Phylogenetic Matrices for 113 Orobanchaceae Species

Phylogenetic matrices derived from plastomes of 113 members of the Orobanchaceae plant family. The dataset was created by Tang Yu-Hao and last updated on June 2, 2026. It was used to assess the effects of rate heterogeneity, alignment, and missing data on phylogenetic inference.

Use Cases

• Reconstructing phylogenetic trees based on plastome sequence data.
• Assessing the influence of alignment methods on phylogenetic stability.
• Evaluating the impact of species and locus sampling on inferred evolutionary relationships.
• Testing the effects of data trimming (TrimAL) on phylogenetic results.

Strengths

• Includes data for 113 species, providing a broad taxonomic sample.
• Dataset size is 1.3 GB, suggesting substantial sequence or matrix data.
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for reuse.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
