Multiplexed exon capture in the Zingiberales including sampling from each of the 8 families enriched on a single microarray

The complete genome of Musa acuminata and transcriptome information from each of the other seven families of Zingiberales were used to design a set of nuclear loci that can be enriched from highly divergent taxa with a single array-based capture of indexed genomic DNA. A total of 494 exons from 418 nuclear genes were captured for 53 ingroup taxa. The entire plastid genome was also captured for the same 53 taxa. The dataset was used to find phylogenetic relationships among the families of the Zingiberales.
