Data supporting the nuclear phylogenomics of the palm subfamily Arecoideae (Arecaceae)

Abstract

This data article provides data and supplemental materials referenced in “Nuclear phylogenomics of the palm subfamily Arecoideae (Arecaceae)” (Comer et al., 2016) [1]. Raw sequence reads generated for this study are available through the Sequence Read Archive (SRA Study Accession: SRP061467). An aligned supermatrix of 168 nuclear genes for 35 taxa (34 palms and one outgroup taxon) is provided. Also provided are individual maximum likelihood gene trees used for the coalescent based analyses, output from the maximum parsimony analyses, and two figures. Keywords: Ancestral area, Arecaceae, Arecoideae, Coalescent, Nuclear phylogeny, Targeted sequencing
