Molekulare Systematik und Evolution der Spezies der Familie Arthrodermataceae (Dermatophyten)Gräser, Yvonne 03 April 2002 (has links)
Dermatophyten sind keratinophile Pilze, d.h. sie besiedeln und infizieren die Haut und ihre Anhangsgebilde (Haare, Nägel) bei Mensch und Tier. Die derzeit häufigsten durch Dermatophyten hervorgerufenen Infektionen sind die Onychomykose, Tinea pedis, Tinea capitis und Tinea corporis. Da Antimykotika nicht bei alle Erregern von Dermatophytosen gleich wirksam sind, sollte im Vordergrund einer Behandlung zunächst die korrekte Erregerdifferenzierung stehen. Konventionell erfolgt diese Differenzierung über morphologische Merkmale wie Form und Farbe der auf dem Nährmedium gewachsenen Pilzkolonie, charakteristische mikromorphologische Elemente (Konidien) und biochemische Eigenschaften. Diese Merkmale werden jedoch oftmals nicht exprimiert. Damit ist in diesen Fällen keine Speziesdiagnose möglich. Eine zuverlässige Diagnostik sollte zudem das natürliche Klassifizierungssystem direkt reflektieren. Die Studien zur molekularen Biodiversität innerhalb der Dermatophyten sollten deshalb zur Klärung evolutionärer, taxonomischer und populationsgenetischer Zusammenhänge bei den verschiedenen Spezies der Gattungen Arthroderma, Trichophyton, Microsporum und Epidermophyten beitragen und helfen, geeignete DNA-Marker für die Anwendung in der medizinischen Diagnostik zu finden und einzusetzen. Dazu wurden verschiedene Methoden und Zielsequenzen genutzt, wie die Sequezierung der internal transcribed spacer (ITS) Region der ribosomalen DNA, das PCR-Fingerprinting, single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) und amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP)-Analyse. Es wurden weit über 200 Stämme, die bisher ca. 100 verschiedenen Taxa zuzuordnen waren, analysiert. Die molekularen Studien zeigen, dass die phylogenetisch ältesten Dermatophytenspezies geophil sind und sich die wärmeliebenden, zoophilen Arten erst später durch Koevolution mit warmblütigen Tieren entwickelt haben. Die anthropophilen scheinen dagegen erst mit Entstehung des Menschen evolviert und demzufolge am jüngsten zu sein. Damit kann man ihre geringe Biodiversität und ihr verändertes pathogenetisches Verhalten erklären. Es konnte gezeigt werden, dass die molekularen Phylogenie der Spezies besser mit ihrer Ökologie und dem Krankheitsbild als mit morphologischen Eigenschaften übereinstimmt und dass etliche Dermatophytenspezies überklassifiziert sind. Aus diesem Grunde wurde eine neue Systematik vorgeschlagen. Für den Nachweis des häufigsten Erreger, Trichophyton rubrum wurde eine Gensonde entwickelt, die in der medizinischen Diagnostik einsetzbar ist. / Dermatophytes are keratinophilic fungi which colonise and infect skin, hair and nails of man and animals. The most common infections caused by dermatophytes are onychomycosis, tinea pedis, tinea capitis and tinea corporis. Antimycotics may have different spectra of activity even in related dermatophyte species. Therefore a correct species identification is necessary before onset of antifungal therapy. Conventionally, the identification of dermatophytes is performed by the use of morphological features, such as shape and colour of the colony, micromorphological characteristics (conidia) and biochemical properties. However, these characters may not be expressed and then identification down to the species level is frequently impossible. Reliable diagnostics directly reflects the natural system. Studies of biodiversity in dermatophytes should therefore focus on elucidation of the connection of evolution, taxonomy and population genetics of the species of the genera Arthroderma, Trichophyton, Microsporum and Epidermophyten and thus contribute to development of stable DNA markers to be applied in routine diagnostics. Several methods and targets were applied such as sequencing of the internal transcribed spacer region (ITS) of the ribosomal DNA, PCR fingerprinting, single strand conformation polymor phism (SSCP) and amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) analysis. More than 200 strains belonging to about 100 dermatophyte taxa were analysed. Phylogenetically, the molecular data show the oldest dermatophyte species to be geophilic and subsequently co-evolved as zoophilic dermatophytes with warm blooded animals. In contrast, the anthropophilic dermatophytes are much younger as they evolved in association with humans. This hypothesis is supported by their low biodiversity and changing pathogenicity. The molecular data show correspondence between phylogeny of species and their ecology and clinical picture, rather than with morphological features. Many dermatophyte species were shown to be overclassified. A new systematic system was proposed. For the identification of Trichophyton rubrum, the most common dermatophyte species, an oligonucleotide probe was developed which is applicable in medical routine diagnostics.

