In this article, we present a revised taxonomic circumscription of Aconitum subg. Aconitum (Ranunculaceae) in Europe. In total, the subgenus contains some 250 species with the major center of diversity in Eastern Asia. Altogether 94 taxa (species and infraspecific taxa, including hybrids) occur in Europe. Among them, 22 are native species, and 28 are nothospecies (including hybrid formulae). The research is based on former (since Linnaeus) and recent species diagnoses integrating herbarium and field studies carried out in the Alps, Carpathians, Balkans, Spanish Sierra Nevada, Sudetes, and Corsica. The subgenus includes three sections in Europe: the diploid sect. Cammarum, the tetraploid sect. Aconitum, and the monospecific, allopolyploid sect. Angustifolium. Additionally, a triploid, hybridogenous nothosection Acomarum (sect. Aconitum × sect. Cammarum) is presented. For each species, type citation, a concise morphological description, including infraspecific variation and hybridization, geographical distribution, and iconography sources are given. Also, a key to the determination of all taxa is presented. The proposed system scrutinizes former and recent species concepts and gives a base for further studies on the genus’ phylogeny and biotechnology.

Phylogeny of Aconitum Subgenus Aconitum in Europe

et al. 2020

Phylogenetic relations within Aconitum subgen. Aconitum (Ranunculaceae) in Europe are still unclear. To infer the phylogeny of the nuclear (ITS) region and chloroplast intergenic spacer trnL(UAG)-ndhF of the chloroplast DNA (cpDNA), we analyzed 64 accessions within this taxon, 58 from Europe and six from the Caucasus Mts. Nuclear ITS sequences were identical in 51 European and two Caucasian accessions, whereas the remaining sequences were unique. cpDNA sequences could be categorized into five haplotypes, i.e., A–E, including a European-Caucasian Aconitum haplotype B. Ten cpDNA sequences were unique. A 5-bp indel distinguished the diploids from the tetraploids. None of the extant European diploids were basal to the tetraploid local group. A phylogenetic tree based on combined ITS and cpDNA sequences (bayesian inference, maximum likelihood, minimal parsimony) placed Aconitum burnatii (Maritime Alps, Massif Central) and A. nevadense (Sierra Nevada, Pyrenees) in a sister group to all other European species. A Bayesian relaxed clock model estimated the earliest split of the Caucasian species during the Late Miocene [ca. 7 million years ago (Mya)], and the divergence of A. burnatii and A. nevadense from the European genetic stock during the Miocene/Pliocene (ca. 4.4 Mya). Diploids in Europe are likely to be descendants of the Miocene European-Caucasian flora linked with the ancient Asian (arctiotertiary) genetic stock. The origins of the tetraploids remain unclear, and it is possible that some tetraploids originated from local, now extinct diploids. Both the diploids and tetraploids underwent rapid differentiation in the Late Pliocene – Quaternary period.

Chromosome numbers for two studied taxa of sec. Aconitum from the Eastern/Southern Carpathians: A. bucoviniense Zapał. (2n = 32) and A. ×nanum (Baumg.) Simonk. (2n = 32) are given for the � rst time. The chro-Simonk. (2n = 32) are given for the �rst time. The chromosome numbers of A. firmum Rchb. subsp. firmum (2n =32), subsp. maninense (Skalický) Starmühl. (2n = 32), subsp. moravicum (2n = 32) and subsp. fissurae Nyar. (2n = 32) are con�rmed. In the case of the latest subspecies the number of the chromosomes are stated for the �rst time for the Carpathians. The geographical distribution and the hybridogenous origin of this particular taxa is discussed.
