Uncovering phylogenetic relationships and genetic diversity of water dropwort using phenotypic traits and SNP markers.

The water dropworts Oenanthe linearis Wall. ex DC. and O. javanica (Blume) DC. are aquatic perennial herbs that have been used in China as vegetables and traditional medicines. However, their phylogenetic relationships and genetic diversity are poorly understood. Here, we presented the phenotypic tr...