Book-lung morphologyKamenz, Carsten 27 January 2010 (has links)
Die Morphologie der Buchlungen von Arachniden (Arachnida Lamarck, 1801 – Arthropoda, Chelicerata) wurde in der vorliegenden Dissertation einer streng vergleichenden Analyse unterzogen, welche mit Hilfe moderner Methoden eine neue Sicht auf die Phylogenie der Arachniden eröffnet. Aus dem Vergleich mit den potentiellen Schwestergruppen (Xiphosura, Eurypterida) und mit Skorpionsfossilien erweist sich der einmalige Landgang eines gemeinsamen Vorfahrens aller rezent terrestrischen Arachniden. Buchlungen-Daten von 200 rezenten + 2 fossilen Skorpionen, 16 Geißelspinnen (Amblypygi), 17 Geißelskorpionen (Thelyphonida), einem Schizomiden (Schizomida), einem ausgestorbenen Trigonotarbiden (Trigonotarbida) und der Außengruppe, den rezenten Pfeilschwanzkrebsen (Xiphosura), wurden zu einem illustrierten Katalog zusammengestellt. Die unüberschaubare Vielfalt der oft graduell variierenden Strukturen macht die eindeutige Definition der Merkmale und auftretenden Merkmalszustände notwendig. Es wurden folgende 5 Merkmale definiert: (1) die Oberflächen der Atemlamellen, (2) der Lamellenrand, (3) der posteriore Stigmenrand, (4) der anteriore Stigmenrand und (5) die Wand des Atriums. Hierbei tragen die Merkmale 1-3 mit ihrer unerwarteten Fülle innerhalb der Skorpione maßgeblich zur Aufklärung ihrer Verwandtschaftsverhältnisse bei. Ähnliches wird von den Merkmalen 4 und 5 bezogen auf die Uropygi s. lat. vermutet. Ein sechstes Merkmal (Sensillen/Poren) wurde definiert, doch nur vereinzelt erfasst. Raster-Elektronenmikroskopie diente der Erfassung der cuticulären Feinstruktur der Buchlungen. Die Struktur der Buchlungen im Gesamten wurde mittels histologischer Schnittserien und mit auf µCT basierenden 3D-Rekonstruktionen untersucht. Für die Untersuchung von Trigonotarbiden-Fossilien wurde eine Methode entwickelt, die 3D-Rekonstruktion aus Sequenzen von Mikrofotos in unterschiedlichen Fokusebenen generiert. / Strict comparative analyses of the morphology of arachnid book lungs (Arachnida Lamarck, 1801 - Arthropoda: Chelicerata) were carried out in the present doctoral thesis using modern methods, resulting in a new perspective on arachnid phylogeny. Comparisons with potential aquatic sistergroups (Xiphosura and/or Eurypterida) and fossil scorpions give rise to the hypothesis of the unique terrestrialization of ancestors, which is common for all arachnids. Data from 200 Recent + 2 extinct scorpions, 16 whip spiders (Amblypygi), 17 whip scorpions (Thely-phonida), 1 schizomid (Schizomida), 1 extinct trigonotarbid (Trigonotarbida) and 1 outgroup - horseshoe crab (Xiphosura) are assembled into an illustrated catalogue of arachnid book lungs. Following the observations of these gradually differing cuticular structures the vast variation of book-lung fine structure across Arachnida requires unequivocal definition of characters and character states. Five characters are defined, which are assigned to distinct homologous book-lung structures: (1) the surface structure of the respiratory lamellae, (2) structure of the distal edges of the lamellae, (3) the posterior edge of the spiracle, (4) the anterior edge of the spiracle and (5) the structure of the wall lining the atrial chamber. Especially the book-lung characters 1-3 contain unexpected information, which helps resolve relationships within Scorpiones to a high degree, and characters 4 and 5 are of considerable importance for Uropygi s. lat. One sixth character (sensilla/pores) is mentioned, but sporadically examined. However, cuticular book-lung fine structure is studied using SEM, the gross morphology is reassessed using histological sectioning and 3D-reconstructions based on µCT. For investigations on trigonotabid fossils a new method yielding 3D-reconstructions from stacks of subsequent focal layers was developed.

