[Display omitted] •Current classification of flowering plants is mostly based on plastid phylogenies.•Plastid phylogenies are inferred with full/partial genome and maximum likelihood.•Gene trees are often incongruent with the species tree inferred with plastid data.•Phylogenetic signal varies across...
