Interfamilial relationships in order Fabales: new insights from the nuclear regions sqd1 and 26S rDNA
Leguminosae, Polygalaceae, Quillajaceae and Surianaceae together comprise the order Fabales. Phylogenetic relationships within Fabales remain an unsolved problem even though interfamilial relationships have been examined in a number of studies using different sampling approaches and both molecular and morphological data. In this study, we gather information from the nuclear 26S...Aygoren Uluer, Deniz ; Hawkins, Julie A. ; Forest, Félix

Molecular phylogenetic insights into the evolution of Eriosema (Fabaceae): a recent tropical savanna-adapted genus
Eriosema comprises c. 150 species and has a pantropical distribution and two centres of diversity, Africa and America. The species occur in tropical savannas and grasslands, including the cerrado in Brazil. They have adapted to these environments by developing specialized underground organs, and an abundance of trichomes. Here we present... -

Hybrid capture of 964 nuclear genes resolves evolutionary relationships in the mimosoid legumes and reveals the polytomous origins of a large pantropical radiation
PREMISE Targeted enrichment methods facilitate sequencing of hundreds of nuclear loci to enhance phylogenetic resolution and elucidate why some parts of the “tree of life” are difficult (if not impossible) to resolve. The mimosoid legumes are a prominent pantropical clade of ~3300 species of woody angiosperms for which previous phylogenies... -

Conservation priorities for African Vigna species: Unveiling Angola’s diversity hotspots
It is widely recognized that the conservation of the Crop Wild Relatives (CWR) in their wild habitats is fundamental to ensure the continuous supply of novel genetic material, crucial for future crop improvement. Vigna unguiculata (cowpea) and V. subterranea (bambara groundnut) are amongst the most significant African legumes as sources...Catarino, Silvia ; Rangel, Josefa ; Darbyshire, Iain ; Costa, Esperança ; Duarte, Maria Cristina …

The Bean Bag no. 1
Historical Note: The First International Congress of Systematic and Evolutionary Biology (ICSEB) was something new under the sun in several respects. For the first time it brought together botanical and zoological practitioners of systematics for the interchange of ideas, philosophy, methodology, and goals; this was the principal purpose of the...Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew
