PREMISE OF THE STUDY: The Campanulaceae are a diverse clade of flowering plants encompassing more than 2300 species in myriad habitats from tropical rainforests to arctic tundra. A robust, multigene phylogeny, including all major lineages, is presented to provide a broad, evolutionary perspective of this cosmopolitan clade. METHODS: We used a phylogenetic framework, in combination with divergence dating, ancestral range estimation, chromosome modeling, and morphological character reconstruction analyses to infer phylogenetic placement and timing of major biogeographic, genomic, and morphological changes in the history of the group and provide insights into the diversification of this clade across six continents. KEY RESULTS: Ancestral range estimation supports an out-of-Africa diversification following the Cretaceous-Tertiary extinction event. Chromosomal modeling, with corroboration from the distribution of synonymous substitutions among gene duplicates, provides evidence for as many as 20 genome-wide ... : Alignment_Campanulaceae_all_genes_datasetAll_genes_dataset.fastaAlignment_Campanulaceae_coding_only_datasetCoding_only_dataset.fastaAlignment_Campanulaceae_plastid_only_datasetPlastid_only_dataset.fastaFlwrSym_MatrixPollenPresent_AntherArrangement_MatrixPollenPresent_Invagination_MatrixPollenPresent_Mechanism_MatrixPollenPresent_StylarGrowth_Matrix ...
