Nomenclatural changes and taxonomic notes in the tribe Morindeae (Rubiaceae)

This study presents descriptions of the newly delimited Gynochthodes and Morinda, and 78 new combinations and three new names of the tribe Morindeae in the subfamily Rubioideae (Rubiaceae) as a result of two recent molecular phylogenetic studies.

Phylogenetic position of Guihaiothamnus (Rubiaceae): its evolutionary and ecological implications.

Phylogeny and generic limits in the sister tribes Psychotrieae and Palicoureeae (Rubiaceae): Evolution of schizocarps in Psychotria and origins of bacterial leaf nodules of the Malagasy species.

A widely circumscribed Psychotria encompassing the entire Psychotrieae is supported, with two separate origins of schizocarps from drupes, one reversal back to the drupaceous condition, and two independent origins of the Malagasy leaf-nodulated species are inferred.

Phylogeny of the Madagascar-centred tribe Danaideae (Rubiaceae) as a precursor to taxonomic revision: insights into its generic and species limits, affinities and distribution

There are tentative indications of parallel northward diversification in Payera and Schismatoclada on Madagascar, and of geographical phylogenetic clustering despite the anemochorous condition of Danaideae.

The identity of the long-overlooked Ronabea morindoides and Patabea tenuiflora, synonymous with a species of Appunia (Rubiaceae)

Taxonomic review of this group in the Guianas finds that Ronabea morindoides is an older name for Appunia brachycalyx (Bremek.) Steyerm.

Systematics, taxonomy and floristics of Brazilian Rubiaceae: an overview about the current status and future challenges

The present work is to offer an overall view of the most recent family classification with emphasis on the genera of Rubiaceae occurring in Brazil, and to indicate particular taxa that are still in need of phylogenetic and taxonomic studies.

Geographical origin and sexual-system evolution of the androdioecious plant Gynochthodes boninensis (Rubiaceae), endemic to the Bonin Islands, Japan.

Molecular phylogenetics and biogeography of the eastern Asian–eastern North American disjunct Mitchella and its close relative Damnacanthus (Rubiaceae, Mitchelleae)

P phylogenetic and biogeographical analyses for Mitchella and its close relative Damnacanthus based on sequences of the nuclear internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and four plastid markers suggest that the genus originated in eastern Asia and migrated to North America via the Bering land bridge in the late Miocene.

Phylogeny, evolutionary trends and classification of the Spathelia-Ptaeroxylon clade: morphological and molecular insights.

The Spathelia-Ptaeroxylon clade is well placed in Rutaceae and it is reasonable to unite the genera into one subfamily (Spathelioideae), and a new tribal classification of Spat Helioidae is proposed.

Phylogeny and biogeography of Spathelioideae (Rutaceae)

The results of this thesis show that Spathelioideae are a monophyletic sister clade to the Rutaceae family, a group of seven small Sapindalean genera with remarkable morphological diversity.

Phylogeny and classification of the subfamily Rubioideae (Rubiaceae)

P phylogenetic analyses of the subfamily Rubioideae (Rubiaceae) based on three different pieces of chloroplast DNA, the protein coding rbcL gene, the spacer sequence betweenatpB andrbcL, and the recently published rps16 intron data are performed.

Polyphyly of Mussaenda inferred from ITS and trnT-F data and its implication for generic limits in Mussaendeae (Rubiaceae).

The studies strongly suggest an African origin of the newly circumscribed Mussaenda, whereas Bremeria can be distinguished from the remaining Mussaendeae genera by having both reduplicates- and induplicate-valvate aestivation and densely pubescent styles.

The genus Morinda (Morindeae, Rubioideae, Rubiaceae) in New Caledonia: taxonomy and phylogeny

In this revision of Morinda in New Caledonia fourteen species are recognized, one of which is subdivided into four varieties, and one new variety, M. myrtifolia var.

Phylogeny and classification of Naucleeae s.l. (Rubiaceae) inferred from molecular (ITS, rBCL, and tRNT-F) and morphological data.

The study supports the monophyly of the subtribes Anthocephalidae, Mitragynae, Uncariae all sensu Haviland and Naucleinae sensu Ridsdale and results were inconclusive for assessing the relationships among Adina, Adinauclea, Metadina, and Pertusadina.

Naucleeae sensu Ridsdale and Hymenodictyoneae were shown to be monophyletic without support in the morphology- and combined ITS-rbcL-morphology-based trees.

Revision of the genus Caelospermum Blume (Rubiaceae, Rubioideae, Morindeae)

The genus Caelospermum Blume is revised, and a key to the 7 species recognized is presented, and all species are illustrated with line drawings, and distribution maps are provided.

Pollen morphology of the tribe Morindeae (Rubiaceae)

A detailed account of the pollen morphology of 32 species from 10 genera in the tribe Morindeae (Rubiaceae) of which most of the genera are stenopalynous, whereas Morinda, in particular, is markedly eurypalynous.

PHYLOGENY OF GAERTNERA LAM. (RUBIACEAE) BASED ON MULTIPLE DNA MARKERS: EVIDENCE OF A RAPID RADIATION IN A WIDESPREAD, MORPHOLOGICALLY DIVERSE GENUS

  • 2002
Phylogenetic relationships among 28 of the 68 species of the paleotropical genus Gaertnera (Rubiaceae) and two related genera were inferred from nucleotide sequence variation in four nuclear DNA (nDNA) markers, resulting in an unusually rapid lineage diversification rate within the radiation.
