Polyphyly of Boehmeria (Urticaceae) congruent with plastome structural variation [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceBoehmeria is a taxonomically challenging group within the nettle family (Urticaceae). The polyphyly of the genus has been proposed by previous studies with respect to five genera (Debregeasia, Cypholophus, Sarcochlamys, Archiboehmeria, and Astrothalamus).