Mitogenomic analysis of decapod phylogenyShen, Hong 15 May 2012 (has links)
Für eine umfassende Untersuchung der Phylogenie der Decapoda wurden von mir die mitochondrialen Genome von 13 Dekapoden sequenziert. Zusammen mit den in der GenBank verfügbaren Sequenzen von 31 Dekapoden und dem von der Universität Bonn zur Verfügung gestellten mitochondrialen Genom von Dromia personata deckt dieser Datensatz alle großen Teilgruppen der Decapoda ab. Maximum likelihood (ML)-Analysen und Bayesian inference (BI)-Analysen der Nucleotidsequenzen und Aminosäuresequenzen ergaben bezüglich der Verwandtschaft der hochrangigen Taxa ähnliche Topologien: (((((((Anomala, Brachyura), Thalassinida: Gebiidea) Thalassinida: Axiidea), Astacidea), Achelata), Stenopodidea), Caridea), Dendrobranchiata). Gleichwohl wurde mit den Polychelida ein problematisches Taxon mit ungewissen Verwandtschaftsbeziehungen identifiziert. Auf der Eben der Unterordnungen sind die Thalassinida paraphyletisch, was mit einigen morphologischen und einigen jüngeren molekularen Studien konsistent ist, alle anderen gebräuchlichen Taxa sind monophyletisch. Es handelt sich um eine Inversion, die sich vom S-E-F tRNA cluster bis zum I-Q-M tRNA cluster erstreckt und in Procambarus fallax f. virginalis und Homarus gammarus auftritt. Im Vergleich mit dem Genarrangement des Limulus polyphemus zeigen beide Astaciden in dieser Region exakt dieselbe Inversion wie der Priapulide Priapulus caudatus, die daher innerhalb der Ecdysozoa als konvergent angenommen werden muss. Auch neben dieser Inversion innerhalb der Astacidea zeigen die Genarrangements aller verfügbaren Dekapoden mehrere interessante Eigenschaften. Um die beobachteten einzigartigen genomischen Eigenschaften zu erklären, schlage ich mit dem „inversion triggered duplication“ Model ein neues Modell für Gen-Rearrangements vor. / For a comprehensive study of decapod phylogeny at the mitochondrial genome level, I have sequenced the mitochondrial genome of 13 decapods. Together with available sequences of 31 decapods from GenBank, and the mitochondrial genome of Dromia personata provided by the Bonn University, the dataset now cover all major decapod taxa. Maximum likelihood (ML) and Bayesian inference (BI) of the nucleotide and amino acid datasets reveal similar topologies at the higher level relationships: (((((((Anomala, Brachyura), Thalassinida: Gebiidea) Thalassinida: Axiidea), Astacidea), Achelata), Stenopodidea), Caridea), Dendrobranchiata). Nevertheless, one problematic taxon, Polychelida, with ambiguous affinities is recognized. At the lower level, most taxa are monophyletic, whereas the Thalassinida is paraphyletic, which is consistent with some morphological and molecular results. An inversion spanning from S-E-F tRNA cluster to the I-Q-M tRNA cluster occurred in Procambarus fallax f. virginalis, Homarus gammarus, and one priapulid Priapulus caudatus. Compared with the gene arrangement of the horseshoe crab Limulus polyphemus, both astacids and the priapulid exhibit the same inversion, which is therefore supposed to be a convergent event of the clade Astacidea and Priapulida among Ecdysozoa. Other than this notable feature observed in astacids, the gene arrangements in all available decapods show some interesting characters. To explain these unique genomic features observed here, a new gene rearrangement model is proposed, which is called the “inversion triggered duplication” model.

