Accession used for genomic work, otherwise the same accessions were used for genomic work and genome size estimation (RBG, Kew = Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew; L. Hill = accessions acquired from Laurence Hill).

Chromosome numbers counted by us or taken from the literature (lit.).

§Genome size taken from Zonneveld et al. (2005).
