Abstract

The use of diverse datasets in phylogenetic studies aiming for understanding evolutionary histories of species can yield conflicting inference. Phylogenetic conflicts observed in animal and plant systems have often been explained by hybridization, incomplete lineage sorting (ILS), or horizontal gene transfer. Here, we employed target enrichment data and species tree and species network approaches to infer the backbone phylogeny of the family Caprifoliaceae, while distinguishing among sources of incongruence. We used 713 nuclear loci and 46 protein-coding sequences of plastome data from 43 samples representing 38 species from all major clades to reconstruct the phylogeny of the group using concatenation and coalescence approaches. We found significant nuclear gene tree conflict as well as cytonuclear discordance. Additionally, coalescent simulations and phylogenetic species network analyses suggest putative ancient hybridization among subfamilies of Caprifoliaceae, which seems to be the main source of phylogenetic discordance. Ancestral state reconstruction of six morphological characters revealed some homoplasy for each character examined. By dating the branching events, we inferred the origin of Caprifoliaceae at approximately 69.38 Ma in the late Cretaceous. By integrating evidence from molecular phylogeny, divergence times, and morphology, we herein recognize Zabelioideae as a new subfamily in Caprifoliaceae. This work shows the necessity to use a combination of multiple approaches to identify the sources of gene tree discordance. Our study also highlights the importance of using data from both nuclear and chloroplast genomes to reconstruct deep and shallow phylogenies of plants.
