“…A large number of potential hybridization and polyploidization have been proposed based chromosome numbers (e.g., Manton and Sledge, 1954;Abraham et al, 1962;Patnaik and Panigrahi, 1963;Hovenkamp, 1986), morphology (e.g., Serizawa, 1970;Beppu and Serizawa, 1982), and most recently molecular data (Choi and Park, 2016) in Pyrrosia. Notably, previous studies suggest that hybridization and polyploidization are mainly found in the Neoniphopsis clade.…”
