(Received on March 2, 2010)

Phylogenetic relationships of 35 species and one subspecies of Lespedeza and four species representing related genera (2 species of , 1 species of and 1 species of ) in tribe (Leguminosae) were explored with chloroplast DNA sequences of trnL intron and trnL-trnF intergenic spacer regions. Maximum parsimony, neighbor joining and maximum likelihood analyses constructed trees of almost the same topologies resolving 1) the monophyly of Lespedeza and Kummerowia, 2) the two main clades of Lespedeza consisted of Asian species and North American species, 3) two main clades in North American species, and 4) the monophyly of subgenus Macrolespedeza. The monophyly of the Lespedeza and that of the subgenus Lespedeza were not supported by the present results. The two main clades dividing the genus Lespedeza are supported by seedling morphology. Moreover, the two main clades of North American species are congruent with the traditional separation into two groups based on the color and morphology of flowers. The intercontinental relationships between North American and Asian species proposed by Maximowicz (1873) were not supported by the present study, while the separation of Asian species from North American ones by Schindler (1913) was almost supported. The present result suggests that earlier divergence had occurred in Asia resulting into two lineages in Lespedeza, and then one of them remained in Asia and the other migrated to North America. After the isolation of both lineages speciation had occurred independently in Asia and North America.

Key words: Asia, cpDNA, disjunct distribution, Kummerowia, Leguminosae, Lespedeza, molecular phylogeny, North America, trnL-trnF.

The genus Lespedeza comprises ca. 35 Malesia and eastern North America (Ohashi species of shrubs and perennial herbs distributed 2005). Although Lespedeza had been attributed in two disjunct areas: Asia to Australia through to tribe Desmodieae subtribe Lespedezinae

The main RFLPs analysis of cpDNA (Nemoto et al. 1995) difference of these two groups is the presence or showed that Phylacium is very different from absence of cleistogamous flowers.

Among them, series Junceae and Pilosa i.e., first two foliage leaves subsequent to consist only of Asian species, while Violaceae cotyledons are usually opposite in Asian species and Lespedezaria consist of both Asian and regardless of two subgenera, while they are North American species, i.e., series Violaceae alternate in North American species.

The present result is incongruent Therefore the alternate seedling type is a with Maximowicz's (1873) treatment of series synapomorphy for North American species of Violaceae and Lespedezaria, but reveals the Lespedeza. separation of Asian species and North American ones in both series. Schindler (1913) proposed Relationship among Asian Lespedeza a phylogenetic diagram showing relationships Within the Asian clade (Clade A), three among species of the subgenus Lespedeza.

Clade F is composed of species first lineage consists of all Asian species except attributed to the subgenus Macrolespedeza.

These clades are incongruent Schindler (1913) separated all Asian species with interspecies relationships presented by except L. tomentosa from those two series of Schindler (1913) (Fig. 1A) or any infrageneric Maximowicz (1873) and combines almost all taxa (Nakai 1927, Akiyama 1988, Ohashi et al.

Clade C and Clade G were resolved of Asian species from North American ones among Asian species of the subgenus Lespedeza. is almost supported by the present result. The Clade C composed of L. virgata, L. floribunda two lineages, that were recognized in North and L. chinensis is supported better than Clade G American species for the first time by Torrey composed of L. cuneata, L. daurica, L. forrestii, and Gray (1840) as sections Lespedeza and L. juncea, L. inschanica and L. tomentosa.

The American form a species, Clades D and E, correspond to two relatively close knit group of species whose taxa, sects. Lespedeza (as Eulespedeza) and precise intra-specific limits are sometimes Lespedezaria by Torrey and Gray (1840) difficult to define and it is frequently said that the or series Violaceae and Lespedezariae by American lespedezas hybridize with one another Maximowicz (1873), that have been often (Isely 1955). The species are mostly well- distinguished among North American species defined, but identifications are complicated by mainly on the basis of flower color (purple infraspecific polymorphism and by ubiquitous vs. white) and the relative length of corolla to interspecific hybridization (Isely 1998). Clewell calyx (corolla at least twice as long as calyx vs. (1966a) recognized 33 interspecific hybrid corolla slightly longer than calyx). Moreover, combinations of 55 possible ones.

The base number Biogeographical implications on disjunct of the tribe Phaseoleae is also regarded as x distribution of Lespedeza = 11 (Goldblatt 1981). In Campylotropis the Lespedeza has been known as a genus numbers of n = 11, 2n = 22, 23 (Index to Plant representing the well-known disjunct Chromosome Numbers Data Base accessed on distribution pattern between eastern Asia and 8 Jan. 2010) and in Kummerowia the numbers eastern North America (Gray 1846, Li 1952, of 2n = 20, 22 (Nishikawa 2008, Index to Plant Wu 1983, Boufford and Sponberg 1983, Wen Chromosome Numbers Data Base accessed on 1999). Like many other disjunct genera (Wen 8 Jan. 2010) have been reported.

Among these counts the number of n = subtribe Desmodiinae except Desmodium and 11 or 2n = 22 is assumed to be plesiomorphic, are distributed in the Old World and others to be apomorphic in Lespedeza. and most diverse in tropical S and SE Asia as Within Lespedeza the chromosome number of well as Campylotorpis and Kummerowia of the n = 11 or 2n = 22 was reported commonly in subtribe Lespedezinae (Ohashi 2005), we can subgenus Macrolespedeza (Akiyama 1988), infer that the ancestor of Lespedeza was borne in while apomorphic numbers of n = 10 or 2n Asia, early diversification occurred in Asia, and = 20 were dominantly reported in both Asian then one of the lineages diversified was followed and North American species of the subgenus by unidirectional migration/dispersion to North Lespedeza, especially the number 2n = 20 or n America, perhaps via the Bering land bridge like = 10 has been determined in all North American other temperate deciduous representing species (Clewell 1964, 1966a).
