摘 要:Selaginella is the largest and most taxonomically complex genus in *** fact that over 750 species are currently treated in a single genus makes Selaginellales/Selaginellaceae unique in *** we assembled a dataset of six existing and newly sampled plastid and nuclear loci with a total of 684 accessions(74%increase of the earlier largest sampling)representing ca.300 species to infer a new *** evolution of 10 morphological characters is studied in the new phylogenetic *** major results include:(1)the nuclear and plastid phylogenies are congruent with each other and combined analysis well resolved and strongly supported the relationships of all but two major clades;(2)the Sinensis group is resolved as sister to *** with strong support in two of the three analyses;(3)most morphological characters are highly homoplasious but some characters alone or combinations of characters well define the major clades in the family;and(4)an infrafamilial classification of Selaginellaceae is proposed and the currently defined Selaginella *** split into seven subfamilies(corresponding to the current six subgenera t the Sinensis group)and 19 genera(the major diagnosable clades)with nine new species-poor *** support the conservation of Selaginella with a new type,***,to minimize nomenclatural *** provide a key to subfamilies and genera,images illustrating their morphology,their morphological and geographical synopses,a list of constituent species,and necessary new *** new classification will hopefully facilitate communication,promote further studies,and help conservation.
