Research paper thumbnail of Phytogeny and reclassification of the genus Lapsana (Asteraceae: Lactuceae)

The genus is redefined to include only the European to S. W. Asian Lapsana communis and its allied taxa usually treated as subspecies. The four E. Asian species formerly placed in Lapsana are transferred to a new genus, Lapsanastrum, and the new combinations L. apogonoides, L. humile, L. takasei, and L. uncinatum are made.

A phylogeny of 73 taxa representing all genera of Colchicaceae, except the monotypic Kuntheria, is presented. The molecular analysis based on three plastid regions—the rps16 intron, the atpB-rbcL intergenic spacer, and the trnL-F region—reveal the intrafamilial classification to be in need of revision. The two tribes Iphigenieae and Uvularieae are demon-strated to be paraphyletic. The well-known genus Colchicum is shown to be nested within Androcymbium, Onixotis constitutes a grade between Neodregea and Wurmbea, and Gloriosa is intermixed with species of Littonia. Two new tribes are described, Burchardieae and Tripladenieae, and the two tribes Colchiceae and Uvularieae are emended, leaving four tribes in the family. At generic level new combinations are made in Wurmbea and Gloriosa in order to render them monophyletic. The genus Androcymbium is paraphyletic in relation to Colchicum and the latter genus is therefore expanded. An investigation of the distribution of colchicine within the expanded Colchicaceae is conducted to evaluate the potential of colchicine as a synapomorphy of the re-circumscribed family. The results demonstrate presence of colchicine in all genera previously not examined in Colchicaceae and in the genus Burchardia, earlier reported to lack colchicine. Hence, demonstrating colchicine to be a synapomorphy for the family. An attempt to date the phylogeny of the order Liliales together with a dispersal-vicariance (DIVA) analysis indicates that the split between Colchicaceae and Alstromeriaceae-Luzuriagaceae represents a vicariance event following the disintegration of the Australian-Antarctican-South American link, ~34 million years ago. Further, the DIVA analysis indicates that Colchicaceae originated in Australia, first reached Asia and North America, and later Africa, from where they expanded to Europe and also dispersed back to Australia.

Research paper thumbnail of A Phylogenetic Study of the Order Asterales Using One Morphological and Three Molecular Data Sets

Most clades were supported by a jackknife value of at least 50% and a Bremer support of 5 or more. Rousseaceae sensu lato (including Carpodetaceae), together with Pentaphragmataceae and Campanulaceae s.l., is the sister group to the rest of the Asterales. A sister group relationship between Donatia and Stylidiaceae is well supported both morphologically and by molecular data, and we suggest that Donatia should again be treated as a subfamily in Stylidiaceae. The sister group relationship between Calyceraceae and Asteraceae is well supported.
