Chemotaxonomy of the Family Compositae (Asteraceae)

1971
Only very few plant families exist, that are as rich in species as the family Compositae. The number of its species is estimated nowadays to be more than 20000. This number alone makes their classification rather difficult. It is true that the individual tribes, as defined in the system of Cassini (1826; 1829; 1834) and Bentham (1873) and later by ...

Most Compositae (Asteraceae) are descendants of a paleohexaploid and all share a paleotetraploid ancestor with the Calyceraceae

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, 2016
Like many other flowering plants, members of the Compositae (Asteraceae) have a polyploid ancestry. Previous analyses found evidence for an ancient duplication or possibly triplication in the early evolutionary history of the family.

Universal markers for comparative mapping and phylogenetic analysis in the Asteraceae (Compositae)

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2007
The development of universal markers that can be assayed across taxa, but which are polymorphic within taxa, can facilitate both comparative map-based studies and phylogenetic analyses. Here we describe the development of such markers for use in the Asteraceae, which includes the crops lettuce, sunflower, and safflower as well as dozens of locally ...

The taxonomy of Haastia (Compositae : Asteraceae)

1996
The taxonomy of the genus Haastia is investigated in preparation for a formal revision. Morphological and anatomical character states are analysed using numerical phenetic techniques; biochemical, ecological and geographical information is also utilised. Two new taxa are proposed; one new species and a new variety of Haastia sinclairii.
