Abstract

Abstract:

Systematic position of the Rhoipteleaceae was investigated using nucleotide se-

quences of the chloroplast gene rbcL. Two sets of parsimony analyses were conducted, one

using Bauera as the outgroup and the other using Cercidiphyllum-Liquidambar as out-

groups. The results of these analyses are consistent. Rhoiptelea is allied with sampled Jug-

landaceous genera in the rbcL phylogeny, suggesting its close relationship with the Juglandaceae.

Key words: Rhoipteleaceae, rbcL sequence, “higher” hamamelids
