Several genome-partitioning strategies to sequence selected subsets of the genome have emerged in the fields of phylogenomics and evolutionary genomics. In this review, we summarize the applications, advantages and limitations of four NGS-based genome- partitioning approaches in plant phylogenomics: genome skimming, transcriptome sequencing (RNA- seq), restriction site associated DNA sequencing (RAD-Seq), and targeted capture (Hyb-seq). Of these four genome-partitioning approaches, targeted capture (especially Hyb-seq) shows the greatest promise for plant phy^ogenetics over the next fex~ years. This reviex~ wi~ aid ~esea^chers in their selection of appropriate genome-partitioning approaches to address questions of evolutionary scale, where we anticipate continued development and expansion ofwhole-genome sequencing strategies in the fields of plant phylogenomics and evolutionary biology research.展开更多
