Abstract

The main purpose is to formulate a hypothesis concerning the phylogenetic relationships among the different families, tribes and genera of the Dipsacales, based on new macromolecular data. Therefore, the ndhF chloroplast gene will be sequenced in selected taxa. These results will be compared with published rbcL sequence data. Moreover, a nuclear ribosomal gene will be sequenced. Finally, our macromolecular data will be combined in one cladistic analysis with morphological characters in order to postulate phylogenetic relationships within the Dipsacales
