Towards a new classification system for legumes: Progress report from the 6th International Legume Conference
(Elsevier, 2013)
Legume systematists have been making great progress in understanding evolutionary relationships within the Leguminosae (Fabaceae), the third largest family of flowering plants. As the phylogenetic picture has become clearer, ...
Hitting the right target: taxonomic challenges for, and of, plant invasions
(Oxford University Press, 2013)
This paper explores how a lack of taxonomic expertise, and by implication a dearth of taxonomic products
such as identification tools, has hindered progress in understanding andmanaging biological invasions. It also ...
Two new species of Trachyandra sect. Liriothamnus (Xanthorrhoeaceae, Asphodeloideae) from the Western and Eastern Cape Provinces of South Africa
(2013)
Trachyandra eriocarpa and T. bulbosa are two new species from Northern and Eastern Cape Provinces of South Africa.
They are placed in T. sect. Liriothamnus based on their wiry roots, the cataphylls not forming membranous ...
A global infrageneric classification system for the genus Crotalaria (Leguminosae) based on molecular and morphological evidence
(Botanischer Garten und Botanisches Museum, 2013)
Crotalaria is a large genus of 702 species with its centre of diversity in tropical Africa and Madagascar and secondary radiations in other parts of the world. The current infrageneric classification system is based on ...
Reconstructing the deep-branching relationships of the papilionoid legumes
(Elsevier, 2013)
Resolving the phylogenetic relationships of the deep nodes of papilionoid legumes (Papilionoideae) is essential to understanding the evolutionary history and diversification of this economically and ecologically important ...
