“…Although A. roylei Stearn was classified under Allium subgenus Polyprason section Oreiprason according to the passport information in the GRIN of the USDA-ARS, this species was closely grouped with other Allium species in subgenus Cepa section Cepa with both ITS and matK analyses. The same result was also obtained in previous studies (Havey, 1992;Gurushidze et al, 2007;Li et al, 2010).…”

“…Phylogenetic relationships among Allium species based on both ITS and matK analyses were in agreement with the previous studies using the ITS region and restriction enzyme analysis of the chloroplast genome (Havey, 1992;Gurushidze et al, 2007;Li et al, 2010). Previously, A. vavilovii and A. cepa were grouped together without any polymorphism by Havey (1992) and closely clustered by Gurushidze et al (2007).…”

IntroductionAbout 750 species have been recognized within the genus Allium L. (Stearn, 1992) and at least 20 of these species are edible (Fritsch and Friesen, 2002). Economically imported and widely cultivated edible Allium species are onion (A. cepa L.), garlic (A. sativum L.), leek (A. porrum L.), chive (A. schoenoprasum L.), Chinese chive (A. tuberosum Rottl. ex Spreng), rakkyo (A. chinense G.Don) and Japanese bunching onion (A. fistulosum L.). Remaining edible Allium species are either cultivated locally or collected from wild for local consumption.The phylogeny of the genus Allium has been revised using several molecular approaches. The initial molecular approach for phylogenetic analyses of the genus Allium was based on restriction enzyme analysis of chloroplast DNA (Havey, 1991;von Berg et al., 1996). In these studies, the phylogenetic relationships among Allium species were found to be generally in agreement with their previous traditional taxonomic classification. Later nucleotide sequences of the some conserved DNA regions were utilized for the phylogenetic reconstruction of the genus Allium. The nucleotide sequence of the nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer region (ITS) was one of the most commonly used DNA regions for discrimination of the

“…Allium consists of perennial herbs mostly characterized by tunicate bulbs, narrow basal leaves, umbellate or head-like inflorescences, flowers with 6 free or almost free tepals, and an onion-like odour and taste due to the presence of cystine sulphoxides (Li et al, 2010). Many studies assessing morphological and anatomical characters of Allium species have been performed and numerous data have so far been published (Friesen, 1995;Mathew, 1996;Fritsch and Friesen, 2002;Kovtonyuk et al, 2009).…”

In this study genetic diversity and interspecific relationships of 11 Allium L. species from Khorassan province of Iran including 32 accessions were investigated by inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers. Nine ISSR primers produced a total of 80 polymorphic markers and revealed high polymorphism among the studied species. The average gene diversity, effective number of alleles and Shannon's information index were 0.2, 1.28 and 0.3, respectively. Allium kuhsorkhense exhibited the greatest level of variation (H e : 0.18), whereas A. stipitatum demonstrated the lowest level of variability (H e : 0.05). UPGMA (Unweighted Pair Group Method with Arithmetic mean) analysis showed that Allium accessions have a similarity range of 0.60 to 0.95. Allium scapriscapum composed the most distant group in the dendrogram. The clustered groups of Allium species clearly reflect the recent taxonomic concept of the genus at the subgenus and section levels. The present study showed that the ISSR technique is an effective molecular approach for analyzing genetic diversity and relationship in Allium species.

Morphological and molecular data reveal a new species of Allium (Amaryllidaceae) from SW Anatolia, Turkey

2015

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Allium undulatitepalum (Amaryllidaceae) is described as a new species from the Antalya Province of Turkey. It belongs to the section Melanocrommyum and is endemic to the south-western region of Turkey. The new species is a close relative of A. orientale, but according to results of the ITS sequences, and based on the morphological differences presented in the description, it is clearly different from its relative. A phylogenetic tree, distribution map, illustrations, pollen and seed microphotographs, karyo-morphology, as well as notes on the biogeography and ecology of the new species are provided.
