New data on Legousia and Triodanis

Linda Nhon and Andy Crowl showcased our preliminary results on the work on Legousia and Triodanis (Campanulaceae) at the UF Undergraduate Scholar Program event.  We are getting interesting results!  The poster is only showing our preliminary chloroplast tree but we have very interesting nuclear trees too, based on PPR alleles.  For example, Legousia is back to be consistently monophyletic. We will show a more detailed poster at the next Annual Botany Meeting in Idaho. This work is also co-authored with Romey Haberle (Pacific Lutheran University, WA) and Guilhem Mansion (Berlin Botanic Garden, Germany).  More to come!
