Speciation and diversification of the (Apiaceae) in East Asia.

, belonging to the Apiaceae, is widely distributed across the Eurasian continent. The origin and species diversification of in East Asia, remain incompletely resolved due to the limited samples in previous studies. To address these issues, we have reconstructed a robust phylogenetic framework for in East Asia based on the ITS and three plastid genes.

Evolution and Taxonomic Significance of Seed Micromorphology in (Balsaminaceae).

is one of the most species-rich genera of angiosperms, with more than 1,000 species distributed in Eurasia and Africa. Previous studies have shown that seeds of display enormous morphological diversity, and seed micromorphology may contribute to the classification of those species. However, the micromorphological seed coat characteristics of seeds have not been systematically studied.
