Abstract:This study uses phylogenetic relationships of the species-rich section
Astragalus (Incani), to follow up on recent evidence pointing to rapid and
recent plant diversification patterns in the west of Iran. Section Incani is
introduced for its taxonomic complication resulting from overlapping
morphological characters, but few studies have been done on this section;
hence, we also lack a robust time-calibrated chronogram to address
hypotheses (e.g., biogeography and diversification rates) that h… Show more
