PREMISE OF THE STUDY Hesperolinon (western flax; Linaceae) is endemic to the western United States, where it is notable for its high and geographically concentrated species diversity on serpentine-derived soils and for its use as a model system in disease ecology. We used a phylogenetic framework to test a long-standing hypothesis that Hesperolinon is a neoendemic radiation. METHODS Five plastid and two ribosomal nuclear DNA gene regions were sampled from 105 populations of Hesperolinon… CONTINUE READING
