Allium pallasii and A. caricifolium -Surprisingly Diverse Old Steppe Species, Showing a Clear Geographical Barrier in the Area of Lake Zaysan

Polymorph s.l. from monotypic sect. was studied using a wide spectrum of methods and divided into two clearly morphologically, geographically, cytologically and genetically isolated species: s. str.-North-East Kazakhstan, Western Siberia, and the Altai Mountains; -Kyrgyzstan, Northwest China, South-...

Description
Summary:Polymorph s.l. from monotypic sect. was studied using a wide spectrum of methods and divided into two clearly morphologically, geographically, cytologically and genetically isolated species: s. str.-North-East Kazakhstan, Western Siberia, and the Altai Mountains; -Kyrgyzstan, Northwest China, South-East Kazakhstan until Zaysan Lake in the east. Despite serious genetic differences, both species are sisters and are related to species of the sect. (Subg. ). differs from s. str. by taller stems, dense inflorescence, and with filaments longer than perianth. The possible phylogenetic reasons for the separation of these species are discussed. A nomenclature analysis of synonyms was carried out.
