Angelica is a taxonomically complex genus widespread throughout the North Temperate Zone.Previous phylogenetic studies of the genus have focused primarily on its East Asian species.The relationships among its North Am...
As a medicinal herb,Atractylodes macrocephala Koidz.experienced centuries of cultivation in China,and germplasm resources of all cultivated populations have degraded over time as a consequence of domestication process...
Daphne blagayana is a small decumbent bush from the family Thymelaeaceae with a fragmented distribution range, comprising the Balkan Peninsula and the southern Romanian Carpathians. Due to its rarity it is protected b...
Chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) is most often maternally inherited and highly conserved leading to previous observation of little to no sequence variation. Comparing cpDNA haplotypes have provided valuable insight into the ...
Chimonanthus praecox (L.) Link is a widely cultivated endemic winter-flowering plant in China that has a long cultivation history. Genetic diversity and genetic structure were compared between wild and cultivated gr...
Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle, a temperate tree species, has a wide distribution in China. To infer its refugia and patterns of migration during past climatic changes in China, genetic variations among different...
Ruppia is a cosmopolitan genus and the species identity within the genus has been often confusing due to high plasticity in morphology. We used nuclear ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer and seven chloroplast D...
Nuclear ribosomal ITS and four cpDNA intergenic spacer sequences were used to assess how the patterns of molecular differentiation are related to taxonomic boundaries and geographic distribution in polymorphic and tax...
