Next-generation sequencing data for the phylogenomics and genome size evolution of the genus Amomum s.s. (Zingiberaceae)

Hybridization-based target enrichment (Hyb-Seq) was used to obtain sequences from up to 449 putatively orthologous low-copy nuclear genes and nearly-complete chloroplast genomes. Robust and highly supported species tree was recovered and used to model the evolution of genome size.
