چکیده

the taxonomic and phylogenetic status of several taxa previously recognized as subspecies inastragalus sect. anthylloidei is re-assessed based on dna sequences and morphologicalfeatures. we focused on astragalus ebenoides (subsp. ebenoides and subsp. naghadehensis),astragalus murinus (subsp. murins and subsp. bornmuelleri), astragalus remotiflorus (subsp.remotiflorus and subsp. melanogramma), astragalus nigrohirsutus (=astragalus remotiflorussubsp. nigrohirsutus), astragalus submitis (=astragalus submitis subsp. submitis) andastragalus yushensis (=astragalus submitis subsp. maassoumii). a total of 15 accessionsrepresenting 14 ingroups and one outgroup were analysed for nrdna its and plastid dna,rpl32 gene and rpl32-trnl(uag) intergenic spacer. phylogenetic trees were constructed usingneighbour joining, bayesian and maximum parsimony methods. the phylogenetic analyses ofboth datasets revealed that the subspecies described formerly under each of the studied speciesare distinct and should be elevated to specific rank. the nucleotide sequence variationsobserved among different subspecies, along with morphological characters, providedappropriate criteria in setting the species boundaries. the new combinations and a diagnostickey to the studied species are provided.

Phylogeny of some species of Astragalus (Fabaceae) based on morphological data

The phylogenetic relationships among 39 species belonging to 12 sections of Astragalus from Iran were studied on the basis of 29 morphological characters. The cladistics analysis of the morphological data was performed using PAUP* 4.0b10 program. The obtained data were compared with the molecular systematics data obtained from nuclear DNA ITS. In contrast with previous molecular systematic stud...

Roles of rhizobial symbionts in selenium hyperaccumulation in Astragalus (Fabaceae).

PREMISE OF THE STUDY Are there dimensions of symbiotic root interactions that are overlooked because plant mineral nutrition is the foundation and, perhaps too often, the sole explanation through which we view these relationships? In this paper we investigate how the root nodule symbiosis in selenium (Se) hyperaccumulator and nonaccumulator Astragalus species influences plant selenium (Se) accu...

Population genetics of Astragalus bibullatus (Fabaceae) using AFLPs.

Astragalus bibullatus (Fabaceae) is an endangered plant species endemic to limestone cedar glades in Tennessee. Data from 134 amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) fragments indicate that populations of this species are genetically very similar, with genetic identity values ranging from 0.976 to 0.991. Approximately 10% of the species' total genetic variation is due to differences among...

Karyotype Analyses of Four Astragalus L. (fabaceae) Species from Turkey

Astragalus L. is a perennial herbaceous genus belonging to the family Fabaceae. Chromosome morphology was defined for the first time in four species of Astragalus namely; A. antalyensis A.Duran & Podlech, A. nezaketae A.Duran & Aytaç, A. cariensis Boiss. & A. schizopterus Boiss. All species contained diploid chromosome numbers of 2n = 16. However, polyploid cells (4x = 32) were also observed in...
