  • Outline of Angiosperm Phylogeny
    Outline of angiosperm phylogeny: orders, families, and representative genera with emphasis on Oregon native plants Priscilla Spears December 2013 The following listing gives an introduction to the phylogenetic classification of the flowering plants that has emerged in recent decades, and which is based on nucleic acid sequences as well as morphological and developmental data. This listing emphasizes temperate families of the Northern Hemisphere and is meant as an overview with examples of Oregon native plants. It includes many exotic genera that are grown in Oregon as ornamentals plus other plants of interest worldwide. The genera that are Oregon natives are printed in a blue font. Genera that are exotics are shown in black, however genera in blue may also contain non-native species. Names separated by a slash are alternatives or else the nomenclature is in flux. When several genera have the same common name, the names are separated by commas. The order of the family names is from the linear listing of families in the APG III report. For further information, see the references on the last page. Basal Angiosperms (ANITA grade) Amborellales Amborellaceae, sole family, the earliest branch of flowering plants, a shrub native to New Caledonia – Amborella Nymphaeales Hydatellaceae – aquatics from Australasia, previously classified as a grass Cabombaceae (water shield – Brasenia, fanwort – Cabomba) Nymphaeaceae (water lilies – Nymphaea; pond lilies – Nuphar) Austrobaileyales Schisandraceae (wild sarsaparilla, star vine – Schisandra; Japanese

  • Complete Chloroplast Genomes Shed Light on Phylogenetic
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Complete chloroplast genomes shed light on phylogenetic relationships, divergence time, and biogeography of Allioideae (Amaryllidaceae) Ju Namgung1,4, Hoang Dang Khoa Do1,2,4, Changkyun Kim1, Hyeok Jae Choi3 & Joo‑Hwan Kim1* Allioideae includes economically important bulb crops such as garlic, onion, leeks, and some ornamental plants in Amaryllidaceae. Here, we reported the complete chloroplast genome (cpDNA) sequences of 17 species of Allioideae, fve of Amaryllidoideae, and one of Agapanthoideae. These cpDNA sequences represent 80 protein‑coding, 30 tRNA, and four rRNA genes, and range from 151,808 to 159,998 bp in length. Loss and pseudogenization of multiple genes (i.e., rps2, infA, and rpl22) appear to have occurred multiple times during the evolution of Alloideae. Additionally, eight mutation hotspots, including rps15-ycf1, rps16-trnQ-UUG, petG-trnW-CCA , psbA upstream, rpl32- trnL-UAG , ycf1, rpl22, matK, and ndhF, were identifed in the studied Allium species. Additionally, we present the frst phylogenomic analysis among the four tribes of Allioideae based on 74 cpDNA coding regions of 21 species of Allioideae, fve species of Amaryllidoideae, one species of Agapanthoideae, and fve species representing selected members of Asparagales. Our molecular phylogenomic results strongly support the monophyly of Allioideae, which is sister to Amaryllioideae. Within Allioideae, Tulbaghieae was sister to Gilliesieae‑Leucocoryneae whereas Allieae was sister to the clade of Tulbaghieae‑ Gilliesieae‑Leucocoryneae. Molecular dating analyses revealed the crown age of Allioideae in the Eocene (40.1 mya) followed by diferentiation of Allieae in the early Miocene (21.3 mya). The split of Gilliesieae from Leucocoryneae was estimated at 16.5 mya.

    Mulford's milkvetch (Astragalus mulfordiae) ENDANGERED Flowers and fruit (left), habit (center), and habitat (right) of Mulford’s milkvetch. Photos by Andrea Thorpe (left) and Nancy Fredricks (center and right). If downloading images from this website, please credit the photographer. Family Fabaceae Plant description Mulford’s milkvetch is a perennial species with a long taproot and clustered, slender, wiry, thinly strigose stems, 3–20 cm long, arising from a woody, many-branched caudex. Leaves are 4–10 cm long including the petiole, with a flattened rachis and 11- 23 linear to elliptic leaflets, 0.3–0.8 cm long and nearly glabrous. Flowers are scattered, 5–20, in loose racemes on peduncles 5–8 cm long. The calyx is 0.28-0.5 cm long, strigose, with narrow triangular-subulate teeth slightly shorter than the tube. The corolla is whitish, drying yellow, the banner often bluish to purple lined or tinged, 0.5- 0.9 cm long. Pods are horizontally spreading, papery, inflated, 0.8-1.5 cm long, beaked, and almost triangular in cross-section. Valves are strigose and finely cross- veined, the ventral suture straight or curved slightly, the dorsal suture strongly curved. The slender stipe is 0.2-0.3 cm long. Distinguishing characteristics Mulford’s milkvetch is distinguished from the other Astragalus species with which it occurs by its small whitish flowers, its connate, sheath-forming lower stipules, and its pendulous, stipitate, three-faced pods. When to survey Surveys for Mulford’s milkvetch should be performed from May through June when the species is flowering and/or fruiting.
