Phylogeny of Coreopsideae (Asteraceae) using ITS sequences suggests lability in reproductive characters

Abstract
Researches the phylogeny of the genus Coreopsis to describe relationships among 19 genera. The article concludes that characteristics of the flowers and fruit change more readily than more conservative characteristics of vegetative and photosynthetic traits.Suggested Citation
