“…Crisci et al (1990; nrDNA restriction sites), Sytsma at al. (1991b; cpDNA restriction sites), and Bult and Zimmer (1993; nrRNA sequence data) placed Hauya as sister to Circaea 1 Fuchsia, whereas Martin and Dowd (1986; amino acid sequence data) and Hoch et al (1993;morphology) placed Hauya in a clade with tribes Onagreae and Epilobieae. In contrast, Conti et al (1993; SYSTEMATIC BOTANY data) placed Hauya as sister to all Onagraceae excluding Ludwigia.…”

“…To date there have been several molecular (Martin and Dowd 1986;Crisci et al 1990;Sytsma et al 1991b;Bult and Zimmer 1993;Conti et al 1993) and morphological (Hoch et al 1993) phylogenetic studies of the family, although only recently has there been a molecular study that included members of all Onagraceae genera (Levin et al 2003). There have also been various phylogenetic studies of individual genera within the family, including Fuchsia Smith 1988, 1992;Sytsma et al 1991a; P. Berry et al, U. WisconsinMadison, in mss.…”

ABSTRACT. Onagraceae are a family of 17 genera in seven tribes, with the majority of species in tribes Onagreae and Epilobieae. Despite the species-richness of these two tribes, to date no phylogenetic study has been done with suf cient taxon sampling to examine relationships between and within these tribes. In this study, we used DNA sequence data from one nuclear region (ITS) and two chloroplast regions (trnL-trnF and rps16) to infer phylogenetic relationships among 93 taxa across the family, with concentrated sampling in the large tribe Onagreae. Results strongly suggest that tribe Gongylocarpeae is sister to tribes Epilobieae 1 Onagreae, both of which are monophyletic. Within Onagreae, Camissonia seems to be broadly paraphyletic, and Oenothera is also paraphyletic. In Oenothera there appear to be two lineages, one of which has Gaura 1 Stenosiphon nested within it. At the base of the Onagraceae phylogeny, we have clari ed previous confusion regarding con icting placements of Hauya and Lopezia based on nuclear versus chloroplast data. Results of these analyses are supported by morphology and suggest the need for new taxonomic delimitations, which are forthcoming.

“…Ludwigia shares the plesiomorphic Met-Lys N-terminal amino acids of the nuclear-encoded rbcS polypeptide with all other angiosperm taxa (mostly from Myrtales) analyzed by Martin & Dowd (1986), whereas the rest of Onagraceae are clearly set apart from Ludwigia by the distinctive and synapomorphic PheAsn N-terminus.…”

“…The cladistic analyses carried out on such data have produced cladograms based on chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) restriction sites (Sytsma et al,199 ib), nuclear ribosomal RNA (nrRNA) sequences (Bult & Zimmer, 1993), nuclear ribosomal DNA (nrDNA) restriction sites (Crisci et al, 1990), amino acid sequences of the nuclear-encoded small subunit of ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase (rbcS; Martin & Dowd, 1986), and morphology (Hoch et al, 1993). These trees are congruent in indicating Ludwigia (tribe Jussiaeeae) as the sister group to the rest of the family but show some disagreement in the relationships among the other tribes.…”

Despite intensive morphological and chemical studies on the Myrtales, the circumscription of the order remains poorly defined. To test the monophyly of Myrtales sensu Dahlgren and Thorne (Annals of the Missouri Botanical Garden 71: 633‐694, 1984), determine the relationships of some controversial families, and identify the most likely sister group of Myrtales, we conducted parsimony analyses on 80 rbcL sequences representing 36 taxa from families traditionally included in Myrtales and 44 taxa from other Rosidae. The consensus tree resulting from these analyses supports the monophyly of Myrtales and is substantially congruent with the circumscription of the order proposed by Dahlgren and Thorne (Annals of the Missouri Botanical Garden 71: 633‐694, 1984), with one notable exception: in the rbcL tree Vochysiaceae are placed in Myrtales. A reanalysis of morphological attributes of Vochysiaceae revealed that the inclusion of the family in Myrtales is also supported by the combined occurrence of two typical myrtalean features of the wood: vestured pits and bicollateral vascular bundles. Furthermore, our analyses excluded Thymelaeaceae, Lecythidaceae, Haloragaceae, and Gunneraceae from Myrtales, suggesting that the association of these families with Myrtales, as previously proposed by other authors, may not reflect common ancestry. Finally, our analyses support a sister group relationship between the order Myrtales and a clade formed by an expanded Malvales, Sapindales, and an expanded Capparales.
