Xanthium is a genus of annual herbaceous plants that stands out within Asteraceae for being wind‐pollinated, diclinous monoecious, and bearing solitary pistillate flowers in peculiar spiny structures (burs). Xanthium sect. Acanthoxanthium is native to South America and characterized by the presence of trifurcate spines at the base of the leaves. Past taxonomic treatments of the section have been contradictory, some recognising up to six species, others reducing all to a single polymorphic species. Altogether, 42 samples of X. sect. Acanthoxanthium were analysed, the vast majority taken from herbarium specimens between 20 and 160 years old. We sampled multiple specimens of X. spinosum from throughout its broad range as well as those taxa with narrower distributions, covering the whole range of morphological variation in the section. When possible, we included types and original material. We used Hyb‐Seq techniques to obtain information from about 1000 single‐copy nuclear genes and complete plastomes. Phylogenomic data were submitted to coalescent‐based species delimitation approaches (SPEEDEMON). Additionally, we performed geometric morphometric analysis of leaf outlines. The results strongly support the identification of four lineages in the section favouring the acceptance of four of the hitherto described species, i.e., X. ambrosioides, X. argenteum, X. catharticum, and X. spinosum. These results were to some extent corroborated by morphometric analyses. While X. ambrosioides was well distinct from X. spinosum based on leaf morphology, such difference was not observed between X. spinosum and X. catharticum. However, X. catharticum differs from X. spinosum in its ecological requirements, being a species rather adapted to high‐mountain environments of the Neotropics. Intriguingly, X. argenteum – a taxon described from a single herbarium collection – was also inferred as a species.

The species boundaries in Hypochaeris sect. Seriola (Asteraceae, Cichorieae) are difficult to establish due to the phenotypic similarity between taxa. The main objective of the present study was to characterize the phylogenetic position of the annual Hypochaeris achyrophorus using plastid and nuclear DNA markers, and to determine whether some morphological differences between western and eastern Mediterranean populations are supported by genetic differences. To achieve this, phylogenetic reconstruction, species delimitation analysis and morphometrical analysis of flower characters were carried out. The case provides a fantastic setting to study the evolution of annuality/perenniality and homocarpy/heterocarpy. The results confirm the presence of two distinct taxa within H. achyrophorus: Hypochaeris stuessyi comb. nov., in the westernmost part of the distribution, containing populations with the most ancestral characters, and H. achyrophorus, with biogeographically and morphologically distinct characters, phylogenetically closer to H. laevigata, a perennial species, than to H. stuessyi. Our results indicate that perennial habit and homocarpy are derived characters in the study group that can appear multiple times in evolution, complicating traditional taxonomy. Moreover, when related species with convergent characters are observed, only the use of molecular tools can confirm that subtle morphological differences have distinct evolutionary histories.

The genus Xanthocyparis was described in 2002 for a new conifer species X. vietnamensis from northern Vietnam, which became well‐known for its rarity. Recently, natural diploid populations were found in a small area of northern Guangxi, China, whereas material from Vietnam plus newly discovered populations from southern Guangxi were determined to be tetraploids. We integrated evidence from multiple data sources to perform a taxonomic evaluation of the two ploidy levels present in Xanthocyparis. Morphometric analyses detected statistically significant differences in cone and leaf characters, whereas microsatellite and transcriptome analyses revealed clear genetic divergence between diploid and tetraploid material. Furthermore, analysis of bioclimatic variables confirmed divergence in ecological niches. Gene trees from homologous sequences indicate that tetraploid material might have arisen via allopolyploidy from the extant diploid material and a third, possibly extinct lineage. Therefore, we recognize and describe a new diploid species from northern Guangxi China: Xanthocyparis guangxiensis.

<jats:italic>Asplenium</jats:italic> is one of the most species‐rich genera of ferns. While ubiquitous polyploidy and hybridization events, as well as vast distribution ranges, contribute to its remarkable diversity, these facts also lead to extreme classification difficulties. The <jats:italic>A. exiguum</jats:italic> complex is a natural morphological assemblage of taxa sharing part or all ancestral genomes due to polyploidy and hybridization. Consisting of 4 to 13 taxa mainly distributed in the Sino‐Himalayan region, taxonomic issues of this complex have been debatable for a long time. Here, we collected 49 samples representing the majority of the recognized taxa and reconstructed phylogenetic trees using two plastid loci (<jats:italic>rbcL</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>rpl32‐trnP</jats:italic>) and three nuclear loci (<jats:italic>pgiC</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>SQD1</jats:italic>, nrDNA). Evidence from ploidy, macro‐ and micromorphology, geographical pattern, and ecological niche was also integrated to illuminate the species boundaries and evolutionary history within the complex. According to our investigation, six taxa, including two diploid species (<jats:italic>A. barkamense</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>A. lushanense</jats:italic>), three tetraploid species (<jats:italic>A. exiguum</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>A. glenniei</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>A. nesii</jats:italic>), and one triploid nothospecies (<jats:italic>A.</jats:italic> ×<jats:italic>mickelii</jats:italic>), are accepted. <jats:italic>Asplenium barkamense</jats:italic>, which used to be treated as a synonym of <jats:italic>A. nesii</jats:italic> in <jats:italic>Flora of China</jats:italic>, is an independent species and the common diploid progenitor of autotetraploid <jats:italic>A. nesii</jats:italic> and allotetraploid <jats:italic>A. glenniei</jats:italic>. Moreover, <jats:italic>A. glenniei</jats:italic> (= <jats:italic>A. yunnanense</jats:italic>), widespread in the subtropical and temperate regions of East Asia and occasionally seen in the southwestern United States, Mexico, and northern Guatemala of North America, is an allotetraploid originated from <jats:italic>A. barkamense</jats:italic> and <jats:italic>A. lushanense</jats:italic>, whereas <jats:italic>A. exiguum</jats:italic>, known with a narrow distribution in tropical Asia, is a putative autotetraploid offspring of <jats:italic>A. lushanense</jats:italic>.

