Phylogeny, molecular dating, comparison of IR expansions and trnI-CAU copy number based on complete plastome DNA sequences from Melanthiaceae. a Phylogenetic relationships within Melanthiaceae based on complete cp genome sequences. Patterns of IR expansion and copy number of trnL-CAU for each species were mapped along the tree. Numbers above/under the tree branches represent BS and PP values/(mean divergent ages). Arrows indicated the calibrating points for molecular dating. Horizontal blue bars on each node indicate the 95% confidence interval of divergence time. Numbers on the Time Axis indicate million year ago (Mya). b Three types of IR/LSC expansions were detected in the plastomes within Melanthiaceae. c Single-copies, duplicates, and triplicates of the trnI-CAU gene were found in the plastomes within Melanthiaceae
