Abstract excerpt
The phylogenetic positions of Japanese Abies species (A. firma, A. homolepis, A. veitchii, A. sachalinensis, and A. mariesii) were revealed based on nucleotide sequences of chloroplast DNA. First, rbcL sequences of 24 Abies species worldwide were analyzed to clarify the phylogenetic position of the Japanese Abies within this genus. While 4 of the Japanese species formed a monophyletic group with almost no...
