Jedan stari hibrid prema najnovijim genetskim istraživanjima
A preliminary evaluation of the ancestry of a putative Sabal hybrid (Arecaceae: Coryphoideae), and the description of a new nothospecies, Sabal × brazoriensis
iz sažetka
"it seems to be a hybrid, but an old
one, with clear genetic distinctiveness. However, these results also suggest a closer affinity of the putative hybrid with S.
minor and S. palmetto than with S. mexicana, excluding the latter species from possible parentage. Results also suggest
that S. minor, despite its wide morphological diversity, is a clearly coherent species with minimal evidence of
introgression, except for Mexican material that appears to be introgressed with S. mexicana. Sabal palmetto may also
possess a complicated genetic history not necessarily reflected in its morphology."
