Molecular phylogeny of Ceropegia (Asclepiadoideae, Apocynaceae) from Indian Western Ghats
TLDR
It can be concluded that the classical morphology-based delineation of the two Ceropegia and Brachystelma needs revision to reflect their phylogenetic relationships, which are more in accordance with their geographical origin than with morphology.
CEROPEGIA (APOCYNACEAE, CEROPEGIEAE, STAPELIINAE): PARAPHYLETIC BUT STILL TAXONOMICALLY SOUND1
TLDR
It is proposed that the current taxonomy of the Ceropegia genus be maintained in the absence of adequate morphological, anatomical, or karyological characters supporting a taxonomic reclassification of the genus in accordance with the retrieved clades of the phylogenetic analysis.
