Resolving intergeneric relationships in the aervoid clade and the backbone of Ptilotus (Amaranthaceae): evidence from whole plastid genomes and morphology

The informally named “aervoid clade” in Amaranthaceae includes ~134 species in five genera: Ptilotus (~120 spp.), Aerva (11 spp.) and the monotypic Nothosaerva, Omegandra, and Kelita. The relationships of the small aervoid genera to the large genus Ptilotus, and relationships between major clades wi...
