Systematic review reveals refined evolutionary relationships in extant gymnosperms, highlighting a revised multi-rank taxonomic framework.

Key Points

To review major advances in gymnosperm phylogenomics over the past decade and establish an updated, comprehensive classification for living gymnosperm lineages.
Reviewed phylogenetic advances in gymnosperms over a 10-year period.
Assessed evolutionary relationships inferred from high-throughput sequencing datasets, including complete plastomes and single-copy nuclear genes.
Established an updated classification system comprising three classes (Cycadopsida, Ginkgoopsida, and Pinopsida), five subclasses, eight orders, 13 families, and 86 genera.
Described six new tribes: Acmopyleae, Austrocedreae, Chamaecyparideae, Microcachrydeae, Papuacedreae, and Prumnopityeae.
Designated 27 new species-level combinations within the conifer genus Sabina.