Characterization of the life cycle and cellular interactions of AM fungi with the reduced mycorrhizal colonization (rmc) mutant of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.)Manjarrez-Martinez, Ma De Jesus. January 2007 (has links)
The broad aim of the work described in this thesis was to use the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) defective rmc tomato to explore the development and function of different types of fungus-plant interfaces (phenotypes) and to characterize the cellular modifications preceding colonization of rmc by a range of different AM fungi. Three main patterns of colonization with rmc have been described: 1) Pen- phenotype in which the AM fungus is restricted to the root surface with several attempts to penetrate the epidermal cells without success; 2) Coiphenotype where AM fungi penetrate the epidermis but cannot develop cortical colonization; and 3) Myc+ phenotype (with G. intraradices WFVAM23), where the AM fungus penetrates the cortex and forms a “normal” colonization after a delayed penetration of the epidermal cells (Review of literature). Little is known about cellular interactions, nutrient transfer or the ability of the fungi to complete their life cycles in the different phenotypes. These aspects were the main foci of this work. In addition further fungal isolates were screened to asses their ability to colonize rmc. The first experiments involved compartmented pots to follow the fungal life cycle, production of external mycelium and spores in the different rmc phenotypes (Chapter 3). The results showed that in the Pen- and Coiphenotypes, AM fungi are unable to form spores to complete the life cycle. However, in the Coi-phenotype, the fungus remained alive up to week 18, suggesting that some C transfer occurred. The fungus forming the Myc+ phenotype, G. intraradices WFVAM23, was able to produce spores, although they were significantly smaller than those produced with the wild-type tomato. The results suggested that arbuscules are essential for completion of the fungal life cycle. Labeled 32P was used to determine whether arbuscules are also essential for P transfer (Chapter 4). A compartmented pot system was used in which only fungal hyphae but not roots could obtain 32P. 32P was found in the shoots of rmc inoculated with S. calospora (Coi- phenotype), indicating that interfaces other than arbuscules can be involved in transfer of P. A nurse pot system was used to obtain synchronized colonization to determine how long AM fungi stay alive during the interactions with rmc and to elucidate the cellular modifications preceding colonization of rmc by a range of different AM fungi (Chapter 5). The results showed that rmc did attract the AM fungi, that the plant nucleus moved to the middle of the plant cell only after fungal penetration of plant roots and that callose deposition in rmc was not involved in blocking the AM fungi. Fourteen AM fungi with different taxonomic affiliations and fourteen different G. intraradices isolates were screened to try to relate phylogeny of AM fungi with phenotypes in rmc (Chapter 6). There were a large number of interactions, depending on the inoculated AM fungi, and although there were some similarities in the rmc phenotypes within phylogenetic groups, there was no clear relationship between phylogeny and development of interactions with rmc. This study showed the following. 1) Arbuscules/arbusculate coils are necessary for the completion of the AM fungal cycle. However, intraradical hyphae also participate in transfer of both P and C as demonstrated with the Coi- phenotype. 2) rmc clearly attracted AM fungi and the fungi stay alive and induce plant cellular responses such as nuclear movement only after penetrating rmc roots. 3) Plant defense responses such as callose deposition are not involved in blocking AM fungi in rmc; and 4) there was no relationship between the phenotypes described in rmc and phylogeny of the Glomeromycota. / http://proxy.library.adelaide.edu.au/login?url= http://library.adelaide.edu.au/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?BBID=1292816 / Thesis(Ph.D.)-- School of Earth and Environmental Sciences, 2007.

Histoire évolutive de l'Aegagre (Capra aegagrus) et de la chèvre (C. hircus) basée sur l'analyse du polymorphisme de l'ADN mitochondrial et nucléaire : Implications pour la conservation et pour l'origine de la domesticationNaderi, Saeid 11 December 2007 (has links) (PDF)
