Systematics of Macropsychanthus (Leguminosae, Papilionoideae, Diocleae): taxonomic revision, phylogeny and biogeography
Project summary:
This research aims to provide the taxonomic revision, phylogeny and biogeography of Macropsychanthus, a Pantropical legume genus not deeply sampled before. This study will help to better undertanding the species relationships and dispersion events of this genus and will provide the basis for future studies in ecology and conservation.