Asplenium 是物种最丰富的蕨类植物属之一。无处不在的多倍体和杂交事件以及广阔的分布范围造就了其显著的多样性，但这些事实也导致了极度的分类困难。由于多倍体和杂交，A. exiguum复合体是一个由共享部分或全部祖先基因组的类群组成的自然形态集合体。该复合体由 4 至 13 个类群组成，主要分布在中国-喜马拉雅地区，其分类问题一直存在争议。在此，我们采集了 49 个样本，代表了大部分已确认的类群，并利用两个质体位点（rbcL、rpl32-trnP）和三个核位点（pgiC、SQD1、nrDNA）重建了系统发生树。我们还综合了倍性、宏观和微观形态、地理格局和生态位等方面的证据，以阐明该复合体的物种边界和进化历史。根据我们的调查，有六个类群被接受，包括两个二倍体种（A. barkamense、A. lushanense）、三个四倍体种（A. exiguum、A. glenniei、A. nesii）和一个三倍体非物种（A. ×mickelii）。在《中国植物志》中，Asplenium barkamense 曾被视为 A. nesii 的异名，但它是一个独立种，也是自交四倍体 A. nesii 和异交四倍体 A. glenniei 的共同二倍体祖先。此外，A. glenniei（= A. yunnanense）广泛分布于东亚的亚热带和温带地区，偶尔也见于美国西南部、墨西哥和北美危地马拉北部，它是由 A. barkamense 和 A. lushanense 演化而来的异源四倍体，而 A. exiguum（已知在亚洲热带地区分布较窄）则是 A. lushanense 的推定自交系后代。因此，A. glenniei 从 A. exiguum 中恢复为独立种。作为 A. lushanense 和 A. glenniei 的不育杂交种，Asplenium ×mickelii 得到了支持。此外，我们的研究表明，该复合体中的大多数物种分化事件可能发生在横断山脉，那里复杂的造山活动和气候振荡促进了地理隔离和多倍体的建立。与亲本相比，A. nesii和A. glenniei这两个四倍体适应了不同的气候条件，并在更广的范围内定居。

The overarching aim of the present study is to sort out the taxonomy of a group of gingers that include the useful and worldwide economically important green cardamom, Elettaria cardamomum, and its wild relatives, to highlight potentially overlooked genetic resources. These species occur naturally in India and Sri Lanka, and our study facilitates more appropriate management priorities for the remaining forest fragments in which they occur. We used NGS Hyb‐Seq methods and sampled four species of the Alpinia I (Fax) clade, six representatives of Aframomum and Renealmia as well as two other basally flowering Sri Lankan species. This is the only pantropically distributed lineage within the entire family, and our result shows that the Alpinia I clade in fact is simply the genus Elettaria (confined to India and Sri Lanka), which is sister to the genera Aframomum (Africa) and Renealmia (Africa and Neotropics). The taxonomic implications are: (1) a recircumscription of Elettaria comprising seven species (E. cardamomum, E. ensal, E. floribunda, E. involucrata, E. rufescens as well as two new species, E. facifera and E. tulipifera described here); (2) the Sri Lankan endemic genus Cyphostigma should be retained; (3) the new monotypic genus, Srilankanthus endemic in Sri Lanka, is described with S. nemoralis, formerly Amomum nemorale, as type. A key is provided to the seven species of Elettaria and lectotypifications are made for five species (Cyphostigma pulchellum, Elettaria floribunda, E. involucrata, E. nemoralis, E. rufescens).

The taxonomic implications are: (1) a recircumscription of <jats:italic>Elettaria</jats:italic> comprising seven species (<jats:italic>E. cardamomum</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>E. ensal</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>E. floribunda</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>E. involucrata</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>E. rufescens</jats:italic> as well as two new species, <jats:italic>E. facifera</jats:italic> and <jats:italic>E. tulipifera</jats:italic> described here); (2) the Sri Lankan endemic genus <jats:italic>Cyphostigma</jats:italic> should be retained; (3) the new monotypic genus, <jats:italic>Srilankanthus</jats:italic> endemic in Sri Lanka, is described with <jats:italic>S. nemoralis</jats:italic>, formerly <jats:italic>Amomum nemorale</jats:italic>, as type. A key is provided to the seven species of <jats:italic>Elettaria</jats:italic> and lectotypifications are made for five species (<jats:italic>Cyphostigma pulchellum</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>Elettaria floribunda</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>E. involucrata</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>E. nemoralis</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>E. rufescens</jats:italic>).","PeriodicalId":49448,"journal":{"name":"Taxon","volume":"66 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142218708","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
