrichment project to assess the phylogenetic utility for a closely related group of mainly Mexican sections. Chloroplast synteny is confirmed with 10 Lamiales...
