Abstract The classification of the legume family proposed here addresses long‐known non‐monophyly traditionally recognised subfamily Caesalpinioideae, by recognising six robustly supported monophyletic subfamilies. This new uses as its framework most comprehensive phylogenetic analyses legumes to date, based on plastid matK gene sequences, and including near‐complete sampling genera (698 currently 765 genera) ca. 20% (3696) known species. region has been widely sequenced across legumes, in...
Premise of research. The genus Mucuna has a pantropical distribution and comprises approximately 105 species, many which show great economic value for forage, ornament, medicine. To date, phylogenetic relationships within have not been investigated using molecular data. aim this study was to build framework address questions about its monophyly, infrageneric relationships, divergence times, biogeography.Methodology. We sequenced plastid (trnL-F) nuclear ribosomal (internal transcribed...
The genus Mucuna comprises approximately 105 tropical and sub-tropical species, with the highest diversity occurring in Paleotropics. In Neotropics, 13 new species have been described recently a number of regional floras published. A recent floristic treatment for Colombia has summarized found but since then many geographical records complete taxonomic all neotropical an identification key to taxa is currently lacking. aim this study present account Neotropics. Descriptions 25 (24 one...
Recent molecular phylogenetic studies have revealed Chaetocalyx DC. as a paraphyletic genus with Nissolia Jacq. nested within it, based on both nuclear ribosomal and plastid evidence. Considering the morphological similarity among species of these two genera, which are vegetatively almost indistinguishable, we here transferring to Nissolia. Type information for all accepted in its new circumscription is presented, including 16 lectotype designations designation one epitype. Diagnostic...
A new species of Mucuna from Costa Rica and Panama is described illustrated. monticola mainly known the highlands Cordilleras Guanacaste, Tilarán, Central Talamanca in Rica, particular Chiriqui area. It superficially similar to mutisiana M. killipiana, but it differs both multiple aspects its morphology unique among Neotropical pod, which larger longer with conspicuous irregular lamellae or reticulate-ridged, not constricted between seeds.
Abstract The previous infrageneric classification of Mucuna (Leguminosae, Papilionoideae) recognized two subgenera, M. subg. and Stizolobium, but that is not supported fully by molecular phylogenetic analyses, which reveal three main clades in (rather than the traditional two). A new taxon Macrocarpa proposed based on results a analysis, fruit characters biogeography. Historically, representatives this subgenus were considered as members Mucuna, species differ from other subgenera their...
This study aimed to compare the genetic diversity of populations Solanum lycocarpum A.St.-Hil between natural and human disturbed environments, with assumption that protected areas have greater than areas. For this study, two were sampled in Goiás State, Brazil. One was located a conservation unit, Serra de Caldas Novas State Park, municipality. The other pasture area municipality Morrinhos. are 41 km apart. We 60 individuals from each population, which genotyped five microsatellite loci...
Solanum lycocarpum is a woody tree widely distributed in the Cerrado that reaches high population densities disturbed environments.We examined genetic diversity and differentiation of six S. populations with different degrees human disturbance order to determine if they are negatively affected by anthropogenic activity.Three located southern three southeastern regions Goiás State, Central Brazil, were genotyped five microsatellite markers.The protected area had higher number alleles (26)...
In advance of a comprehensive systematic study New World Mucuna, we provide taxonomic revision the species Mucuna that occur in Brazil. A new species, analucianae, endemic to eastern and central Brazil, is described illustrated. huberi designated as synonym M. elliptica, lectotype for elliptica chosen. pluricostata considered be pruriens, eriocarpa excluded from genus. We recognize seven only two which are country. Two assessed endangered (EN) according IUCN criteria. Keywords—Leguminosae,...
O presente trabalho teve por objetivo avaliar a arborização urbana em três municípios situados no Sul do estado de Goiás: Morrinhos, Goiatuba e Caldas Novas. Para isso, foram sorteadas quinze ruas cada município, cujas calçadas das casas visitadas e, registrada presença ou ausência árvores. Quando foi feita identificação da espécie. Foram 263 Novas, 354 286 Morrinhos. A cidade que apresentou maior porcentagem plantas Goiatuba, com 54,51%, seguida pela 52,44%, 36,12%. Porém relação número...
Mucuna jarocha, a new species of endemic to Mexico, is here described and illustrated. It similar M. holtonii, but the wing petals are shorter than standard in holtonii longer this species.
Abstract Systematic studies of Neotropical species Mucuna are relatively scarce. As a precursor to further taxonomic this genus, we here propose lectotypes for seven New World taxa.
