Toward a better understanding of phylogenetic relationships within Conringieae (Brassicaceae).

One new tribe (Plagiolobeae), one new species () together with two new combinations () are established within Brassicaceae based on a decisive consideration of molecular phylogenetic dataset, morphological characters, fruit septum nature, as well as seed microsculpturing features. Results distinctly justified as a synonym of and further molecular analyses proved its placement as a member of genus . It is also placed in a new tribe Plagiolobeae as close relatives of Conringieae and Coluteocarpeae.
