Molecular and Morphological Data Improve the Classification of Plantagineae (Lamiales)

The tribe Plantagineae (Lamiales) is a group of plants with worldwide distribution, notorious for its complicated taxonomy and still unresolved natural history. We describe the result of a broadly sampled phylogenetic study of tribe. The expanded sampling dataset is based on the <i>trn</i&g...
