About Daniel L. Nickrent at Southern Illinois University Carbondale

Based at Southern Illinois University Carbondale, Daniel L. Nickrent focuses their scholarly efforts on parasitic plants, plant evolution, systematics, biodiversity, Santalales, mistletoes, phylogenetics, genomics, bridging the gap between theory and practice in parasitic plants. A representative example of their recent contribution is the study titled "Plastome evolution in Santalales involves relaxed selection prior to loss of <i>ndh</i> genes and major boundary shifts of the inverted repeat", which offers critical insights into the dynamics of parasitic plants and plant evolution. Additional work such as "Evolutionary relationships in Santalales inferred using target capture with Angiosperms353, focusing on Australasian Santalaceae sensu lato" further demonstrates their commitment to advancing knowledge in this domain.
