ABSTRACT

Figure 11-1 Brassicales Phylogeny. Phylogeny of the 17 families (with 4,500 species) in the Brassicales using chloroplast rbcL, ndhF, and matK markers (Hall et al. 2004), with information about number of species, presence (yes) or absence (no) of particular glucosinolate classes and likely placement of Arabidopsis paleopolyploidy events (At-β and At-α). Citrus and Gossypium, from the sister orders Malvales and Sapindales, were used as outgroups for determining glucosinolate character states. Polyploidy is only indicated in reference to the Arabidopsis genome and only for the two most recent WGDs.
