Incompatibility Phylogenetic Signals between Double-Digest Restriction Site-Associated DNA Sequencing and Plastid Genomes in Chinese Curcuma (Zingiberaceae)—A Recent Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau Diversification Genera.

Curcuma is of high economic value, credited to its medicinal, edible, and ornamental properties, which possess all signatures of adaptability, and rapid radiation, especially species of Curcuma (Chinese Curcuma, a recent Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau diversification genera) scattered in China. However, little is known about the incongruent phylogenetic signals within this genera from different inheritance patterns that will militate against the further development of this genera. In this research, we applied complete chloroplast genome data together with double-digest restriction site-associated DNA sequencing data (ddRAD-seq) strategy to investigate phylogenetic signals of Chinese Curcuma species, clustering using two RAD analysis pipelines (STACKS and pyRAD). Phylogenetic trees were obtained from each locus based on the maximum likelihood (ML) and multispecies coalescent (BEAST) methods. For visual comparison, multi-method and different datasets were used to infer the phylogeny. We discovered inconsistent relationships for the Chinese Curcuma with varying degrees of support using different methods and datasets. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
