Characterization, biogeography and character evolution of the South American species of Bonamia Thouars (Convolvulaceae)

Project summary:

The aim of this study is to delimit Bonamia in South America, focusing on biogeography and evolution of characters. For leaf anatomy analysis, the diphanization technique will be used. Phylogeny will be performed with marker not used for the genus. The results will contribute to knowledge of the Brazilian flora.
