Target sequence data shed new light on the infrafamilial classification of Araceae [PDF]
American Journal of Botany, Volume 110, Issue 2, February 2023., 2023 Abstract Premise Recent phylogenetic studies of the Araceae have confirmed the position of the duckweeds nested within the aroids, and the monophyly of a clade containing all the unisexual flowered aroids plus the bisexual‐flowered Calla palustris. The main objective of the present study was to better resolve the deep phylogenetic relationships among ...
