Polygonum sensu lato

Phylogeny and systematics of Indian Polygonum sensu lato in the subfamily Polygonoideae based on ITS sequences of nuclear ribosomal DNA

R. K. Choudhary, Park, S. - H., and Lee, J., Phylogeny and systematics of Indian Polygonum sensu lato in the subfamily Polygonoideae based on ITS sequences of nuclear ribosomal DNA, vol. 11, pp. 4370-4382, 2012.

The nuclear ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences from 44 Indian Polygonum taxa were examined to investigate relationships among various sections proposed by earlier researchers. The maximum parsimony trees obtained from analysis of the ITS sequences suggested eight major groups of the Indian Polygonum spp. The relationships among different sections were largely congruent with those inferred from morphological characters as described by Hooker.
