Vietnamese Spondias has remained taxonomically unresolved and the infrageneric relationship within the genus has been disputed. Here, we present molecular phylogenetic analyses of this genus and its close relatives using a combined dataset of the chloroplast rbcL, matK, and trnL-F regions. Molecular analyses strongly supported the monophyly of Spondias with two major clades and Vietnamese Spondias was placed within Asian Spondias clade. Based on both morphological and molecular data, we recognized two species of Spondias: S. dulcis Parkinson and S. pinnata (L. f.) Kurz in Vietnam. The key and description for Vietnamese Spondias species were provided. We also suggested to recognize Spondias petelotii as a synonym of Allospondias lakonensis.

Việc sắp xếp phân loại và tìm hiểu mối quan hệ di truyền của chi Cóc ở Việt Nam là chưa rõ ràng và còn tồn tại một số vấn đề. Nghiên cứu này tiến hành phân tích mối quan hệ phát sinh loài của chi Cóc và họ hàng gần gũi của chi này dựa trên dữ liệu sinh học phân tử là các đoạn gen lục lạp rbcL, matK, và trnL-F. Kết quả phân tích dữ liệu phân tử ủng hộ mạnh mẽ rằng chi Cóc là chi đơn phát sinh với hai nhánh phát sinh chính là nhánh Cóc Nam Mỹ và nhánh Cóc châu Á; Cóc Việt Nam nằm trong nhánh Cóc châu Á. Dựa trên cả dữ liệu phân tử và hình thái, nghiên cứu này ghi nhận Cóc Việt Nam bao gồm hai loài: Spondias dulcis Parkinson và Spondias pinnata (L. f.) Kurz. Khóa định loại và mô tả cho các loài Cóc Việt Nam được cung cấp. Nghiên cứu này cũng chỉ ra rằng Spondias petelotii là đồng nghĩa của Allospondias lakonensis.

Introduction philippinensis is similar to the genus Spondias L., the type genus of the subfamily Solenocarpus such as: eucamptodromous Spondiadoideae Kunth ex Arn., is a small secondary venation, single narrowly flabellate genus of fruit trees of Anacardiaceae with 18 style, single stigma, unicarpellate ovary, species [1]. Members of Spondias are mainly strongly oblique fruit. Futhermore, S. distributed in tropical Asia, America and one philippinensis and Solenocarpus indicus species in Madagascar. The Spondias species Wight & Arn. morphologically share floral show significant economic importance with features such as: apert calyx, valvate corolla, various fruits that are used both as human and single narrowly flabellate style. Thus, animal food [2]. Spondias philippinensis should be kept out of Spondias and placed in Solenocarpus. In The taxonomic history of Spondias was quite addition, Haplospondias brandisiana (Kurz) complex. Spondias was one of the first genera Kosterm. was considered as distinct from of Anacardiaceae described by Linnaeus with Spondias based on simple leaves without an the type species S. mombin L. published in intramarginal vein and a single style with an 1753 [1]. Bentham & Hooker (1862) [3] oblique stigma [1]. divided the family Anacardiaceae into two tribes, the Anacardieae and Spondieae. Michell & Daly (2015) [1] also disscused to Subsequently, Marchand (1869) [4] published Solenocarpus indicus and Spondias dulcis. the tribe Spondiadeae (as Spondieae) and was They emphasized that the placement of the first to formulate a relatively modern Spondias dulcis in Evia is not correct, this concept of Spondias, in which he included species should be treated as a member of Evia Blume, Cytheraea Wight & Arn. and Spondias based on both morphologycal and Wirtgenia Jung. ex Hassk. On the other hand, molecular data; while, Solenocarpus indicus of the taxa he either accepted in Spondias or Wight & Arn. should be separated from recognized as synonyms of species in the Spondias [1]. Additionaly, the situations of genus, four are considered here to belong to Spondias philippinensis, Haplospondias other genera [4]. brandisiana and Spondias bipinnata are uncertain, but they are likely belonging to In the revision of tropical Asian Spondias, Spondias [1]. Airy-Shaw & Forman (1967) [5] lumped Allospondias and Solenocarpus with a rather Min & Barfod (2008) [8] recognized two broadly defined Spondias. In contrast, species of Spondias in China S. pinnata and S. Kostermans (1981, 1991) defined the genera lakonensis, in which S. lakonensis includes of the Spondiadoideae rather narrowly, two varieties, S. lakonensis var. lakonensis maintaining Allospondias and Solenocarpus, and S. lakonensis var. hirsuta. transferring Spondias philippinensis (Elmer) Chayamarit (1997) [9] studied phylogeny of Airy-Shaw and Forman to the latter, Anacardiaceae (including Spondias) in describing the new genus Haplospondias and Thailand based on molecular data. However, formally returning the South Pacific species taxon sampling and sequences (only rbcL) of Spondias dulcis Parkinson into the pre- this study were limited. The result of the existing genus Evia Comm. ex Blume emend. study showed close relationship between Kosterm [6], [7]. Spondias and Dracontomelon. Michell & Daly (2015) [1] suggested that Silva et al., (2015) [2] conducted a Allospondias lakonensis (Pierre) Stapf (syn.: phylogenetic study for neotropical species of Spondias lakonensis Pierre var. lakonensis) the genus Spondias. Six species of Spondias should be removed from Spondias based on from neotropic were sampled and three the structure of leaves and flowers such as: makers rbcL, matK and trnH-psbA spacer lack of an intramarginal vein and presence of were applied. The result indicated that perpendicular epimedial tertiary veins, styles neotropical Spondias were divided into two connivent at anthesis and stigmas extrorse on clades. The first clade includes, Spondias the developing fruit, lack of a fibrous matrix mombin and S. purpurea L. while the second on the endocarp. The morphology of S. clade includes, S. cytherea Sonn., S. tuberosa 34 http://jst.tnu.edu.vn; Email: [email protected] Lê Chí Toàn và Đtg Tạp chí KHOA HỌC & CÔNG NGHỆ ĐHTN 207(14): 33 - 40 Arruda, S. venulosa (Engl.)

Moreover, the author Bayesian inference (BI) methods were also noted that he did not observed S. mombin employed for the phylogenetic analyses of in Vietnam. Up to now, the studies of Vietnamese Spondias. The ML trees were taxonomy and phylogeny of Vietnamese generated by performing a rapid bootstrap Spondias are limited, thus the relationship analysis in RAxML v.8.2.8 [16], [17] with the between Spondia species in Vietnam is still GTR + I + G substitution model applying unclear and merits further morphological and 1000 bootstrap replicates.
