Figure 1. Phylogram resulting from Maximum likelihood phylogenetic analysis of ITS cloning data.

There are seven main clades within Lespedeza (Clades I, II, III, IV, V, and Pseudogroups (A,B).They are expanded in Figs 2, 3, 4. Support values (maximum likelihood bootstrap support, maximum parsimony jackknife support and posterior probability) are shown along the branches. Dash shows that the bootstrap value or jackknife value is lower than 50. Pseudogenes are marked in red.