La chèvre (Capra hircus) est l'un des premiers ongulés domestiqués il y a plus de 10 000 ans dans le croissant fertile. L'histoire de la domestication a été abordée par l'analyse comparée de la diversité génétique des chèvres domestiques et de celle de son ancêtre sauvage (Capra aegagrus). Nous avons tout d'abord mis au point une méthode standard permettant d'établir une nomenclature claire des haplogroupes mitochondriaux, et aussi de définir de nouveaux haplogroupes lorsque cela s'avère pertinent. Cette méthode a été utilisée pour analyser 2430 séquences d'ADN mitochondrial (fragment HV1 de la région de contrôle), incluant 946 nouveaux échantillons issus de régions très peu étudiées jusqu'ici (notamment le Croissant Fertile). Les haplogroupes mitochondriaux présentent une forte diversité génétique qui est essentiellement distribuée entre haplogroupes au sein des régions géographiques. Même avec un jeu de donnée aussi important que celui-ci, il est très difficile de comprendre l'histoire de la domestication en se basant uniquement sur l'analyse des animaux domestiques. L'étude conjointe de la diversité des chèvres et de leurs ancêtres sauvages (les aegagres) ont apporté les informations permettant de reconstituer l'histoire de la domestication. Ces données ont été acquises à partir de 487 aegagres issus de 43 localités recouvrant l'ensemble de l'aire de répartition de l'espèce. Chez les 308 aegagres génétiquement proches des chèvres, nous avons trouvé la signature d'une croissance démographique plus forte que chez les autres aegagres. Cela suggère un nouveau scénario de domestication de la chèvre en deux étapes. La domestication sensu stricto aurait été précédée d'une phase de gestion des troupeaux sauvages par l'homme (la pré-domestication). Ces processus se sont déroulés sur une vaste zone comprenant l'Est de l'Anatolie, l'ensemble du Zagros, le Plateau Iranien Central et le Nord Est de l'Iran, où les aegagres génétiquement proches des chèvres sont toujours présents. L'analyse comparée de la diversité nucléaire et mitochondriale chez les chèvres et les aegagres démontre qu'une grande partie de la diversité génétique sauvage a été capturée par les domestiques. Il n'y a donc pas eu de goulot d'étranglement au moment de la domestication de la chèvre. Ce scénario est très différent des modèles précédents qui mettaient en avant des processus à échelle réduite, avec des centres de domestication très localisés et une forte réduction de diversité génétique.

Mutational dynamics and phylogenetic utility of plastid introns and spacers in early branching eudicotsBarniske, Anna-Magdalena 22 January 2010 (has links) (PDF)
Major progress has been made during the last twenty years towards a better understanding of the evolution of angiosperms. Early molecular-phylogenetic analyses revealed three major groups, with eudicots as well as monocots being monophyletic, arisen from a paraphyletic group of dicotyledonous angiosperms (= basal angiosperms). Consistently, numerous phylogenetic studies based on sequence data have recovered the eudicot-clade and increased confidence in its existence. Furthermore this clade, which contains about 75% of angiosperm species diversity, is characterized by the possession of tricolpate and tricolpate-derived pollen and has thus also been called the tricolpate clade. Based on molecular-phylogenetic investigations several lineages, such as Ranunculales, Proteales (= Proteaceae, Nelumbonaceae, Platanaceae), Sabiaceae, Buxaceae plus Didymelaceae, and Trochodendraceae plus Tetracentraceae were shown as belonging to a early-diverging grade (early-diverging or “basal” eudicots), while larger groups like asterids, Caryophyllales, rosids, Santalales, and Saxifragales were identified as being members of a highly supported core clade, the so called “core eudicots”. Nevertheless, phylogenetic relationships among several lineages of the eudicots remained difficult to resolve. This thesis is mainly concentrated on fully resolving the branching order among the different clades of the early-diverging eudicots as well as on clarifying phylogenetic and systematic conditions within several lineages, based on phylogenetic reconstructions using sequence data of rapidly-evolving and non-coding molecular regions, such as spacers and introns. Commonly, fast-evolving and non-coding DNA was used to infer relationships among species and genera, as practised in chapter 3, due to the assumption of being inapplicable caused by putative high levels of homoplasy through multiple substitutions and frequent microstructural changes resulting in non-alignability. However, during the last few years numerous molecular-phylogenetic studies were able to present well resolved angiosperm trees on the basis of rapidly-evolving and non-coding regions from the large single copy region of the chloroplast genome comparable to multi-gene analyses concerning topology and statistical support. Mutational dynamics in spacers and introns was revealed to follow complex patterns related to structural constraints like the introns secondary structure. Therefore extreme sequence variability was always confirmed to mutational hotspots that could be excluded from calculations. Moreover it became clear that combining these non-coding regions with the fast-evolving matK gene can lead to further resolved and statistical supported trees.
