Wisterieae
Wisterieae is a Tribe (biology), tribe of flowering plants in the bean family Fabaceae. The tribe was first described in 1994 for the sole genus ''Wisteria'', but was greatly expanded in 2019 to include 13 genera, six of which were new. Five had previously been placed in the tribe Millettieae. Members of the tribe are climbers of various kinds. Some, like ''Wisteria'', are cultivated for their flowers. Description Members of the tribe Wisterieae are either woody lianas or sprawling climbing shrubs. All species have their flowers arranged in either true panicles or true racemes (as opposed to pseudopanicles or pseudoracemes). The tribe belongs to the Inverted repeat-lacking clade; all genera lack one 25 Base pair#Length measurements, kilobase long copy of the Chloroplast_DNA#Inverted_repeats, inverted repeat in the chloroplast genome, distinguishing them from genera in the tribe Millettieae, which do not lack this inverted repeat. Taxonomy The tribe was established in 1994 by X. Y ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Callerya Bonatiana
''Callerya bonatiana'' is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae, native to south-central and southeastern mainland China, Laos and Vietnam. It was first described in 1910 as ''Millettia bonatiana''. Taxonomy ''Callerya bonatiana'' was first described by Renato Pampanini in 1910 as ''Millettia bonatiana''. A 2019 molecular phylogenetic study found it to be the first diverging member of a narrowly circumscribed genus ''Callerya'', and so placed in that genus. A 2021 study obtained different results using chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) and nuclear ribosomal DNA (nrDNA). The cpDNA results agreed with the 2019 study where ''Callerya bonatiana'' was sister to the rest of the genus ''Callerya''; the nrDNA results placed ''Callerya bonatiana'' as sister to a larger clade, including ''Kanburia'', ''Whitfordiodendron'' and ''Afgekia sericea''. The left hand cladogram shows the tree using cpDNA, the right hand one the tree using nrDNA (with other genera omitted in both trees). ...