Chapter 1 deals with the placement of Sabiales inside the early-diverging eudicot grade, while investigating mutational dynamics as well as the utility of different kinds of non-coding and rapidly-evolving DNA within deep-level phylogenetics. It was done by analyzing a combination of nine regions from the large single copy region of the chloroplast genome, including spacers, the sole group I intron, three group II introns and the coding matK for a sampling of 56 taxa. The presented topology is in mainly congruence with the hypothesis on phylogenetic relationships among early-branching eudicots that was gained through the application of a reduced set of five non-coding and fast-evolving molecular markers, including the plastid petD (petB-petD spacer, petD group II intron) plus the trnL-F (trnL group I intron, trnL-F spacer) region and the matK gene. It showed a grade of Ranunculales, Sabiales, Proteales, Trochodendrales and Buxales. The current study differs in showing Sabiales as sister to Proteales in all phylogenetic analyses, in contrast to a second-branching inside early-diverging eudicots and a Bayesian tree displaying Sabiales branching after Proteales. All three hypotheses were tested concerning their likelihood. None of them was shown as being significantly declinable. Thus, albeit the number of characters and informative sites was doubled in comparision to the five-region investigation, the exact position of the Sabiales remained to be resolved with confidence. However, the advanced analyses of the phylogenetic structure of the three different non-coding partitions in comparison to coding genes resulted in the recognition of a significantly higher mean phylogenetic signal per informative character within spacers and introns than in the frequently applied slowly-evolving rbcL gene. The fast-evolving and well performing matK gene is shown to be nested within the non-coding partitions in this respect. Interestingly, the least constrained spacers displayed considerably less phylogenetic structure than both, the group I intron and the group II introns. Molecular evolution is again shown to follow certain patterns in angiosperms, as indicated by the occurrence of mutational hotspots and their connection to structural and functional constraints. This is especially shown for the group II introns studied where highly dynamic sequence parts were rather found in loops than stems.
The aim of chapter 2 was to present a comprehensive reconstruction of the phylogenetic relationships inside the order of Ranunculales, the first-branching clade of the early-diverging eudicots, with an emphasis on the evolution of growth forms within the group. Currently, the order comprises seven families (Ranunculaceae, Berberidaceae, Menispermaceae, Lardizabalaceae, Circaeasteraceae – not included due to lacking plant material, Eupteleaceae, Papaveraceae) containing predominantly herbaceous groups as well as trees and lianescent/shrubby forms. A surprising result that emerged due to the increased use of molecular data within systematics during the last twenty years is the inclusion of the woody Eupteleaceae into Ranunculales. Because of its adaptation to wind pollination it was previously placed next to Hamamelididea. Although phylogenetic hypotheses agreed in the exclusion of Eupteleaceae and the predominantly herbaceous Papaveraceae from a core clade the branching order within early-diverging Ranunculales remained a question to be answered. Thus phylogenetic reconstructions based on molecular data of 50 taxa (including outgroup), applying the well-performing non-coding petD and trnL-F as well as the trnK/matK-psbA region including the coding matK, were carried out. The comprehensive sampling resulted in fully resolved and highly supported phylogenies in both, maximum parsimony and model based approaches, with family relations within the core clade being identical and Euptelea appearing as first branching lineage. However, the relationships among the early-diverging Ranunculales could not be resolved with confidence, a result in line with the finding made in chapter 1. The topology was further resolved as Lardizabalaceae being sister to the remaining members of the order, followed by Menispermaceae, Berberidaceae and Ranunculaceae, the latter sharing a sistergroup relationship. Inside the mainly lianescent Lardizabalaceae the shrubby Decaisnea was clearly depicted as first-branching. The systematic controversial Glaucidium and Hydrastis are shown to be early-diverging members of the Ranunculaceae.
A central goal of chapter 3 was to test phylogenetic relationships among the members of the ranunculaceous tribe Anemoneae. Currently it consists of the subtribes Anemoninae including Anemone, Hepatica, Pulsatilla and Knowltonia, and Clematidinae, consisting of Archiclematis, Clematis and Naravelia. Furthermore the position and taxonomic rank of several lineages inside the subtribe Anemoninae were examined. Since recent comprehensive molecular-phylogenetic investigations have been carried out for the members of Clematidinae or Anemoninae, 63 species representing all major lineages of the two subtribes were included into analyses. Calculations were carried out on the basis of molecular data of the nuclear ribosomal ITS1&2 and the plastid atpB-rbcL intergenic spacer region. Phylogenetic reconstructions resulted in the recognition of two distinct clades within the tribe, thus corroborating the formation of the two subtribes. Within the subtribe Anemoninae the traditional genera Knowltonia, Pulsatilla and Hepatica are confidently shown to be nested within the genus Anemone. The preliminary classification of the genus, currently consisting of the two subgenera Anemone and Anemonidium, is complemented by the subgenus Hepatica.
